Wow.  More praise for Payton.  Mancrush much?

You think me acknowledging that makes me happy? I'm not carrying water for anyone until they show us they will show up and punch that zoolander fool in the mouth. You just can't handle anything but unanimous praise. Sorry that isn't how life works.

Then he gave 34M guaranteed(and a 3rd round comp pick) for a “bridge” QB? For what QB was he “bridging” the team to. That’s even worse than just mis-judging Teddy’s talent. 
 

   And the Saints didn’t trade Teddy. He was a FA. Don’t let facts get in the way of a good rant. 

Is that the same guy who said the Packers were being managed for the benefit of their "stockholders"..?

Or was that someone else who was simply making it up on the fly?

It's ok.  There's no need to hide your feelings.  Let em out frank. 

How did the Panthers look with Teddy chumming it up with his old pals on the sideline while we were getting trounced late in the game? You can drink all the koolaid you want but this mgmt has a lot to prove in '21 and it begins with a revenge tour.

@beo truth hurts huh?

The truth has nothing to do with your post, although it's pretty funny that a reaction on a message board would make you respond in such a way. I poo'd because a large part of this fanbase in general has this odd obsession with the Saints to an unhealthy degree. Do you really think that Sean Payton sits in his office all day conjuring up ways to screw over the Panthers? I truthfully wonder if half of you don't just view him as some sort of mustache twirling cartoon super villain.

I remember whenever we beat them last that there was some theory that they had rested our starters just to fug our draft position. Not saying you said this, but it's a strange phenomenon for a team that has less winning seasons since our inception than many 2nd place teams do in other divisions.

They're champions. The Bucs are champs. Even the Falcons almost won it all before us. If there is an odd obsession anyone has in this fanbase of a team without back to back winning seasons it's getting back to the big game and bringing a title to the Carolinas. If inconvenient truths hit you in the feels it's because you hate to admit it. The Saints and Bucs are the teams to beat if we want to return to league relevancy and contention. Is sitting around singing our own praises and ignoring faults going to get us anywhere in the short or long term? If you find solace in the best current teams in our division being awful half a century ago I guess slow clap for you. Some of us want more.

Rhule didn't win in college with great QB play.    He has never relied on it.  Two years into his NFL career he appears to be sticking with his same formula.  Prioritize defense. 

 

 

If he hadn't,  I'd have to assume he doesn't know how to build a winner.

Well, there have been reports that draft jockeying directly related to the Saints and Panthers have been a thing! Regardless of whether you want to acknowledge it, human nature as opposed to just business, at least on their part, seems to have played a part in their dealings.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/04/30/saints-made-a-spite-trade-to-draft-a-fourth-quarterback/amp/

https://www.si.com/nfl/saints/news/saints-stevens-payton-trolls-panthers-nfl

And call it all business if you want, but if there hadn't been some serious gamesmanship on our part, then Terrace Marshall would be a Saint.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/05/08/panthers-drafted-terrace-marshall-at-no-59-after-hearing-saints-wanted-him-at-no-60/

If you think it doesn't feel good to Payton to screw us, and for us to effectively screw them, then you don't quite know how the world works.

And, by the way, fug the Saints!

Why, because he began with defense? 

You have to build a winner situationally, point, blank and period!

You can't be so dogmatic about philosophies and theories that you miss the forest for the trees! That's how Gettleman did things. Hurney may have tried to build situationally, but he was god-awful at it on the personnel side (outside of the first round).

some huddlers: Its Rhule's fault!

This is just silly. Matt Rhule has maybe a handful of consistent critics here at any given moment usually. It's not even in the same ballpark as the nuclear fallout the mention of Rivera's name brought here on a regular basis. Most by an overwhelming margin want to see what he can do this season. If it is more of the same there will be questions like any other sport or any other coach. I do not expect that to be the case though. He hasn't looked haggard in front of the media lately because he is taking any of this lightly.

Honestly man I had just woke up and felt a little grouchy when I reacted; I didn't read the rest of the conversation up to that point so I'll just own it because I clearly misunderstood most of the conversation seeing as I was vehemently against the move to sign Teddy even when it happened and almost nothing you've said here in this response applies to my beliefs.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.

      Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?

      Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
