I must say these NFC South games are killing me. Once again I have to give it up to the opposing team. Williams is nasty and does not get the recognition like AD but he is just as good. You guys pushed us just as hard as Atlanta last week and probably more because I knew Fox would be smart enough to keep running the ball. I just hope you don't do us like the Falcon, Giant and Jet fans and come up with a bunch of excuses as to why you all lost. This Saints team is for real and to be honest we are not even playing at the top of our game. Anyway good game and much respect.

Once again our weaknesses are exposed... coaching and QB play. As usual the opposing team was able to come out of the half-time locker room with a better plan than us for the remainder of the game. The Panthers completely out played NO in the first half, and then the Saints dominated in the second half...

This could have turned the Panthers season around, instead it's another disappointment. That's just IMO...

I can't lie your QB play and play calling leaves a lot to be desired but even with that you still almost won. So if I were you guys I would be looking for another QB but I would keep Fox and just hope he does what our coach did last year. Go out and get an offensive coordinator that is aggressive as he is on defense. But I would not give up on Fox that easy. Your team played hard till the end and that is what you want most of all out of any team.

No, as I said coaching AND QB play... a better QB would have given us a much better chance, but I think the root of our problem is coaching, including game planning and play calling. Fox's conservative style is the same now as it's always been, but I've always thought that when you play not to lose, you probably will. You can't sit back and hope that the defense is going to be able to stop an explosive team like NO, especially with and offense so prone to mistakes like our is.

Well from an outsiders opinion if your QB is the cause of you calling a game like that than you might as well sit him because you can't just keep running on third and long. It's not going to work the whole game although Williams is almost good enough to do that. At the end of the day you have to play a QB that can help you stretch the field especially with a weapon like S. Smith. He's to good to have a game like that. That pass he caught at the end of the game was sick. At the end of the day your Qb is off but your Coordinator leaves a lot to be desired. I don't care if you dink and dunk all game you have to throw the ball more than you all did today.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
