Playoffs? Maybe. But one thing we know for sure...

I know people have been saying the Saints are officially eliminated from contention, but isn't it true if we tie with Atlanta and NO wins they get in?

Actually, no. They discussed this after the game on the radio. We're in if we win or tie. The NFL considers 2 ties as 1 win.

 

We're now 6-8-1. If we tie Atlanta, we'd be 6-8-2, Atlanta would be 6-9-1. But by the NFL's "math" our 6-8-2 would be the same as 7-8-0.

 

And, yes, NO is mathematically eliminated.

That...

Would be so funny if that happened.

At least if we make the playoffs, we won't be able to settle for a tie.

    • He really impressed last night. Accurate. Lightning release and throws a ball that 100% passes the eye test. He drastically upped his draft stock showing out like he did on the biggest stage in college football. 
    • I am not at all up for under 6' myself. That list is small and unimpressive, I really can't think of anyone but Wilson in that category recently I would call good that I can think of. Murray could have made it work but he is incredibly dense IMO. That's just bad odds. Over 6'? Shouldn't be an issue by itself.  100% on the second part. That's what matters first and would dictate an exception.   
    • I’m pretty sure he isn’t referring to outliers. Lamar is the most athletic QB in history, Top 1% athleticism. I get his point, about the ideal QB being 6’3 or taller.  Kind of funny how billion dollar QB needy organizations refuse to look at QB’s they just don’t like. Org’s rather flounder than be flexible. Lamar, Shedur….etc  Both QB’s we could make the argument we could have had.  Shedur would have been a distraction to finally see if Bryce was worth the draft spot (and Bryce emphatically isn’t) but we would have a low capital investment for 2026. Allowing us to invest resources in the defense (Sonny Styles etc..)
