Same idiot Texans - give the receiver a 15-yd cushion when they need 7 yds to be in field goal range.

[chuck]

It is absolutely criminal what these fking idiots do with the great players they somehow stumble into.

Do TO, I should say.

This secondary is a new dimension of terrible.

I've got no problem with the last drive. If you told me the Saints would reach the 41 on that last drive I'd take it 100 times out of 100. If you told me we'd give up a 58 yard FG try I'd take it every time. Drew Brees is going to move a team in that situation. We lost on a guy doing something he's never done in his life.

The bigger concern is the absolutely non-existent pass rush for 4 quarters. Too bad we couldn't have added a high level pass rusher to this team in the last week.

Clowneys absence already evident with only Watt left to provide pressure on the QB who the Saints double-teamed all night long.
