After our TD we allowed the Colts to drive down and score to tie it, which would've been the game winner. Pretty easy to put 2 and 2 together.

Its not hard to see that we played extremely conservative defensively on that last drive, if they had kicked the FG to go up 30-28, they might have played differently. I dont know that we definitely would have stopped them, but its not like we didnt stop them on any drives that day. They also had a chance to win in OT, and didnt. Did they?

Our defense isnt very good this year. There's alot of reasons. Injuries have certainly played a role, as was Wade's extremely predictable scheme on Sundays.

You act like the Saints have never made a big play or been tough to defend for anyone.

Jesus Christ, take of the blinders. seriously. .. Who on defense is injured that makes a difference? Who? And Wade is gone. The D is playing better, they have just been good the last few seasons. Not great. Pissburgh (ya like that sbk? ), Ravens, THOSE are great defenses. And yes, they have "plays" made on them too. LIke any defense does. But, Newman has never been a ball hawk and has never been great. And he just showed that again against the Saints..

For fuck's sake, THis "defense" made Garrard and Young look like fucking HOF's.... Oh, what's the use.

That is when Wade should have been let go. That was the tell-tale sign that he had lost the team.
