The league needs to get rid of illegal contact altogether

[Sam Mills Fan]

That every single offensive record has been broken since 2007 is just embarrassing. Let the CBs do some mugging once again and stop turning the game into XFL/Arena League.

[Fox007]

Agreed, especially the Dome teams, they practically are arena football teams.

Touchdowns means more money.

[jamos14]

I agree with you. Combine that with all the "hitting a defenseless receiver" penalties and the defense has almost no chance against a good passing team.

[JawnyBlaze]

They did get rid of it for the Saints in this game. Not that it probably would have made a difference in the final outcome.

[hank pimple butt]

I agree. the NFL is turning football into a non-contact sport.

[beastson]

How is that embarrassing? That it changed from a defensive to offensive league. Things change they dont stay the same. Offenses always shoulda had the advantage, and now that more and more options are being introduced its becoming evident. Thats OC creativity

Last I checked, we still got more than enough CB's making plays and doing what they have to. Lets not act like Brady and Brees didn't have multiple INT games this year. Defense gotta step their game up

[Sam Mills Fan]

It shouldn't favor the offense or defense. The only advantage should be that the offense knows which play is coming and the defense doesn't.

The XFL didn't provide such a big advantage for offenses. That's why the scores were usually like 12-7.

[beastson]

OK you can allow more mugging, which in return would be more pass interferences

Its all about mismatches these days. Offenses outmatch defenses in a lot of different ways, I dont think thats going to change any time soon unless a whole new defensive concept is created. Start having WR's as corners or something lol, Idk

Saints been in this system for a few years now, so this really isn't a surprise. We'll be there in a few years too. But be honest if it was us dominating like this, would you really complain?

[Sam Mills Fan]

It's not just the Saints though. Stafford has now thrown for more than 5,000 yards this season and didn't even make the Pro Bowl. Random Matt Flynn who sucked at LSU almost threw for 500 yards today and threw 6 TDs in his 2nd start. TJ Yates who was terrible throughout most of college put up some great numbers his first 2 starts. This really sucks.

[Sam Mills Fan]

And hey beastson, it IS helping us dominate offensively. Cam threw for 4,000 yards+ this season. Getting rid of illegal contact would almost surely cause his passing yardage numbers to slip too. So I'm being unbiased here.

[beastson]

Dont forget Cam numbers. Thats what should make you smile

And this his rookie year. Thats why I always reference Blackmon cause I guarantee, barring any injuries, Cam would be at 5,000 next year with him

It sucks our D fell off so hard though

[Argus Plexus]

Lol, anyone else see Delhomme lose a fumble?
