last

week.

45.

That's 11 a quarter.

I don't know who you think you're going to beat at 45 plays.

So this offense, to me, has to get untracked, has to get back to some type of rhythm.

They've been out of rhythm.

But we're kind of looking for that one player that's going to force us into the win column, and that's not how this is going to happen, right?

Is that, is that the plan?

Yeah.

I mean, you look at these two games as kind of a, a little capsule, if you will.

The team will be together.

It's almost like a little, little training camp, right? They're together.

Now, as much illness as has rolling through this team, I'm not sure that's the greatest thing in the world [laughs].

They just can't seem to, to kick this thing, but it is like a li- you know, you travel from, from tomorrow you are together, uh, like it is in training camp.

Uh, biggest challenge for the Saints as they face the Giants.

Is that, is that the plan?

Yeah.

I mean, y- you look at these two games as kind of a, a little capsule, if you will.

The team will be together.

It's almost like a little, little training camp, right? They're together.

Now, as much illness as has rolling through this team, I'm not sure that's the greatest thing in the world.

[laughs] They just can't seem to, to kick this thing, but it is like a li- You know, you travel.

Uh, biggest challenge for the Saints as they face the Giants.

And, you know, the time change and all that other stuff that goes along with that is difficult.

Yeah.

The Giants are a much better football team.

You know, play them on the road.

I, I always feel like the international games are almost wild cards, right? I mean, Pittsburgh has had some issues, and you take two teams and no one's ever played in France, no one's ever been in the stadium, so they're, they're always wild cards.

And then you come home again for two more home games.

This is that stretch I was talking about.

Not at all.

And, you know, the time change and all that other stuff that goes along with that is difficult.

Yeah, the Giants are a much better football team.

You know, play them on the road.

I, I always feel like the international games are almost wild cards, right? I mean, Pittsburgh has had some issues, and you take two teams and no one's ever played in France, no one's ever been in the stadium, so they're, they're always wild cards.

And then you come home again for two more home games.

This is that stretch I was talking about.

Three home, one on opponent, one neutral, two home, bye.

Not at all.

And, you know, the time change and all that other stuff that goes along with that is difficult.

Yeah.

The Giants are a much better football team.

You know, play them on the road.

I, I always feel like the international games are almost wild cards, right? I mean, Pittsburgh has had some issues, and you take two teams, and no one's ever played in France.

No one's ever been in the stadium.

So they're, they're always wild cards.

Not at all.

I think it might be still for me also.

Hannity's right there.

Tucker's gotta be in the mix.

He's just saying, "I'm playing a total bit."

He's so loathsome on the air, and he might be a normal dude.

Mm-hmm

...

Offensive Player of the Week.

The Saints, unfortunately, made Brock Bowers the AFC Player of the Week, the tight end from Las Vegas.

So you made one, and you got one coming in.

Um, but man, you've got to...

And you're doing so, I mean, it'll be hard enough If you had, if you had Caden Ellis, if you had Carl Granderson, if you had Anfernee Jennings, and we don't know about Pete Warner.

Okay.

[laughs]

The seventh.

We should do this, you know, every year we should celebrate '06, um, because it was a, it was a meaningful thing, and I'm, I'm, I'm excited.

Now, somewhere in there, uh, the difference between tonight and '06 is that, you know, you're gonna have this game, right? And so...

And, and '06, it, we kind of didn't, it like, you know, the blocked punt happened so fast, we were just kind of taken, I don't know, a, a, a, gas.

We didn't know how, uh, to expect.

Tonight, the '06 stuff is gonna last for a, a m- a while, but then you're gonna have a football game, and then it's gonna be up to them.

Um, had some successes, uh, but, uh, the most difficult thing is, uh, the uncertainty about who he is, what he is, and why he is.

Mm-hmm

...

Offensive Player of the Week.

The Saints, unfortunately, made Brock Bowers the AFC Player of the Week, the tight end from Las Vegas.

So y- you made one, and you got one coming in.

Um, but man, you've got to...

And you're doing so, I mean, it'll be hard enough if you had, if you had Caden Ellis, if you had Carl Granderson, if you had Anfernee Jennings.

Okay.

I appreciate that.

Because once it happens, once you're probably in somewhere in Utah.

Yeah, that was the same thing over there as well.

That's where it stayed.

Endeavor.

It just follows you around.

So yesterday, Sunday's game after the game and even on Monday, we're not going to spend a lot of time talking about the game.

So I got the bug right now.
