Saints Report # 4 - September 30, 2012

Mercifully, September is in the history books.

The Saints pulled out of the early season doldrums Sunday,

moving straight into playoff form.

Brees threw 52 passes and lost. 

He put a saddle on his back and threw for over 400 yards - not enough.

Saints Missed a potential winning field goal
No running game.  The defense cracking under playoff game pressure.
Poor decisions to kick field goals when Saints should’ve been going for broke.
Yep, looked so much like a playoff game I suggest we just forget September.
Sing along to this one,

 

September by Earth Wind & Fire

Do you remember any football in September?

We weren’t mistaken for pretenders
While fumbling the ball away

Our defense was missing

Despite our fans a hissing
As we stumbled in the night
Remember how Goodell stole the coach away

Ba de ya, say do you remember

Ba de ya, football in September

Ba de ya, never was a good game day

But Brees is with you

Waiting just for Vitt to see you
Only black gold and love
Remember how we knew playoffs were here to stay

Now December eased the pain that we shared in September

Vilma, Pierre, and Darren
Forget the pain that we share today.

Ba de ya, so don’t remember

Ba de ya, football in September
Ba de ya, soon some good game days
