Hilarious. He was terrible for them at the end, came here and resurrected his career behind our elite front seven and somehow N.O. thinks he's turned back the clock?  LOL! 

That's the way it goes.

I like Harper here.  He was a good mentor, but we all saw he had some limitations.  It really helps when you have that front seven in front of you.  NO does not have our front seven.  They might be better than they were, but they aren't as good as us.

Good for Roman Harper. I hated him as a Saint, hated him through most of his first season here, then he adjusted and he became a very key guy for us. We obviously didn't want to resign him, so his probable only option other than retiring was playing for the Saints again. Can't begrudge a guy that. I have a feeling he'll be about as effective for the Saints as Charles Godfrey was for the Falcons though.

Uncle Rome was a big asset to our guys, seemed to add a lot to the team.  Glad he could have a good two years with us.  Will be interesting to see how he does with the Saints.  I wonder how bad the culture shock will be for him going from the 3 time division winner to a team that's struggling, especially on D.

I hated Harper when he came here, but I didn't know anything other than he was with the Saints.  He turned out to be an awesome guy.  Talked to him for a few minutes during his first TC with us, and I immediately changed my opinion of him.  What he did for the team, and the young guys truly was priceless, if you think about it.  Of course he's older, and slower, but I'm not sure that back end would have been half as successful without him.  He made sure those young guys were where they needed to be, and I don't recall a time he was out of position.  He would just get beat sometimes, due to the age factor.  He also made for great interviews.  All around great guy, and I will miss him.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
