Finally Rest For Saints
After playing thirteen games in thirteen weeks, including four exhibition contests, the Saints finally reached their bye week break a loss to the Chicago Bears.
Haslett is naturally concerned about the last five games - all losses - as he prepares to rest his team for four days. The Saints (2-7) have some time to reflect and try to rectify their poor record.
They will use the extra time to focus on the main problems that have resulted in their longest losing streak since 1999 - New England await them on Nov. 20.
"We're going to get some work done these next couple of days on things we need to work on, that we're not doing very well," Haslett said. He also suggested that the focus would be on red-zone offense, playing better defense, converting third-and-ones' - amongst other routines.
"It's something different all the time," Haslett said regarding losing streak problems. "It's just a breakdown here and a breakdown there. It's just something we got to keep working on."
