Can I lend my ankle to Michael Thomas? Despite much improved offensive play by the New Orleans Saints, there were ultimately way too many mistakes in their 37-30 loss against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night to get excited about anything. Did Drew Brees have the game of his career tonight? Not even close. Is he the reason for the Saints’ loss? Not even close.
Though New Orleans showed glimmers of promise after a putrid Week 2 performance, this level of play will lead them straight to a cozy 7th seed in the playoffs – if they’re lucky.
