Thoughts and Speculations

I think a lot of our fans thought we were invincible, rightly so considering we came into this game with an eight game winning streak.. realistically I gave the Panthers a 35% chance to win. Sadly the game turned out like I thought it would.. This game was a very odd game. Something was off about that game and I can't put my finger on it. I felt like our offensive and defensive play calling was different. The play calling, the scheming, everything was different. It looked like we didn't even game plan for the Saints. I can't believe I'm saying this but, I feel like the team let Cam down. That defense didn't look right.. that isn't how we play defense. We looked so out of sync. I'm really not that disappointed. I just wish fought a little harder.. I have no doubt in my mind we win our last three and finish 12-4 It doesn't show on the stat sheet but, Hardy played his heart out.

 

I'll be the first to say the Saints beat us fair and square, I just feel like we beat ourselves too.

 

That's not how we play Football, so fuging out of sync..

I'm disappointed in the game, mostly because we didn't even compete and because it was torture listening to the announcers talk up the Saints all night (rightly so, much as I hate to say it). I agree we did not look like our normal selves out there. Something did seem off, and similarly I can't pinpoint what it was. We were out of sync, too, like you said.

Seriously though, who felt like that game was weird? I didn't feel like it was Rivera going back to his old ways. Something else happened. I don't see how a team can be that out of sync for a division game. Maybe it was just one of those games. I remember back in the day the 13-1 Pats faced the 2-10 Dolphins in New England and the Dolphins outscored them bu 25+ points. John Madden said it perfectly. "When you play 16 games one of them you're just going to come out flat and not look like yourself"

Kuechly looked sick or something. Seeing his face before the game he just looked pale, like had a stomach flu or something. He didnt look right at all

I didn't think we were invincible. But we didn't play like we could be .

 

We should have gone for it on that 2nd field goal. We're playing the Saints, 6 points it's going to mean anything. Also we didn't take shots down field. This is why I thought Cam should have aired it out. About the refs, it seems every time we made a play they had something to say about it. 

 

I also have no doubt in my mind now that the Saints are nothing but a cheap and dirty team. Their worthless kicker almost took Ginn's head off and their scrub went for Stew's knee like a POS.

 

 

I hope we break Brees next game. Don't even care if we win, just get Kraken to straight up Bane his ass.

This was the first game I've ever seen where Cam didn't start the game off smiling or smile at all.. Even in the heat of the moment he smiles.

    • As much as I would love to sit here and bash on Young.  I can't.   He is absolutely a part of this team winning.  He is the cool hand leading the offense along with the hammer, Rico.  He's making plays on 3rd and 4th downs, that are absolutely helping thus team win.  Is Bryce playing as well as we'd like? Nope. Although he had only 1 week off from a high ankle sprain.   No question he was 100% in the Greenbay game.  I'm not even sure where the team would find a clear upgrade over Byrce.  He is a leader.  In the 4th quarter, he has ice in his veins.  He is a part of why our team is enjoyable to watch again.  Without him, we wouldn't be winning.    Anyways.  Y'all enjoy yet another thread designed to tear down the man. 
    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
