  1. Only took most of the season. This should never have been in doubt.
  2. I'm not sure who. The best available FA QB's: Malik Willis - Will get big money from some team. Has looked good in Green Bay, but what are you getting if you take him out of that system? Daniel Jones - Will almost certainly re-sign with the Colts. Coming off major injury. Aaron Rodgers - Will either retire or re-sign with Steelers. Russell Wilson - Could retire, but even if he doesn't he's not a clear upgrade over Bryce at this point. Joe Flacco - Probably an upgrade, but would be a REALLY short-term option and that assumes he doesn't retire. Mitchell Trubisky - I wouldn't hate bringing him in as a backup to push Bryce and he could be an upgrade over Dalton at this point but there are still a lot of questions. Marcus Mariota - It's like if Bryce was older and Hawaiian. Carson Wentz - See: Flacco, Joe and subtract a few years. Sam Howell - I'm sure the UNC homers will hype him up, and I wouldn't be opposed to kicking the tires, but calling him a clear upgrade over Bryce is a stretch. Zach Wilson - Has had multiple chances and has never looked like even a passable NFL QB. Pass. Trey Lance - He's like the anti-Bryce. Has all the physical tools, but struggles with processing. Again, wouldn't mind him as a backup, but he's not a clear upgrade. Gardner Minshew - It's like if Bryce was older, slower, white and had a 70s porn star mustache. Skylar Thompson - Some potential here, and another guy I wouldn't be opposed to signing as a backup, but he's certainly not a clear upgrade. Tyrod Taylor - At his age, likely not an upgrade or even a passable backup. Kenny Pickett - lol Jimmy Garoppolo - Was always overrated, now he's old too. Case Keenum - Aging backup who was never that good in his younger days. Josh Johnson - See: Keenum, Case. Brandon Allen - Who? Teddy Bridgewater - Will probably go back into retirement, but isn't an upgrade regardless. Brett Rypien - Camp fodder at best. Maybe, maybe not. He wouldn't be the first QB who struggled with consistency early in his career and figured it out eventually.
  3. To an extent (I don't think they're as good as their record indicates) but Sean Payton never really had a drop-off in New Orleans the way Harbaugh has had in Baltimore the last few seasons. Plus, there is a good argument to be made (as much as I hate saying it) that the Saints should have made at least one - if not two - Super Bowls toward the end of Payton's tenure. They had the fluke Minneapolis Miracle play one year that knocked them out and then got screwed by the refs on that P.I. no-call against the Rams the next year. Plus, Payton did that with an aging Drew Brees. Harbaugh has had prime Lamar Jackson (albeit dealing with injuries at times) and has only made one AFC Championship during Lamar's time there. Granted, you can put some of that on Lamar as well, but not all of it.
  4. I'm OK with picking up the 5th year option (mostly because there aren't any clear long-term better options likely to be available in the offseason) but I need to see a lot more consistency before I'd support a full-on contract extension.
  5. Harbaugh is going to be some team's big mistake. Mark my words; this is Pete Carroll to the Raiders all over again. Longtime successful coach gets a new job based off past success but it ends up going horribly.
  6. I just pretend he was our 1st rounder in 2024 instead of XL.
  7. Christ on a cracker, that schedule is brutal. Granted, you never know what teams will be good from year to year with 100% certainty, but on paper that's just brutal.
  8. Perhaps, but I'm guessing he completed more of these attempts this season for more yards than the previous two seasons. But I could be wrong. I'd be interested to see some stats on that.
  9. The fact that any referee or crew of referees favor home or away teams is insane. These stats should be looked at by the league after every season and dismissals made as needed.
  10. Rams probably win, but I won't be shocked if we pull the upset.
  11. fug all the anti-fans who rooted against this team. Take y'all asses on down the street and find another team.
  12. Me, too. But they lost. Now they can still get in with a Saints loss. Why would any fan root against their team making the playoffs?
  13. Anyone rooting AGAINST the Panthers making the playoffs needs to reevaluate their status as a fan of this team. There's no good reason not to want to win a division title at this point. We're not protecting a top-5 draft pick here. We have nothing to gain by not making the playoffs. Anyone rooting for the Saints is just a miserable excuse for a fan who just wants something to bitch and moan about.
  14. I get wanting us to lose during a lost season if it means a higher draft pick. But at this point there's no good reason to root for a loss this week. All the people thinking a loss will mean Bryce is cut/benched/traded and/or Canales is fired aren't living in reality. Whatever your thoughts are on either of them, there is ZERO chance we don't bring both back next season regardless of the result on Saturday.
