Desparate challenge by Payton.
@Boris posted:The Saints have absolutely NO answer for Waller.
Sure wish the Packers had a TE like that
It's absolutely crazy that the Baltimore Ravens lost Waller when he was snatched up off their practice squad, they lost Zadarius Smith to the Packers via Free Agency.... and yet they still might be one of the 2 or 3 best teams in the NFL despite losing those 2 outstanding players.
But yeah, if you had Darren Waller to complement Davante Adams and Aaron Jones, it's possible the Pack would never have to punt. 
Big time....He's down & it isn't even close.
If they overturn this....I'm not going to be happy

Um is that fire pit on a rug ? Be careful my friend.
BTW, can Jon Gruden coach or what ? Looks like he’s moving the needle with the Raiders too.
While I've never actually done the stats it seems like most teams that lose on Monday night also lose the next week. Looking good for the Packers next week.
Saints D is gassed. Hope that carries over in 6 days.
Yeah I agree -- Saints will play the Packers like their lives depend on it next week.
That's ok. I like a challenge
A TY MONTGOMERY SIGHTING!!
Oh my the Raiders just pulled a Vikings PI play
WOWWW -- I think he would've gotten away with the first arm drag but the 2nd arm HOOK killed him
I don't expect the Saint to have a billion penalty yards next week, but I don't see them magically being able to stop our run game.
I like the call to go for the FG - Win it here
DANIEL CARLSON with AUTHORITY!!
Brees get some mop up yardage to get over 300 yards. Typical.
Sean Payton not only lost the game, he is also going to lose $100,000 for not wearing a mask. He'll join Vic Fangio, Kyle Shanahan and Pete Carroll who were also fined that much for not wearing masks on Sunday. And $250,000 for each team.
Back to back 100+ yard penalty games for the Saints aint gonna get it done.
They have a short week to figure it out.
@AndrewBrandt
First touchdown ever in Las Vegas was scored by a fullback named Alex Ingold, who was born and raised in Green Bay, WI. Of course.
Maybe by a LV player. But the first TD in Las Vegas was scored by Alvin Kamara.
Too bad I snoozed it last night instead of participating in this thread.
I missed the best part!
An actual local dealership.... named Beaver.... in Cumming!
You pig.
Linda has had dealerships in the Jax area for many years, her tag line was “Were gonna wow ya!” Shes put a little mileage on over the years, but still easier on the eyes than Ernie Von Schledorn.

I just replied to Brandt on Twitter. Asked him when the TD was scored.
Also told him the kid's name is Alec not Alex.
@Boris posted:40% of the Season tickets sold don't live in Nevada -- as soon as they start losing that stadium will end up like that Death Star I posted above.
Packers don't play there until 2023 if you were wondering.
I can cross two things off my bucket list in 3 years.
1. Watch a Packers game in Vegas.
2. Stalk Keel in person.
I'm not sure after watching this game if the Raiders are better than I thought they were or the Saints worse.
I concur on the last sentence. I thought the Saints were good but Brees is slipping...
The Falcons and Panthers are trash, and the Saints already beat the Bucs once. They'll probably win their division, but if not, they have a pretty easy road to a playoff-worthy record.
Having Thomas out doesn't help Brees, just like any top WR being out doesn't help the QB. Their defense looks a bit off from the previous years, but it still has playmakers.
Really think it's foolish to somewhat write-off Brees, Payton or the Saints.
Right now, the 2 best teams in the NFC are the Seahawks & the Packers.
I'm not "writing off" the Saints but I watched them the first 2 weeks. They're living on past glory & not as good as the Packers right now.
Does that mean the Saints can't beat Green Bay?? Of course not. But if the same Packer team that played weeks 1 & 2 shows up vs. the same Saints team from weeks 1 & 2 -- guess what.....Packers ain't losing.
I'm sure the Saints will play like it's the NFC Championship game on Sunday Night. Because....the Packers seem to get everyone's best shot.

Not writing them off, just expected a lot better from Brees last night. love Payton's playcalling and his prolific use of that great athlete Taysom Hill who slipped through MM's unimaginative hands...

Note to self: Reinforce gate and ask Mitt Romney for a wall with Nevada.
Too many Mormons have infiltrated the burbs of Vegas for a wall. There are temple's all over the place and half the time you talk to a stranger they ask you "what ward are you in?"
Here is a little gem for you. The missionaries are "service missionaries." Meaning, if you ask them to mow your lawn or help with that DIY project, they will say yes. In fact, they want to do it because it sure as fuck beats door to door sales. So when they roll up, smile, because you're about to kick your feet up and enjoy a cold one while they manicure the lawn.

AND they won't ask you for a beer either....
Never take a Mormon fishing, they'll drink all your beer,.
All I know is I spent a shit-load of money buying booze for the fallen away Mormon guys that built our house.

And Seattle has to deal with the Rams, the Cardinals and what's left of the Niners. That's probably a guaranteed 3 losses on their schedule.
Who do you know wants to eat a dusty cookie?
I'll go out on a limb and say the Cardinals take the division. Their QB, as Rex Ryan points out, runs in a way that he doesn't get hit. That's impressive.
AZ does look much better this year. The additional of Hopkins seems to be paying off early in the season.
