Is it just me or is the seeming endless time between the end of the Superbowl, through the draft and camp, to pre-season seem excessive? I am so glad Football season is finally here!
Now...Im a longtime Saints fan with finally something to crow about...but, we definately have some things to work on. The two missed fieldgoals really irked me, and Meachem's dropped Touchdown, as well. A bit of tuning up is necessary, though it is potentially just week one jitters. We will see. Defense performed fairly well considering how long they were on the field. A nice almost takeaway by the rook Safety and an actual one by Vilma. Ayodelle and Ced made some nice plays as well. The Secondary was on point Im happy to say, too.
On the whole I was happy with their performance...mostly because they won. Im just hoping the guys tighten up as the Vikings were not up to snuff and they kept it relatively close. Though to be honest the Saints mostly ran down the clock the last 1/4, playing conservatively. I hate when they do that. I dont like the whole play not to lose mindset.
Oh well...let the season begin!
