The team went 15-1 that year... We beat 3 weak teams without Luke, hardly any kind of evidence at all that his presence wasn't sorely missed. We don't sniff the SB without Luke, we don't even make the playoffs in 2013 without Luke. Luke was as important to this team as Cam in their primes here.

Luke was very important. Not nearly as crucial as Cam though. Luke would've made no difference if it wasn't for Star and Short in front of him though and we saw that last year. Off ball LBs just need too much help to be impact players in today's NFL. This isn't 1985 anymore.

This is one reason I hate the fk outta the saints..game in hand and they keep trying to score...i hope they get pimped for a third year in a row on fked up call....bastards...

They are going to have to go through Seattle and GB most likely. Thats going to be tough for them. Especially if its a shitty icy and cold that day in GB if they even make it that far.

They'd be lucky to beat Arizona in the wildcard round. They're consistent chokers in the playoffs and that ain't gonna end this year.

We also had a TD, Need the LK to the TD we have now. Who would you put in the Whitehead/Carter spot?

I'm fine with Carter there. If there's an upgrade in the 3rd or 4th, fine. But honestly I don't want an off ball LB in the first two rounds this year. We just have too many other premium needs. Give me OL and secondary all day long over off ball LBs.

Seems like they will be full go against us next week

What are you basing this assumption on?  I agree, but I want to know if that has been stated yet---If Green Bay beats Tennessee, the Packers would win the head to head because they beat NO early on.  That would mean that the Saints will be playing for the third or fourth seed.  If Brees' ribs are still sore and they lost a player to an Achilles injury, it is possible that they risk a playoff seed and play Hill.  Cardinals or Bucs---as it stands now---is the difference---but it could mean home field later---so I dont know.

    • NFL is slam full of bias and idiots….who pretend things are super complicated.  Like everywhere else. They generally aren’t complicated.  Bad decisions get made because of ego and idiots.  Bryce Young didn’t fit Frank and didn’t fit Dave.  It’s not rocket science.  It’s legos. why didn’t Baker work here? Well, he wasn’t allowed to be Baker and he was never given the team to be Baker.  Sam IMO was largely Sam and given the opportunity to be it.   DJ Moore just isn’t the last 2 WRs Sam has been paired with 
    • The funniest thing about Clausen after his Panthers career is that he somehow ended up on the Bears with Fox as the coach and had to start a game when Jay Cutler got hurt. He threw for 63 yards that game which they lost 26-0 and where they punted 10 times. 
    • I don't always like judging a QB glass from this far out level.    It's all about finding the specific prospect.  The guy that just fits what you're looking for.   In order of selected (top drafted pre-Bryce)- 2017: Trubiski, Mahomes, Watson, Kizer 2018: Mayfield, Darnold, Allen, Rosen, Lamar 2019: Murray, Daniel Jones, Haskins 2020: Burrow, Tua, Herbert, Love, Hurts 2021: Trevor, Z Wilson, Lance, Fields, Mac Jones 2022: Pickett It's all peppered in.  The ones that tend to hit are well structured teams, who know who they are, identifying a guy that just fits them and they are confident in their skills and development.  Less pressure, set environment, sound decision based on a balance of things.     The ones that fail are when it's a crap team, at the top, taking a QB because they simply need one.  Their entire offseason revolves around finding one.  That can sometimes work out (Cam, Luck), but mostly, it puts a pedestal on a guy and they can't live up to it (Trevor, Kyler, Mitch, etc.) and it's pressure cooker.   It's why I don't (A) care about who many wins we end up with and (B) who TF knows which of these guys ends up translating.  Maybe Mateer ends up lights out..who knows.
