Are the Aints for real?

They survived a fluke missed FG vs the Redskins to win...

They got beat last week by the Cowboys...

Now... 17-17 at the 2 minute warning vs a 2-12 TB Bucs team???

He scored early... but only has 6 rushes on the day. He might have been.

And now a missed FG by the Saints.

Going to OT. What a time to have a team fall apart.

I believe he was injured.

Now Caddy is having his way with the Saints in OT.... Bucs moving it down the field with ease.

 

[Viking4Alpha]

I really like the Saints but damn they have been straight GARBAGE in the second half of the season.

 

[P_Manning 18]

WOW

FG Bucs.

13-2 for the Saints. 2 str8 losses.

 

[mstng99tim]

LMAO!!!!! The Bucs won!!!!!

 

[justinmandawg]

Not a Saints fan but "any given Sunday".

 

[Card Magnet]

Pierre Thomas was out of the game with bruised ribs, in case anybody was still wondering. Although having him in doesn't win them this game.

 

[G $MONEY$]

wow shocking!!! Where the Saints not winning by a lot earlier in the game? I thought i remember seeing that.

 

[KandKCards]

I think they went up 14 or 17-0 early and then allowed the comeback. Proof that it's bad to peak too early. I'd be surprised if the Saints won a playoff game this year.

 

[Rickzcards]

The Saints will not win the championship due to their soft defense. You can count on that.

 

[cowboysrule48]

I've been saying for 8+ weeks that the Saints are overrated. They've looked horrible against the run every time I've watched them play this year. They should have lost to Washington and Miami. They could have also easily lost to the Rams and Falcons earlier this year.

Congrats on knowing more then every other football expert in the country that had them at the top of the power rankings. They could have lost those games but they didnt. Didnt the Cowboys need overtime to beat the Chiefs? It is the NFL.... any given sunday...... that is why they play the games. Yea the Saints got beat by a crappy team but they have tons of defensive injuries. Although today they didnt show up in the second half. Hopefully the bye week will get them rested and refocused for the playoffs.

 

[lumm0x]

Saints definitely did not play 60 minutes of football yesterday and at times they were utterly embarassing. Injuries were not to blame. Some guys on the field looked completely disinterested for stretches and just opened the doors for Tampa to get back in that game. Bounces finally went against us when before we were the recipient of the charity in some close wins. I hate to be in the position where likely we must win at Carolina not just to preserve home field, but to not back into the playoffs losing 3 straight.

I'm just hopeful that this late season breakdown is the tonic required to re-light the fire under the butts of the team for the playoffs. Nothing can be taken for granted in this league.

 

[schmidtfan20]

defense wins championships, I can only think of the Rams in recent times to buck that trend. Saints aint it.
