New Orleans Saints defeat San Diego Chargers 37 - 32

Oct 26, 2008 - London, England - In a game surrounded with a wonderfully festive atmosphere, the New Orleans Saints beat the San Diego Chargers by a score of 37 - 32. Once again, our turn-over rule is right on. In today's game the New Orleans Saints won the turn-over battle by a ratio of 2:0 and the New Orleans Saints won the game.

Due to Reggie Bush's knee injury, New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton had no choice but to play veteran running-back Deuce McAllister in their only crucial third-and-one yard (3rd & 1 yd) or fourth and one (4th & 1 yd) play, occuring in the second quarter of play. Here's the call: "It's forth and goal from the one yard line. Drew Brees, hand-off Deuce McAllister, left tackle for 1 yard, TOUCHDOWN." It was the 51st touchdown of Deuce McAllister career moving him into second place on the New Orleans Saints all time touchdown scoring list.


Carolina Panthers defeat New Orleans Saints 30 - 7

October 19, 2008 - NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana. In an awful game, the New Orleans Saints lost to the Carolina Panthers by a score of 7 - 30. Once again, our turn-over rule is right on. In today's game the New Orleans Saints lost the turn-over battle with a ratio of 0:2 and the New Orleans Saints lost the game.

New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton is a moron and still isn't putting veteran running-back Deuce McAllister in the game on crucial third-and-one yard plays. The New Orleans Saints must figure out how to get a first down in third-and-one situations. Today, both third-and-one plays were Reggie Bush runs to the right end. The first was a 3 yard gain for a first down and the second was a -2 yard loss for a punt on forth-down. Head Coach Sean Payton needs give the football to veteran running-back Deuce McAllister or figure out another way to successfully get a first down on third-and-one situations. It has been a pattern this year, on crucial third-and-one yard downs, the New Orleans Saints have had very limited success running the football for a first down without Deuce McAllister in the back-field. Give the ball to Duece, dude. It ain't that difficult. Or, put Duece in the back-field and execute a passing play from Drew Brees to one of the New Orlean's Saints trustworthy receiving corps.

New Orleans Saints lose to Denver Broncos 32 - 34

Sep 21, 2008 - Denver, Colorado - Is there an echo in here? This write-up is basicly a cut and paste from last week!!! The New Orleans Saints must figure out how to get a first down in third-and-one situations.

The New Orleans Saints lose to the Denver Broncos by a score of 32 - 34. The New Orleans Saint's loss is directly attributed to their inability to make first downs on third-and-one yard plays. Head Coach Sean Payton needs give the football to veteran running-back Deuce McAllister or figure out another way to successfully get a first down on third-and-one situations. This year, on crucial third-and-one yard downs, the New Orleans Saints have been unable to run the football for a first down, so why run it on third-and-one? Any third-down play must be a passing play from Drew Brees to one of the New Orlean's Saints trustworthy receiving corps.

The turn-over rule is was wrong this week because of Head Coach Sean Payton's stupidity. The rule is: if the New Orleans Saints can break even in the turn over battle, they will win the game. The New Orleans Saints win-ability is directly proportional to the New Orleans Saints turn-over ratio. The bottom line is: if the New Orleans Saints win the take-away / give-away battle, then the Saints win the game. In today's game, the New Orleans Saints won the turn-over battle with a ratio of 2:1 but the New Orleans Saints loss the game 32 - 34 because Sean Payton is a moron and couldn't get his team to get a first down on third-and-one yard plays.

Sep 14, 2008 - Washington DC - The New Orleans Saints lose to the Washington Redskins by a score of 29 - 24. The New Orleans Saint's loss is directly attributed to their inability to run the ball. Head Coach Sean Payton needs give the football to veteran running-back Deuce McAllister or figure out another way to successfully run the football. This year, on third-and-one yard downs, the New Orleans Saints have been unable to run the football for a first down, so why run it on third-down-and-one? Any third-down play must be a passing play from Drew Brees to one of the New Orlean's Saints trustworthy receiving corps.

Once again, our turn-over rule is right on. The rule is: if the New Orleans Saints can break even in the turn over battle, they will win the game. The New Orleans Saints win-ability is directly proportional to the New Orleans Saints turn-over ratio.
