Emotions are running high in New Orleans. After a loss to the Minnesota Vikings, New Orlean Saints defensive lineman Malcolm Roach was visibly upset when talking to the media. He knows that the team is better than they have shown this year.

Check out his discussion after the loss below, via NOFNetwork.

Roach mentions that hard work that the players and coaches are putting in, but the results aren't getting the job done. There's clear passion behind his words a facial expressions. 

Interviews like this one are why fans should never doubt the 'want to' from players. They work their tails off, and they know the expectations. Roach is not a highly-touted player, but he has been an important piece in run defense this season for the Saints.

Overall, Roach is certainly one of many players that realizes that the Saints are not living up to their potential as a roster this season, and it i sighing on him.

They'll look to get back on track after their bye week in Week 11.
