I agree, this seems fair and perhaps slightly optimistic.  Our performance against the Jets lacked a lot of polish and the Saints looked like, well, the Saints.  I'd love to see us simply be competitive in the game with a chance to win at the end.

You may be onto something there.  I checked our roster, and (unless Zylstra is one), I couldn't find a single polish player.  What happened to diversity?

Come now.  You'll be tickled shitless to see that play for the Panthers.  

The play is great the defense is terrible and your quarterback still manages to almost screw up an easy layup not to mention your TE there mistimed that jump and made it a far more difficult catch than it needed to be...

Yet the collective "opinion" of the "market" has an amazing ability to accurately signal the outcome. 

Dam they are good, so glad I learned that looooonnng ago. One of fav gramblers had a segment on his show where he would take on a coin . This guy had experience, insight, real sources/contacts, etc etc. I mean he was a pure degenerate too.... I was in shock that more than a few weeks, that piece of metal with a flip beat him. Even one time by week 10 the coin was ahead in the the overall lead. Heads was home and tails was visitor.

What a pile of steaming bovine dung that is...

So wait...

you're claiming that the fact bookies can figure out who is likely to win causes the team to win? Regardless of whether you like the way I describe it, it does boil down to their ability to math the variables against historical data.

I mean, I get it, you don't have an argument based on merit, so you just fling poo, but that doesn't change the truth of what I said.

Correlation of winning and bookies ability to predict same does not mean one causes the other.

And that ain't no poo.

Okay, I'll give you a little input on the weapons available for the Saints.  In addition to Kamara at RB is Tony Jones, Jr.  He's a Darren Sproles type player with more size.  He's quick to the hole and tough to bring down.  Also useful in the passing game.  At TE there's Juwan Johnson, a big bodied (6'5" 250) converted WR with very good hands and leaping ability.  He's scored twice last week on three catches and three targets.  Also at TE is Adam Trautman who has drawn comparisons with Kelce and Kittle.  At WR is Marcus Callaway (preseason stud), Deonte Harris (quick and fast with great hands - TD last week), Veteran WR Chris Hogan (TD last week, as well),  Ty Montgomery, and finally Lil'Jordan Humphrey who is anything but little at 6'4" 210.

If only your team could quit blowing playoff games

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
