We've looked terrible so far. The refs are helping out a ton, but dropped passes are a huge problem, and McNabb keeps going right back to Baskett anyway. We're moving down field now and have held NO for the most part in the last few drives, so hopefully we'll fight back and score some points soon. I can definitely see us coming out strong for the second half.

Big TD completion to Reggie Brown, but that muffed punt put NO right in position to score before the half. We've still held them pretty well, I like our chances.
What a game, I actually didn't get a chance to watch it but from what I seen (the highlights) it looked good. Reggie Brown really stepped it up today with 6 catches and two touchdowns.

Brees looked really good today, everything was well done. I think the Eagles thought this was going to be sort of a pushover game...

Everytime we took our time and rushed the ball a bit, we'd wind up scoring. We knew damn well the Saints were going to be a tough team to beat, I don't question the effort at all. We're usually slow out of the gates anyway, which is why I was sure we'd be ready to go in the second half..We just couldn't shut the door, and probably didn't give Joe Horn as much credit and preparation as he needs. There was some bad play calling, a lot of dropped balls..They were the better team today on the field and on the sidelines. Down the road I like our chances better than theirs, but they beat us this week, plain and simple.Now let's get Stallworth back soon to make up for these 7-14 lost points a game :beerbang2:
