Winston turning back into the int machine again (had 4 cracked ribs they say). Dalton isn't much better (but not beat up). Many on this board want the Saints to beat our ass so Rhule gets his walking papers. What is your feeling about this game? Will either QB kick us to the curb so it really doesn't matter?

If it doesn't happen on Sunday then I have no idea when win 1 comes.

The Saints have been beating Carolina's ass for quite some time. Specifically, a 2-9 going back to the 2017 season.

And, given some of the most dismal performances in the history of the franchise, I doubt another loss to the Saints will make any difference.

i don't want us to get beat...ever. i never have. not even when we were in the cam newton sweepstakes. i had every confidence that we were bad enough to get the losses needed to get that first pick. 

i highly doubt we will win, though. i just have no confidence that we will. i mean it's possible, but any wins we get will be rare and infrequent this year. i don't want us to tank purposefully. i just think it happens.

the difference is that when we were in the running for first pick to get cam, i was certain we'd have enough losses to get it. the problem is with this...just how many losses is enough for tepper to pull the plug? i just don't trust him to do it any time soon.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
