You know those F-22 fighter jets that Congress this past summer decided to quit funding to cut back the Pentagon budget? Well, we got more than a half-dozen of them elite bombers in our hangar.
In a 48-27 rout of the Giants (don't believe their final score, it could have been a lot less if we weren't so far ahead and relenting), seven different F-22 fighter jet Saints scored touchdowns on the so-called G-men.
Thankfully jshox was one of those, although I think Jermon Bushrod or Jonathon Stinchcomb could score a touchdown if they were lined up at tight end on Drew Brees' team.
Yes, jshox scored a touchdown in the first quarter on the Giants to put the Saints up 14-0, and it was the sweetest thing ever. I, jshox, have dreamed about this since January 2008.
Fifteen plays into it Mike Bell dives for a touchdown on a fourth-and-less-than-a-yard-for-a-first-down at the goal line.
Both Bell and Pierre Thomas ran hard today. And although Thomas led the rushing attack with more than 70 yards, Bell ran over three different Giant players over the course of his runs with an aggressiveness that looked like he was trying to knock snot bubbles out of their face masks.
Bell has proven to be an awesome off-season pick-up.
And then sweet bejesus Breesus, I easily beat linebacker Danny Clark on a first and goal after a spectacular catch by Marques Colston at the goal line.
Let the rout begin of the overrated G-men, who essentially had been on an in-season vacation while playing patsies before they came to the Dome.
Robert Meachem has now proven he is a homerun hitter, just like Devery Henderson. Now we've got two homerun hitters. That's like having Manny and Big Papi in the lineup.
Meachem put the third touchdown on the board with this catch over safety C.C. Brown.
Meachem also burned the defense again in the second half for a catch at the goal line. That one was funny because while we were obviously gong to win the game, hell, we scored 34 in the first half, Brees was yelling and cursing about how the pass and catch didn't make it into the end zone. Stinchcomb had to say 'Drew, we're on the one-yard line. Let's get em!'
Lance Moore is back beeatches! Here's the Saints version of Wes Welker burning cornerback Kevin Dockery for a score to put 27 points on the board for the Saints (the pat was blocked).
Lance was so excited about scoring as a Saint again even I for a second was like 'Dude!'
Lance had a big day back in the lineup: six catches for 78 yards.
Can everyone just admit now that Colston is a beast??!! Huh bruh? Colston caught eight passes for 166 yards and a TD -- he grabbed everything thrown to him -- while Brees was passing to everyone but the water boy.
He broke the bread, he passed the bread, and said, 'Take this, all of you, and march with it, for these are the yards we eat on our way to the Super Bowl.'
Cornerback Jabari Greer intercepts in front of Hakeem Nicks in the second half. Ya know, I'm gonna go with what Bobby Hebert said, 'Greer is the best cornerback the Saints have ever had in a Saints uniform.'
Dude is fast. What an off-season pick-up. How about that Giants drive in the first quarter when Eli tried to hit a homerun to Dominick Hixon and Greer regained the ground he lost and swatted the ball away?
That's Pro Bowl shit, son.
Even fullback Heath Evans got him some TD today, his second for the season -- that's one less than me! -- but check him out as we ran onto the field for pre-game warmups. He's my kind of football player.
Sometimes during warmups you have to set a tone. So I stared down my former teammates and let 'em know I'm still just as crazy as ever.
Insert caption here: douchebag.
Ya know, this is the kind of lady I could have got behind during my New York playing days. Thanks for making the trip, honey!
Anyone notice how awesome our offensive line is? I know a lot is said about how fast Brees gets rid of the ball, but our O line straight up dominated the purported best defensive line in football. There were zero sacks of Brees. And I think he got hurried and knocked down only three times.
In fact, he had so much time back there on a few occasions, we could have suited up Archie and let the old man show his young 'un how it's really done.
Saints left tackle Jermon Bushrod, who is filling in for Jammal Brown, owned Osi Umenyiora today.
Who remembers Brandon Jacobs of Assumption High School jumping up at Remi Ayodele in the second half and putting up his dukes? That really made me laugh.
Here's the screen shot that sums it up.
Better luck next time, homeboy.
Saints win 48-27.
The Saints have now scored 45 or more points in three of their first five games this season.
Who Dat!
