You're absolutely right. Not saying it wasn't a bad throw. I was just saying we might have kept it close or closer but with the second half kick off and a half to see our defense them pulling away was inevitable. I actually didn't even post in the game day threads because I didn't think we'd win this one and didn't want to be all pissed off and posting all day.

It pisses me off that Taylor doesn't get the ball out. Then Peterman comes in and let's it go and for a drive or so it looks like the answer but if you really watch after about 7 or 8 throws they start to watch his eyes and time his throws. Another half with Peterman and I would put money on two or three picks.

Peterman does blow. The only thing he does right is the one thing Taylor does worst but it doesn't make him remotely worth starting.

I totally see why people say Tyrod needs to let it go more. That said the way Peterman "lets it go" he would throw several picks a game no matter what. Peterman came out and the change of pace was good for about one drive before they had his timing down and he stares down his throws. It would only be a matter of time for the picks to come. Dennison did some nice things early on. Taylor was playing alright. The pick sucked. Bumped or not it was really disappointing. I don't think it changed the game. We have 0 talent at WR and against Belichick that will kill you.

Dennison did some nice things in the first half. I was surprised. Webb missed Cadet. Taylor got bumped and threw the pick and I can't even count how many passes got dropped. Dennison has been pretty bad but today was one of his better games. We just have really bad pass catchers. Thompson and Clay are seemingly the only ones who should even be on the field.

The Taylor pick didn't change anything. It would have been 23 - 10 is the only difference there would have been. Dennison was calling an awesome game early on. The WR's on this team are garbage. Forget getting open, which they are mediocre at doing, they can't catch the damn ball when they do get open. Every one lauds Brady but people forget the Pats only gave up 16ppg last year and they haven't given up more than 17 points in 2 months. We either need Taylor to learn a little bit of Peterman's just letting it rip or we need Peterman to stop throwing it so quickly EVERY time. Teams key in on Peterman starring down the throw and getting it out at the same time every throw. Definately some really good things about getting it out. Again though, our WR's suck.

You've run out of chances for Tyrod ................... I mean you've been defending him for so long ........... must be exhausted.

I can't even walk out on that ledge. I don't trust them not to choke. The recipe is play good defense, run the ball, find a couple scores. I don't trust them.

Were they playing basketball 1 vs 1? I saw the Saints run for 300 yards and 6 TD's. Kind of not the point of the whole thing though. I was pointing out that if you want to pick things apart play by play not every throw is a TD. Even good QB's will have a number of throws that aren't perfect.

The crazy thing is if you take out the Jets, Saints, and Chargers this is exactly how we were winning. We were playing great defense and then scratch and claw out 20 to 25 points. Then the lights went out and the defense went home for 3 games. Don't know what changed exactly from one week to the next but it's a welcome addition having them back.

When I think about posting a reply to you I think ...........

I'm sure you can tell me a lot about that ..............

Brees threw it short on the last drive .......... boy he sucks. Almost got picked on a sure TD ......... Brees is soo bad. Seriously ........ taking one play and making it your case is lame. It wasn't any bigger or more to do with the outcome of the game than the hold bringing back a 1st down run before it or the crappy 3 and 2 call directly after it.

The CIA just switched the big brother chip they were using in your TV and it helps reception.

Tell me where Dennis has been successful. Better yet I'll tell you. He had 1 great year and 1 good year with Houston, largely thanks to Kubiak. 0utside of that he's been a dumpster fire everywhere.

Saints are losing 10 to 17 in the third .............. Brees must suck. He has better recievers, a better running game, o-line ............... Brees must really suck.

woops ......... and yes I'd pay him 18 million next year. If you have drafted your "franchise" QB it gives you a year with a good option in front of him and no cap hit with guaranteed money when he leaves.

Who said long term viable QB? I think he's good, not great, and we have crap other than him. There are no, absolutely none, guarantees that drafting a QB gives us a "franchise" QB. I think we could do a lot better just by having better play calling and some better WR play. So for the meantime fix what you can and that should be the play calling and long term go ahead draft away but remember, we D0 N0T have a better option at QB.

Look at the teams that lost today. Every QB threw picks. Look at the teams that lost to us. Their QB threw picks. Guess what Tyrod doesn't do? Any questions.

How about the throw into the end zone down the sideline to Jones? Switch Jones and Watkins and that's a TD any day that ends in Y. There are a lot of plays where throws aren't perfect. Hell I just watched Goff hold the ball way to long and take a sack and that's after Brees did it twice before that. If Tyrod's biggest mistake is not hitting 0'Leary in stride meanwhile everyone overlooks someone holding the play before bringing back a long run and making it 2nd and 16 then I think people are not getting the concept of offense and are just playing heroes and villains.

That's right put Peterman in there ................. I hear he throws a REALLY catchable ball.

He was chucking the ball all over the place all right ................

Taylor didn't get called for holding the play before that would have been a first and ten at least two yards beyond where 0'Leary caught it.

Here you go calling Taylor the offense. If Taylor is still doing everything well but we are scoring 5 less points per game and running for 60 less yards per game and that isn't because of Taylor then the problem must be ............. fill in the blank here?
