The NFL, it's suspension-tastic!

Props to Huey.

so ....... Reggie Bush still dances around when he gets a handoff, the Saints still can't stop the pass - hmmm.

I don't get it. McAllister is in there they are running 90% of the time. Bush is in there they are passing 90% of the time. If Bush runs - it's to the outside THE ONLY STRENGTH of the Colts run defense. I just don't get it. If I can see this - why can't Sean Payton?

I'm actually cheering for the Saints - so tired of seeing the Colts.

I didn't expect Brees to look so bad - and he has looked bad.

What do you want, Reggie Bush to run it up the middle?

I know - crazy. I want them to use them both in the backfield, change it up, stop being predictable.

Another INT by Brees - TD Indy - yuck. That was an absolutely horrible pass.

I really think the Saints got away from the running game way too early. To begin the 2nd half they have McAllister run up the middle twice to make it 3rd and (2 or 3), call a dump pass that gets deflected - after that - not much.

I'm really surprised by this outcome.

The Saints got picked apart. Get ready for a year full of Colts and Peyton Manning every time you turn on the TV.

The defense is supposed to be much improved. Jason David was supposed to be an upgrade.

Kaesvihorn from the Bengals is supposed to be an upgrade.

The linebackers have been upgraded.

Manning and the Colts were simply ON.

The only good thing about the Colts is that I have Peyton Manning on one of my FF teams.
