I worked in the Student Loan Debt Collection Industry for the first part of my career. As a result of all I learned during my time there, I will never allow my children to have student loans.

 

But I was a little disappointed in that report TBH, because they let not-for-profit universities off the hook way too easily. Higher should education should be free, and other nations manage to do so. Ours it not only not free, but saddles people with debt for life. Even if you don't think education could be free for all (spoiler: it totally could) there has to be a middle ground between "free" and "costs as much as a house in some areas, and much more than a house in others."

After I worked in student loan debt collection, I worked in geospatial intel on software that could be used by drones. One time, on a date, a girl asked me if I felt bad working on something that could potentially be used to harm people. I honestly told her, "I felt worse when I worked in student loans."

      I think you misunderstand what I mean by "significantly better than Bryce Young." That gets you entry into the top 30 NFL starting QB's. Not sure if you have seen that group recently, but it's not a strong one the further down that list you go. Murray is a Tier 3 if not Tier 4 QB in my book.

      Here is where you are… for purely the sake of arguing with me you are willing to suggest the 2025 Saints RBs might not be better than the 2025 Panthers RBs lol Saints have the 28th ranked rush attack.  We are top 10.   The Saints haven’t had a 100 yard rusher the entire season.  We have seen franchise best performances in a franchise known for running the rock. and see above for what our OL is also clearly better than the Saints.  Hell, Canales being forced into some mashups has often made it even stronger at times

      I am not saying there isn't truth to that but the economics and reality of the NFL are producing that. It's very hard to justify taking a guy in the 1st round, shelving him for years, having to make a contract extension and THEN hoping it all turns out okay. Not to mention, imagine that scenario after what we traded for Bryce. One thing is for certain, the QB desperation has led to bad 1st round QB picks for 15+ years now. That ain't new.  I think we need to decide on Bryce's future this offseason and we will have to. In my eyes, picking up the 5th year option is the "all-in" move for a two year period. That means you are committed to him in the medium term. Not the move I would personally make.  No matter what the decision is, I have been vocal about needing to bring in multiple QB's to improve that QB room for when Bryce falters again. How about just overall improving your team depth so that when it doesn't pan out, you at least have options on the roster? I don't feel like that is too much to ask and it's a valid bet hedge.
