Another ridiculous decision against the Saints. Why blow a play dead when you can review it anyway....

3 games in a row, bonehead decisions by the zebras against the Saints

Only cost us 1 win, though, and we've got other issues to address first

Big Ben out for the season. RIP Steelers.

Your defense looked lacklustre yesterday surprisingly.

Thats a big blow to them.

Probably time for him to retire

yeah, Saints D isn't an overpowering D, it's a "pressure D" and only works when we're applying the pressure by putting points on the board, which didn't happen yesterday; in construction it's very distinct, but in results the Saints D is very much like Dungy's "Tampa 2"

We lack a playmaker at LB to be a force on the defensive side without Brees applying the pressure

Here’s some video of that awful call against the Saints if you didn’t see it

Do you think they'll win any games with Brees out? Backed them to win over 10.5 games this season...can I throw that in the bin?

They’ll win some, but to get 11 wins they’ll need Brees healthy very soon. Bridgewater it Hill is an 8-8 at best.

Sorry, my finger slipped and I accidentally posted the video of the Saints tackling like 8-year-olds

Time for Cheese Boy to repost that Beast Mode run

On the matter of Trubisky, drafting is hard. Don’t judge teams on 1 pick, measure them on multiple drafts.

That's unfair on 8 year olds

2-0 Packers

Finally some D as well

Maybe we won't finish 4th in NFCN!
