New Orleans Saints: Sad Inconsistency

November 28th, 2004 by Chris H.

Saints 21, Falcons 24

Sadly much of the same inconsistency we’ve been seeing all year. The most painful part was in the end when the saints had about 1:30 to get down field and score. The play calling was horrible. Brooks threw a few short passes. They never made it out the starting gate.

Tenth game in a row the Saints went scoreless in the first quarter. What should we attribute this to? Haslett’s had four years with this team and they’re worse off now than when Ditka turned them over to him. I mean, I hate to say that; because Haslett’s such a nice guy. Maybe that’s why we’ve kept him around so long?

Saints lose to the Broncos

November 21st, 2004 by Chris H.

Saints 13, Broncos 34

“That’s the worst performance I’ve seen of our club in the 20 years that I’ve owned them.” - Tom Benson 11/21/2004

Maybe reality’s finally starting to set in for Tom Benson. Buddy D. says he thinks Benson “might have missed a few games.” I agree. But what’s it gonna take Tom? Is this rock bottom?

Is Tom Benson going to realize that now, maybe now - it’s time to make some changes - to realize that we need to take a drastically different perspective on how a football team needs to be managed?

In my amateur opinion … everyone in the City of New Orleans knows the Saints started going downhill quick, after Benson fired General Manager Randy Mueller in 2002. You can’t listen to talk radio for 10 minutes without hearing Mueller’s name brought up. That was 2 years ago.

Why was Mueller fired? Because he criticized Benson’s “management style.” If I was Benson, I’d call that guy quick and ask him what I’m doing wrong, and suck up my pride.

New Orleans Saints: Joe Horn!

November 18th, 2004 by Chris H.

Joe Horn is the man. If every Saints player had his enthusiasm they’d never lose a game. I don’t even mind that stupid little dance he does. He can do that dance. DO THAT! DO THAT DANCE!  GO JOE!

Saints new stadium talk

November 16th, 2004 by Chris H.

Traffic uptown sucks right now. If they build a new stadium at the foot of the GNO bridge it will be a traffic NIGHTMARE. Why are people even talking about this?

The Saints can’t support it!

The Saints Won Today

November 14th, 2004 by Chris H.

The Saints actually won today, and I’m not surprised. They have awesome talent, but for some reason Tom Benson can’t seem to figure out why they are COMPLETELY unmotivated.

They lose to the worst teams in the NFL and beat some of the best. It kind of makes you wonder.
