In other Saints news: Drew Brees is the face of a $719 million pyramid scheme

This reminds me of some poo I ran into like 7 years ago. We were renting a house in 2008 and our neighbors were pretty cool. Dude did trucking for Conway. Well, he quit his job to join Primerica, which was an MLM scheme and he was so enthralled by it he quit his job. He ended up losing his house over that crap, and was constantly trying to get me to join him.

He even gave us tickets to go to some silly seminar at a hotel conference center and just like the OP's article, it felt like a revival. RVP's giving speeches about how they quit working for the man and were making huge dollars. Everybody was high fiving and poo. I looked at my wife and said we gotta get out of here before they start serving us Jim Jones style Kool-Aid. It felt like a straight up cult. 

These schemes are sad, but it took me about three seconds to realize what the fug was going on and get out of there.

There are so many of these things out there. They are all built exactly like this and sell the exact same products. I really wouldn't be surprised if there is one singular manufacturer for all of these health MLM companies. The worst part about these things is that they separate people from positive relationships with rational friends and family. Sheep gonna sheep.

    • I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
