No we didn't lose by the fieldgoal he didn't kick. We got a saftey after that which gave us 2 instead of 3 (and we got the ball back) so even if we had kicked it we would have lost by 1 instead of 2. The reason we lost was stupid play calls, Dumb Penalties (Jason David), 2 missed filedgols by Gramatica, and the fact that we have no friggin defense or ground game! Oh and Reggies fumble that got returned for a touchdown, that didn't help either.

Am I the only one wondering why Sean Payton gets a pass when it comes to any criticism from the local New Orleans media? His record is 18-17 in three years. Is that supposed to be great or even good? But I see no one questioning whether this man should be the coach. He fails to win with a good offense. He doesn't learn from his mistakes. He's still pounding away on short yardage situations even when it's obvious the front line can't be trusted to blow a hole in those situations. Has he heard of passing on second and one or third and one? Why not fake and throw to the end zone at the end of the Denver game instead of running on third down? Why did we go for a touchdown before the half instead of a field goal.? You don't get to the goal line and fail to score at all. Doesn't anyone see we lost by the field goal he didn't kick? This coach is responsible for the last two losses and I don't hear a peep from the media.

I feel your pain, but I think the bad coaching decision is being pigheaded enough to think that Pierre or Reggie are going to get that yard on 3rd and one in a bunch formation when the "D" stacks the line to stop the run. Am I the only person that has seen this offense get consistently stuffed on third or fourth and one, even in the preseason? If you are going to run, go spread formation two receiver set to give the "D" something to think about. Furthermore you drive the ball about 50 yards passing and can't be stopped, Why in the hell is two of your last three plays of the game winning drive runs! We do have a tremendous amount of weapons in the passing game; Reggie, Patton, Devery, Lance, and not to mention who I thought should get the ball, SHOCKEY. WTF!
One bright spot because I am a fan for life, look at the remaining schedule. Prediction 4 losses MAX!

I've been a saints fan since i was born in 1982 everybody in my family are saints fans to the bone . i 'm just very upset with what sean payton is doing with McAllister not giving him playing time at all or even when we need one yard and its third down .He needs to stop with the excusses and let him play.Thats a shame one of the classess guys in the NFL is get treated like he is a rookie again backing up Ricky Wiliams. Bush is not a McAllister and P. Thomas is alright but hes not a McAllister nether meaning they might be faster and quicker then him but they can not open up the run game like him at all period. Anybody that is a saints fans know what McAllister can do .Thats a shame ....................1# saints fans about to hang it up for the season if they keep this up to one of our good guys . ....
