Saints are where we should be..

First and foremost, I don't hate any team. The Saints, Bucs. Bills & NE all have competent coaching staffs and FO personnel. They know what they want theteam to look like and work towards that ideal. Their coaches game plan for each opponent instead we come up with a game plan that we think will work. 

People laughed at Bridgewater when he said that we didn't practice goal line offense. Bridgewater may be a lot of things but his character doesn't scream lier to me. 

I believe that Rhule is a leader of people, through his rhetoric, not just players but his coaching staff. His coaching staff isn't equipped to give him what he's asking of them and this makes him ill-equipped to be a NFL HC.

Had you watched the game, instead of going all Chicken Little dick, you would have seen that TB had no offensive weapons last night.

Even if half of Brady’s weapons were missing, he would still have more weapons than Cam did a majority of his career, plus an OL. The just got out coached.

Was gonna post a similar thread last night, but I didn't want to waste anymore energy towards this sorry ass team.  But, OP is right.  It's the difference between mentally tough, well-coached teams and teams that are coached by unprepared, collegiate hacks.  It was getting dark foe the Saints early this year after we beat them, and as I was watching that game last night I kept wanting to pose the question to the Huddle, "Ask yourself.  Honestly.  Does THAT team have more talent than this one?"  My answer, as objectively as I can surmise, is a resounding NO.  And yet, we've hardly been competitive the last few weeks.  We have a coach refusing to accept responsibility for his shitty decisions and his shitty idea of what offense should be.  Then you look at them, and despite going through 3 different QBs this year themselves, I haven't caught one clip of him throwing any of them under the bus.  Rhule does it to Cam every week now.  

It really does just feel hopeless.  Like, more hopeless and impossible than it ever has before.  As I pointed out multiple times in threads yesterday, we've now seen 3 QBs who have excelled at various points in their careers, regress to career worst performances in this offense, but it's the QBs fault?  I have kept watching in part to be able to discern what's wrong and to try and analyze what's going on, but I don't think I can anymore.  Seeing the same repeated failures and inexplicable idiocy, his refusal to play young players, his refusal to play the better options, and his arrogance have just been so off-putting that I don't think I'm watching another game he coaches.  I dont know what Tepper is waiting on, but I suggest he doesn't wait much longer...  this dude isn't setting a culture, he is ruining one.

The long and short of it is, the Saints are in games they shouldn't be, and win games they shouldn't because they not only play very good fundamental football, but also have a clear game plan that they're built and coached to execute properly.

Now, when you have issues like they do, you're going to take a butt whipping occasionally, but they're also going to be in a lot of games.

The Panthers could probably be close to that same level right now, but we're not practiced in any of the aforementioned areas.

Didn’t The Panthers beat the Saints,  before all the Injuries? 

my point is, the Panthers are capable of Beating the Bucs.

The Saints had something like eight coaches and I forget how many players out with the virus that week.

I wouldn't put any money on us beating the Bucs.

    • Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though. 
    • 13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • Because this DL is completely reliant on Brown being available and being a stud. Without him we were the worst D in history. The Wharton signing last year reeked of desperation. He just isn't a great fit for us schematically and I think we panicked a little bit when we missed out on Milton Williams who would have been a great fit.
