Game Day Thread Official Post Game Thread- Saints beat the Pats

[festy1986]

Both

Here in new England? Yes. Only one of them has a supwrbowl post Brady NE era though.

Where are the fake expert homers before saying Godchaux was stout on the run and our answer at NT ??? So many examples including this one where we don't need to waste multiple games to find out obvious things. Next up, Bentley sucks, Durant sucks, and Herron sucks . And also the OC.

Josh McDaniels' job is absolutely on the line. Completely exposed and out of excuses without brady.

Josh isn't going anywhere. Good lord

Who said he was a 3-4 NT?

Could not have caught the Saints at a better time. Many key players out. Not home for weeks due to the floods. Home game in Foxboro. And this team lays an egg. Very disappointing.

That being said if Jones actually has a half decent oline and quality play calling they would have been competitive. Not sure when they get NFL caliber linemen? This season or next?

At least the Chefs lost today!

Chiefs are 1-2, lost to the Chargers at home, and to make matters worse for the Chiefs, Reid was rushed to the hospital after the game. And the Chiefs have an all world QB, all world WR and all world TE, and yet are still 1-2. Weird season, SB loser curse maybe ?

They dont have a nosetackle... not set up for 3-4

 

[Schmo]

Guys, it's fine. We get N'Keal Harry back now. The O is about to take off

Seeing as how none of the receivers are getting much separation, might as well throw it to him when he gets back.

I have to go back and check, in pre-season I was already calling out how this team needs a big fat NT and others were saying Godchaux was the guy. Maybe if I have time I'll go find but I'm sure those people are being real quiet right now.

They need DTs. They aren't playing a 3-4 anymore.

Point is both Godchaux nor Barmore are run stopping DTs. Lawrence Guy isn't bad, that's it. There aren't stout run stopping DTs on this roster and Bentley sucks. If they're playing a crappy 2002 or 2005 defense schematically (not 3-4) then we're in for a long year.

God is a run stopper. Is he elite? No but serviceable. He made some plays today.

This was prob his best game of the season thus far.

He has def been average a best.

Just takes time for some guys

This team looks like it lacks chemistry.

This defense cannot make a key run stop. Whether to prevent a run TD or a 3rd and short. Godchaux is not the answer. We have a couple defensive ends and no good DTs who can stop the run.

 

[mike_usagisan]

Unlike last year, I feel like we have the ability to get better.

They certainly don't have it right now.

Clearly Mac and Smith just met each other on Tinder.

Week 3. Need a whole bunch o games to have a conclusive evaluation.

Nah. It was apparent in preseason and 3 weeks have shown it. Same with the OLine being bad. It's insanity to pretend it isn't true. More weeks of futility is what dumb teams do because they can't see what's happening. Takes way longer for dumb teams to see and adjust flaws.

There was something of an expectation with so many new players and the COVID returns developing chemistry would take time but what's surprised me is how inoffensively soft the team feels. They're currently presenting as a team of nice boys NOT guys who would crawl through barbwire to make a play and win.
