105.3 was talking about the atmosphere in the locker room: RoMc was in charge of music and everyone was jamming. Even Jerry was liked it. Jerry said we are a long way from NO. The media had to go over and negotiate with him to turn it down. He turned it down a little and they negotiated further. OScan was holding court. They said it was evident he was the leader of the 2ndry. Gives a new perspective the whole ordeal with him coming out about starting when he came back and the Claiborne thing. He was saying "I almost had 2 ... the players echoed it ... and then OScan said ... but I looked good though".

Dez told the story about a NO fans who heckled him at dinner last night but he kept his cool and he couldn't wait to get on Twitter and talk about it. Hope she was watching .... said I know she was watching ... said who dat ... we dat. Classic. Said what made it so sweet is that he was able to put the dagger in.

What else was said?

I've been looking for videos. Can really tell these guys like playing for one another. This is a tight knit group that has been through the ringer and had more criticism than any other team in the league. Love seeing candid moments like that.

Great stuff, this team definitely has something that it's been lacking for awhile. I'm not sure how to exactly put it, but I guess you can say this team has found it's "swagger".

I definitely hope this win doesn't get blown out of proportion. They haven't won anything more than a conference game. I'm as excited about it as anyone, but want them to stay humble and hungry. It's nice being the underdog sometimes.

I see it more about them getting validation that they can play well against a great QB. It gives them confidence moving forward.

I hope they don't act like this was the Super Bowl and start coasting.

Actually-- I think this team has the personality where they will feed off how good this feels. They are lean, hungry, and scrappy on D-- and they have developed into a flat out nasty OL and running attack, along with serious talent in the passing game.

STs is solid overall as well. Dare I say-- we are on the verge of fielding the most complete team since 2007.

Perspective.....it's one game. Lose to the Texans and it's a wash.

I agree the danger of falling in love with your own press clippings. Fine line I want to see this team start playing with confidence and swagger not a sense of doom or waiting for the other shoe to fall. On the other hand you don't want guys relaxing and taking things for granted. They have got to continue to work hard and put in max effort
