The Season Has Started...

You may ask what's so great about a 14-9 decision? I 'll tell you what so great about it. We won for the first time in Sean Payton's Tenure with a stifling defense...something we are not used to seeing in the new Saints era of high scoring offenses.All of the previous games under Payton when the Saints scored 14 points or less they lost the game. This is something new. I thought it was common sense that the defense would be better this year simply because we are under Gregg Williams for the second year in a row. Once again the naysayers said we wouldn't be that good this year. Not me. If you go back to the archive you'll find my comments were that we would be better. Make no mistake, just because the Vikings were missing Sidney Rice and maybe Percy Harvin wasn't 100% the Vikings are by no means a bad team. As predicted here they will be in the playoffs. We were again just the better team. We held a very potent offense scoreless in the second half. Let's see if anyone else can duplicate that the rest of the season. Call it an ugly win I really don't care. We are still ONE & O and the next big challenge is a week from tomorrow when we play a very much improved 49er team in San Francisco onMonday Night Football. Should be a great show on Primetime!
