if the Saints get him i might literally weep. his unfair wobble-duck passes being miraculously caught for no reason will sting a lot more when its the Saints

There is nothing that drives me crazier than Wilson running into a sack, narrowly escaping, running backwards 10ish yards, and throwing up a no look prayer that somehow his wide WR miraculously comes down with. They never seem to get picked and he never seems to get sacked.

I’m not too concerned, you don’t get anywhere in without being able to beat good teams

Panther fans have a habit of thinking success will finally come once the Saints cap catches up with them or the older QBs in the south finally retire...

but in reality if the Panthers only means of success is for others to fail, well that’s not exactly a sustainable, winning mentality

sure it’d be ideal to have the Patriots bullshit schedule every year they’ve had last two decades but ultimately it shouldn’t matter if the right people are in place and make effective proactive decisions.

Good luck to the Saints if they manage to find the Draft capital / Cap Space to pull this off.

Personally I'm very much of the opinion that I don't care what our divisional rivals do until we get our own house in order.

We massively over performed last year considering the talent on the roster. That's an exciting place to be as it means our coaching staff is top notch. However, we HAVE to capitalise on this by follow up last year's excellent Draft with another very good one this year. 

We're at least another year away from credibly competing for the Division title (I don't care about being in contention for the now bloated Playoffs - that's not how you consistently win) and possibly turning this sinking ship around.

If they trade for Wilson, the math to get them under the cap might be something that would make Pythagoras throw up his hands and walk away.

The math required would probably rise Ry'leh and summon Cthulhu. 

Yeah, that sounds like a Sean Payton and the Saints dick move of all time.

One thing...

Pete Carroll is generally considered to be a fairly easy guy to get along with.

Sean Payton? Not so much.

Part of me does kinda wonder what might happen if a quarterback who's said he wants a say in roster management went to work under a coach who controls everything.

Could you imagine the Saints gètting Wilson and us swinging and missing for Fields/Wilson/Lance.  And either run it back with Teddy etc. Or draft Mac Jones.

 

 

 

Talk ablut a Dark Dark scenario for this organization and its fans.

 

 

Side note on Russ Wilson though.  I am SHOCKED that the Jets aren't rumored here.  Him and his wife have said they want a big "market" and NY is about as "big" a "market" that they'll get in the league.  Jet's have a the draft capital to make the trade, have a young QB on a Rookie deal who happens to be from USC (Pete Carrol a former USC guy)

Jets have the cap to build around Russ.

Guessing it's because the Jets weren't listed among Wilson's preferred teams.

new orleans is a plenty big market. they're already media darlings and would stay that way with russ at the helm. the hype would be unreal

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
