Michael Lewis can't start next week. He just can't. These big plays every week are becoming too tough to recover from. Would JJ have the balls to start Considine?

You're no one to talk about balls, welcher. You're still alive.

The defense is completely inept without the pass rush.

Mike Lewis is a complete liability in pass coverage. The Eagles highly-touted pass rush could not get any pressure on Brees the whole day, and they essentially just dinked and dunked the Eagles to death.

They consistently moved the ball. They deserved to win this game. I can't believe this defense turned into a bunch of sissies. They simply can't match up besides the d-line; and the d-line looked incredibly horrible this game. Numerous times they were all bunched together and Brees was just sitting there. Utter crap.

This is so disappointing. McNabb looked completely dejected after the game.

Lewis is an embarrassemnt in coverage. Not much doubt about that. And Jones was his usual invisible self. Hey, let's get Lewis to play SLB and send Jones packing. Sure, I'm kidding....

The Saints always have a fire in the Dome. They're going to be great in Los Angeles!

Saints will stay in New Orleans.

However, I don't know when we will finally beat a good team this year, but eventuall we will face a good team and beat them, we just haven't yet.

Saints had it Eagles didn't.Game over.

i think juqua thomas was the only guy to make a play from the LB position all day.

They should've kicked him in the hammy, like I said.

The game was just so winnable, granted the Eagles D sucked the big one. These types of losses really hurt. They need to win out before the bye to keep some seperation and hopefully they can work out some of these coverage problems after the bye (i.e. get Rod Hood back).

But, even so, I think the Eagles are going to have to outscore their opponents this year to win. The sooner Stallworth gets that hammy straigthen out the better.

I really want Lewis to be benched. Pro Bowler to suck.

General_Failure · October 15, 2006, 04:57:00 PM

Welcome, everyone. I'm sure there's still plenty of seats on the Michael Lewis hatewagon.

We need a new scapegoat now that Mahe doesnt play.

Also, what exactly did Bunkley say about killing himself? I'd like to see the exact quote. I'd like to see the the action carried out as well.

Good John Madden there, Z...

So that's what's wrong with the gameplan!

mussa · October 15, 2006, 05:00:28 PM

Whats happened to the Westbrook factor? Am I the only one who thinks he's not getting the ball enough? How many deep throws did we have today? Got to be the most all year long in a game.

hunt · October 15, 2006, 05:01:44 PM

the saints really seemed to be focusing on westbrook today...and rightfully so. every time he caught a screen, there was a lb right there waiting for him.
