11-0 ….. Seriously…We are 11-0!!!
December 4, 2009
Wow! We are 11-0!!!! This is such a great feeling! Monday night was AWESOME!!!!!!! Thanks to every single fan in the Dome for being there to support us! You guys had that place ROCKIN’!!! I had so much fun, and so did the entire team! We knew we were ready to take the field Monday and give the Patriots all that we had, but the outcome of the game was so much better than I think we every expected!
How ’bout Mike McKenzie stepping in like that for Randall Gay and comin’ up huge on those plays! I was so happy for him! He’s a GREAT guy and I’m so glad he was still out there available to come back and play for us when we needed him. Then, Darren Sharper with ANOTHER pick?! …. That was awesome!
There were so many components of Monday night that came together to help us win….naturally Drew, Coach P, and Coach Williams on the defensive side of the ball, but I’ve got to give ALOT of credit to our Offensive Line. That’s where EVERYTHING started for us on offense Monday night. Those guys gave Drew time to make smart decisions. They gave Mike, Lynell, and room to run with the ball. They played their butts off on Monday night and I want everyone to know how great our O-Line is! They’re great on the field, but they’re also GREAT GUYS off the field! Jon Stinchcomb is one of our best leaders. We are really lucky to have him.
Okay, I could go on and on about Monday night, but………..it’s over! We’re past that game and onto the Redskins. But, before I talk about Sunday’s game, I just wanted to thank ALL of our fans. Obviously not everyone could be in The Dome on Monday night. But, as I’ve been out and about this week running errands or grabbing a bite to eat, people keep coming up and congratulating me. We truly have the best fans in the NFL and I want to thank all of you for being there for us this season!
So………Saturday we head to DC for our Sunday game against the Redskins. OK, first of all it’s gonna be COLD!!! …. I guess it’s been kind of good for us to have some colder weather in NOLA this week, because it will probably help us out when we take the field on Sunday. But, STILL…..it’s gonna be cold!
The Redskins may not have a great record, but we know it’s gonna be a battle on the field. Like I said before, EVERY player on EVERY team practices all week to win. I know they’ve got the #2 ranked pass defense in the league right now. So, it should be interesting to see how our passing game works for us on Sunday. If we play like we did on Monday night, then we’ve got a good chance! Maybe in our favor is the fact that they are ranked #25 in run defense. I know Mike, Lynell, and I would love to play a key part in a win on Sunday!!
Welllllll……we’ll see what happens Sunday at Noon CST, won’t we?!
I hope that everyone had a GREAT Thanksgiving?!
Who Dat!
