Who still wants to argue with me about Tampa being the worst team in the NFL?

I think there are some Lions and Raiders fans (those poor souls) who might argue.

Eagles defense is making JaMarcus look like a superstar. Terrible. Line isn't getting push. Linebackers are terribad as usual. Now the secondary looks like it forgot how to cover and tackle.

Yeah, and the Eagles offense is making the Oakland defensive line look like all stars. I can't believe how badly Philly is playing.

That's it, I cant watch this, I'll come back after the game to check the score but I'm actually angry at the Eagles for playing like they're the Rams.

Where the hell did the Saints come from this year?

They did some major things on defense. They hired a new coordinator, and have massively upgraded their secondary, their Achilles heel throughout the Sean Payton era. The D-Line is healthy, for a change. And it's still not going to be a league-leading defense. Maybe it will be a "good-enough" defense.

Offensively, the biggest difference is that they got rid of Deuce McAllister. Sorry to Deuce, but after his second ACL blowout in 2007, he was done physically, and hurt the team last year when he was splitting time with Pierre Thomas. It was pretty obvious by the end of '08 when Thomas was finally getting the lion's share of the carries, and was breaking off at least a couple of long runs per game, plays that Deuce was no longer capable of making. They've had a solid offensive line for several years, now they finally have a couple of young, power backs who can grind out yards, and get them in big chunks at a time.

Payton also gave me a little confidence today that he knows when not to dick around with *attempting* to establish Reggie Bush between the tackles.
 
Nice cutback by McCoy. I'm pretty happy about our future on offensive skill positions. We need to shore up our shaky lines and linebackers.
