kungfoodude The only choking Drew did was to your team's playoff dreams.  With a good defense during his prime and fair refs, Drew would have had at least three rings. At least your team didn't lose the SB after being up 28-3 🤣.

The thing Drew really did best was take a winning situation and not be able to capitalize on it. 

I mean....Pat Mahomes drug a weak defense to a SB title. Joe Burrow almost did. I guess that is what real elite talent does, not need everything to be perfect around them in the playoffs.

Fair refs dude? The refs let y’all get away with murder against Favre  and the Vikes in  the NFC championship game to even get to that Super Bowl. Blatantly. The NFLwanted the “lets get a ring for Katrina hit New Orleans story line”. Enjoy them Crab legs haha

Have a good day kungfoodude!  Just stating my opinion - no offense and good luck! Drew really did a lot with a poor defense but his ability to carry the team late in his career was decreasing with age. At one point his ability was on the same level of the QBs you mentioned, especially Mahomes. Sean wanted Mahomes in that draft by the way, but KC jumped us to grab him.

I made the mistake of mentioning their lord and savior "Breesus Christ"

Quick throw some cheap bourbon and old mardi gras beads over your right shoulder and mention the Vikings playoff game to make them disappear!

Baker has a photographic memory and has a very high IQ.  He has the potential to be better than Brees in every single category.

Yeah, nobody is saying Mayfield is not smart.  I was just acknowledging that Brees processed information on the field very well, and that was one of his assets.

Brees also played in an offense that was perfectly suited to his strengths.  That was probably by design, but it had the impact of maximizing his performance and numbers.  Most likely, Mayfield is going to be throwing the ball downfield more often by comparison, which will have an impact on his completion percentage and interceptions.  I expect he will be earning his living with a lot of medium-range passes.

Truth is, I don't think I want Mayfield in the offense Brees mastered.  It would be about like putting Jim Kelly in a WCO.  He can probably do it, but it does not take advantage of his strengths.

If Mayfield can do well in the medium-range passes and take an occasional shot downfield, that will prevent opposing defenses from crowding the line and should open up a number of things, including the run.  It has been a few years since our opponents have had to fear anything down the field.

That was a fair hit HUDDLER against Favre and even Favre admitted it. I was referring to the no call against the RAMS while your team was at home eating popcorn. And all the crap we put up with b/c Badell wanted to make an example out of our team for so many years (BS bounty program that most teams were running). Don't give me the BS, we know our team was playing just as fair as every other team in the NFL.

Well, when you run a lawless, illegal, poo organization for a decade, those are the consequences.

The Saints got away with multiple penalties that game. As far as the non call goes. That’s just karma for all the years the refs played storymode for you.

joemac if you looked at the stats, you would see that the Saints didn't get called for more illegal hits then most teams the year of the so called bounty program. Badell used the Saints as an example and in turn tried to help every other team in the South/NFC. If it was such a bad program, don't you agree that the refs calls would show they were dirty plays with yellow flags?

Done talking to y'all now and can't wait to beat your team with Lobber Legs again. By the way at FSU it wasn't crab legs... Have fun believing that your team will actually have a winning record again with no coach. 

You guys have a coach?  Is Kamara suspended yet for jumping that guy?  Is Thomas injured yet?

PS Winston is a creep

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
