I just want to check in and congratulate y'all for the win yesterday.  I've been a little preoccupied with one niece getting married and her sister deciding to give birth on the same day.  Spent Sunday after the game and today just trying to get my head back above water. Y'all played extremely inspired and the Saints had far too many obstacles to overcome to hang in.  I am the eternal optimist, but eight starters out, eight coaches in COVID protocol, limited practice, and weeks away from their homes had to have been a factor.  I was hoping that they could overcome all that, but there were, coupled with your team's excellent performance, more than enough straws to break that camel's back.

I can't wait to see y'all in week 17 in the Dome.  I'll be right there in section 229.  If you are planning on making the trip give me a shout and I'll buy you a beer.  Um, make that the first five of you.  I ain't buying for all of your sorry asses.  😉

Uh huh...sure.

After all that smack you talked, you must have a bulging stomach yourself with all the CROW that was shoved into it.  🤣

Nope.  I never expect a loss.  I've been a fan of my Saints since I was nine years old back in 1967.  I can easily take a loss if it occurs.  Over the past decade and a half, however, they have been far more rare.

Also take into consideration we were missing Michael Thomas and Tre'quan Smith, our top two WR's, starting center, and six of our offensive coaches for the week.  

I haven't, while not something to ignore I don't believe it played quite the role that you appear to.

    • I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?
    • LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.  
    • After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
