Well, we've perfected the taunting. Now maybe we can learn to finish a game.
If you weren't buying it last week when I said Reggie Bush was a little star-crossed, I give you a man who can turn a touchdown punt return into a taunting penalty. Didn't he learn anything in the NFC championship? It's about winning - not scoring. There's a saying that comes to mind about dreams here, but I can't print it....
What ever happened to turning around and celebrating with your teamates - the other 10 players who just happened to contribute to the score? In other words, every td dance, every Lambeau Leap, every self expression is in essence a dis of your teamates. But that's off the subject of this particular foldarama.
Unfortunately, the Saints picked this week to add to their long history of building opposing quarterback's confidence. The QB got hot. The Saints insist on playing that press, man to man coverage, and they got burned. Tracy Porter had played a pretty good game up til that point. Then, evaporation.
Bad timing. We really needed to go to Denver 2-0, as the Broncos look like a juggernaut on offense. What's the over/under, about 80? That would put it Broncos 50, Saints 30. Not that this is a prediction mind you, but can you imagine Jay Cutler watching the film of Jason Campbell ripping the Saints' defense to shreds. Wipe the drool, Jay.
Let's taunt after the game, Reggie. 2 Hours after. And taunt a team we won't have to play again.
Needs: Someone that can pound it on the ground in the 4th quarter when we have a lead. Duece? Pierre? Some defensive pressure that hits the QB say 8 times a game.
Well, I enjoyed the hospitality of Redskins stadium, although I didn't enjoy the heat. Will never take that 72 degree Superdome for granted again. Still the best place to watch a pro game.
