How I Felt After the Game

[Dunn]

It sounds weird, but I'd rather lose with us having the ball in the end, then with them beating us for a final score.  Last night stunk but I wasn't too upset about it, unlike SB50.

In a weird way I am kind of glad the season is over. This season had some High-Highs (win over Pats, packers, and Vikings) and some Low-lows (Bears, JR falling out, the way the season ended in Atlanta). Mentally I was exhausted and really had little faith we were gonna win. While I was sad we lost, at the same time I was glad not to have to worry about anything else anymore. 

Go Heels then?

Same here.  After the Super Bowl loss I removed myself emotionally from this team and game. I actually see the team clearer now and it’s not so hard to admit they are mediocre and have been forever.  

This.

First post here. Just wanted to say that I felt somewhat attached to this team since the NFC was really wide open this year and that we could've made a deeper run. The didn't hurt me as much as Super Bowl 50 but I still believe that are Super Bowl Window won't be closed for years to come. I'm extremely excited about next season and I'm looking forward to returning the favor to New Orleans again.

This year has been different for me. I honestly did not have the emotional ties to this season, and was not totally distraught after the game. I thought the game ended better than expected with us having a chance in the end. 

Me too, I wasn’t in love with our offense at all and our defense was clearly wearing down as the season went on. Wasn’t expecting us to win the super bowl this year, but to have beat NO in the super dome when it mattered most would have been nice!

I really wasn't that upset about the outcome, as I didn't think we would win with the coaching staff we have. What upsets me the most is yet another year with Cam's talent being wasted.

First off, welcome. 

Second, why are you excited for next year and what makes you hopeful we will continue to be good?

Third, Diddy won’t be the owner

I believe that if we can fine tune our offense and snag a play maker in FA then we could really be contenders next season. As for your last comment a man can dream lol.

I went into this game hoping that we could pull it out, figured we could keep it close into the 4th... really didn’t expect us to win so I’m alright.

Several years ago I went into my wife hoping I could pull it out.  But I couldn't.  Now I have two friggin kids.

Pretty bummed...season over is always depressing

the aints are better than us but we gave it a big effort...proud of that

i say right now...aints and falcons both win next week

I told my son before the game that the winner of Saints/Carolina is going to the super bowl.  I still think that.  Also believe it will be a Saints-Falcon NFC championship game.  Cheering for Brady again.  It really sucks
