under no circumstance do they win if Carr doesn’t get hurt. We are very fortunate that happened.
You sure that was the turning point you think it is?

Enjoy your whining. We’ll keep celebrating
They get credit for taking advantage of the opportunity that was presented to them. Considering no points were scored with Winston at QB and 17 were scored with Carr as QB I would say that was the turning point.

Yeah Carr returned that punt so beautifully.

Yes, we are so fortunate their middling QB got hurt while they have an equally talented middling backup qb.

Under no circumstances is this game close if Jaire, Bak, Jenkins, Watson or Jones plays. You know, like 5 of our best maybe 7 players.

That was fun. Any more hypotheticals we can have fun with that mean nothing to the W and L column?

And since it isn’t being mentioned, Valentine had to leave the game and Ballentine was getting picked on pretty good.

Could you imagine if we had Jaire or Stokes or Valentine. Saints were so fortunate.

Left the bar a few plays into the third quarter. I was driving from Texas to Nebraska and had about 8 hours to go and had enough up to that point. I bought Packers radio app and listened on the way up so I didn’t get a chance to see but I heard it.

Credit where it’s due for a great comeback. From what I saw this team was &%$@ and under no circumstance do they win if Carr doesn’t get hurt. We are very fortunate that happened.

Love was very bad prior to the 4th quarter. At some point he needs to get some consistency from play to play. Completing less than 60% game in and game out isn’t going to work especially when he’s about to get paid.
The Packers had injuries up the wazoo, both inactive and in-game…and you’re gonna use injuries as an excuse for the Saints?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Bro, try harder.

This is not an exhaustive list of mistakes today.

But worth a thought.

False start - Royce Newman, backup
Botched throwback on a trick play - Emaunel Wilson, rookie, RB3
Holding - Jayden Reed, rookie
Illegal Formation - Rasheed Walker, backup
False start - Luke Musgrave, rookie
Offensive PI - Samoure Toure, backup (WR5?6?)


Like I said, there were a lot more than this. Personal Foul on Kenny Clark. Pre-snaps on Runyan and Tom. But it's really overwhelming to me how many of our errors came from rookies or guys we wouldn't expect on the field. We're a truly young team.

That said, we need to clean it up. And the coaches need to emphasize the pre-snaps especially.

Carr returned a punt to the house?

Curious what the group here thought of the decision to go for 2 pt conversion down 17-9?

Gotta say, I was a bit taken aback by that call. The traditional call is to kick the XP. Worked out pretty good, though, gotta say!
I am a little more old school, I think like you, just been around the NFL for so long that it seemed super weird. From what I have read/seen/heard, it sounds like it was the statistical best decision. Definitely seemed weird, though.

I think the Saints were very fortunate that Aaron Jones, David Bak, Elgton Jenkins, Jaire Alexander, D'Vondre Cambpell, Carrington Valtentine, Erik Stokes, Zach Tom, and Christian Watson were out. Oh and Rashan Gary being on a pitch count.

I by no means feel bad for the Saints and Carr. I also think Winston was just as good as Carr.

We should also add Preston Smith’s cap hit to the total. Pretty sure he didn’t show today, either. I don’t think I heard his name announced all day.

There were zero players on offense on a 2nd contract. Only Preston Smith, Kenny Clark and Rasul Douglas were on a 2nd contract with GB. Oh and Savage on a 5th year option.

Quite literally the only movement the Saints had was throwing to Olave against Ballentine. And honestly even those weren't easy.

Like I can't say Ballentine played bad. That one Olave catch near half was absolutely sick.

Preston got one positive mention that I recall. I can't remember what it was for though

Really disappointed with the grounds crew and equipment staff. We were slipping too much for a home game.

I thought Love was late on a lot of throws or hung them up. But he kept plugging away and launching the ball to guys who finally came through. Used his wheels just enough.

The D had pressure all day! Gary was a monster.

No reason to talk about Anders any more.

Great win we could have blown them out if the trickery was clean and Love hit Musgrave.

Team showed up and fought all the way!

Let's crush Detroit with Jones, Watson, and Bahk! :beer2:

Listening to MLFs press conference, I'm not sure Love's completion percentage is all on him. Seems this young kids are making a lot of timing mistakes. He specifically mentioned them not going in motion properly or at the right time.

Going to be fun watching this offense develop and seeing Love get in sync with the WRs and TEs.

I don’t want to take away from what our young QB did to bring this team back, but he has a lot to do with his completion percentage. I can think of at least 4 balls where he put it and allowed the defense to make a play.

Completions became incompletions. 2 on the same drive. He was low and short on a few. He’ll get better, but he has work to do yet.
