Tons of speed and pressure with defenders flying to the ball and tackling like crazy.
Drew Brees is the just the right QB to use the cover 2 against. I think he showed tonight that he is more of a deep threat QB than a surgical strike QB. The Cover 2 plays into stopping the Saints' strengths.

I prefer a Dominating 3-4 where the Quaterback is eating dirt every play.
Or they didn't run the ball with Deuce enough. I was shocked how Payton didn't attack b/w the tackles-isn't this the blueprint to beat the Colts?
That Colts team exposed a number of weaknesses in this New Orleans team.
Jason David's exploits have been well chronicled here on this board, but he wasn't alone.
That O-lineman - #78, Stinchcomb? Gawd, how much are they paying him? When not doing his best rendition as a revolving door, he was awesome as the posing Cigar Store Indian.
Yes, the play-calling left more than a little to be desired. And on the other side of the ball, the Colts O-line was simply having their way with the Saints' front 7 for the better part of the evening.
All of which caused me to wonder, just what were they doing upstairs?
I will grant you, the Colts are the better team, all other things being equal. But after this (even tho it was the first game of the season), I must confess the gap looks huge.
I'm forced to reconsider my projections of this Saints team, and right now see them at 6 - 10, or maybe 7 - 9, if the gods smile upon them.
They've got a lot of work to do before I can upgrade them from that level.
The Colts got a big win, and they deserve to enjoy it and bask in the praise. Having said that, however.....
That might well have been a completely different game if Reggie Bush had showed up.
And Kelly Clarkson's got a big fat azz. Did anyone see her in the kickoff special?
She's been on the Manginni diet!
