We got lucky last season?

 

BR obviously has no idea what luck Is. 

 

What a frigin joke 

 

 

I knew this would  be fun. I like the #1 reason.........because Sean Peyton is angry. Good stuff. I realize it's just a homer fluff piece like someone else pointed out, still fun though. Is it September yet?

I don't understand how this team is so loved after losing arguably a top 5-10 offensive talent in Graham while still not proving they can play any defense.

 

You don't win without defense.

 

Cheating stuff aside, the Patriots improved defensive play is what put them over the top. I don't have to elaborate on Seattle. The Colts have all that offense but their defense is soft and it showed.

 

The Saints and Falcons both have mediocre defenses at best and that's why I'm not too worried about them.

 

Any analyst that looks at this Saints team or the Falcons and projects them as champs are putting their eggs in a risky basket.

 

I'll take a consistent defense any day over flashy offense, especially a flashy offense with less weapons.

Didn't they lose Pierre Thomas too? He was a good player/fit for them.

Meh. We went out there and crushed both the Saints and Falcons last year, when the season was on the line, clearly showing were the cream of the crop in the division. Now, the Saints might've gotten better over the offseason, but we've made moves to better ourselves as well plus our young guys are a year older. 

I really feel we're getting that NFCS crown again.

look at how entitled saints fans are

oh no it's not possible that the panthers could have maybe been a better team in 2014 as evidenced by both of the blowout victories on the road in hostile stadiums against teams in contention for the division late in the year.  it was just blind, dumb luck.

e: also have to praise the writer for his quality analysis of our first round pick which basically boiled down to "mel kiper had breshad perriman ranked higher and the panthers didn't need a linebacker".  great poo i'm sure espn is going to be lighting your phone up any minute.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
