There's a lot of frustration around the New Orleans Saints right now. After their 20-13 loss to the Houston Texans, emotions are running high. The defense played a great second half, but the offense and special teams struggled. 

The Saints got into the Texans 30-yard line four times and walked away with just three points on those four drives. Clearly, QB Derek Carr understood that won't get it done in the NFL. He was fired up on the sideline.

The Saints are running out of time on offense. They are too talented to have this many struggles to put up touchdowns. The red zone woes are clear, but they seemingly shoot themselves in the foot on a consistent basis. 

Players are taking the fall for the inefficiencies right now, but the coaching staff is running out of time, too. The fans are getting restless.

Carr played well at times on Sunday, but he would even say that he needs to find a better rhythm with his targets. It's clear that they aren't on the same page too often. 

With a short week and tough opponent in the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday, the Saints must bounce back quickly. If they don't, 3-4 will be staring them in the face.
