Just a friendly reminder about today's victory...

From the tweet I shared last week...

 

So the 13th worst head coach in NFL history defeated the 7th worst coach in NFL history (going into this game).  A win is a win I suppose, but it's also all about perspective.  

We are bad, but the Aints are worse.  I'd like to think we laid some foundational blocks of momentum that will carry into future games, but I don't think we did.  We just beat a team that happens to somehow be worse than us.

I was reading this story regarding Dennis Allen and Winston.  It gave me very bad vibes about Allen.  He is an asshole

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34666113/new-orleans-saints-not-considering-change-qb-1-2-start

Just sounds like another guy in over his head.  I know he wants to believe he was going to inherit the reins and they wouldn't skip a beat, but anyone that watched his time in Oakland could see, he just doesn't have "it" as a head coach.

Also, interestingly enough, what I learned from that article was that was Ronald Curry who Jameis got into the spat with on their sideline.  Wow.  I was a huge Ronald Curry fan growing up...  I had no idea that was him when they showed him during the broadcast.

Yeah, we probably just cost ourselves draft position. We aren't winning many games with the offense we're fielding right now. We basically need the other team to beat themselves and the Saints did that today.

Even then it’s unlikely. In over 25 years of watching football, I have literally, rarely seen a team beat themselves as much as the Browns did week 1 and we still lost. It really is about draft position.

If Rhule can muster up 4-2 or 3-3 over the next few weeks, maybe something is possible. But I just don’t see it.

He definitely was.  And he played for the basketball team the same time Pep played both football and basketball...  Good times.  I remember us recruiting him out of VA as a two-sport guy, but I'd didn't keep uo heavy with that stuff then, I just knew the hype was he was one of the greatest athletes out of HS ever...  I still wish an NFL team would've given him a shot as a QB.  He ended up being a solid receiver despite the position change, but I think the achilles injury really derailed his pro career.  But man, he was fun to watch in college...  I used to trade for him in Madden Franchise and try to turn him into a star for the Panthers.😂

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
