And yet saints fans are happy about it? That doesn’t seem like the reaction of an embarrassed fan base 

Are they?

I don't spend time on any other board other than this one.

More like embarrassing that they only scored 1 TD today courtesy of Michael Jordan - and it wasn't the goat NBA one...

Imagine thinking we embarrassed the Saints by winning a game they didnt want to win. 

We also moved down one spot in the draft and gave ourselves a harder schedule for next season! WTG!

Why would they not be, it was a meaningless game and it gave the winning team a harder schedule for next season.

Now we get the 2nd place schedule next season.

Winning the game at hand is always top priority. What the Texans did yesterday should put to rest any “franchise building trumps winning games” philosophy that many armchair GM’s embrace 

They went head to head with the 2nd worst team in the league, they are still picking #2 and the bears dont need a QB, unless someone trades in front of them.

So we're just assuming....

cool.

Lol assuming. Your just looking to argue for the sake of argument. Winning that game had no benefit for next season. Building morale by backing into a 10-7 win against a garbage team that wasnt thinking about winning.

I am fine either way when it's something I can't control.  That being said, the only part that stinks is it's Atlanta who got the spot right in front of us due to the Panthers winning.  I do not know much about this QB class and it appears it's not that deep, etc but we missed out on Hebert due to one draft spot and Atlanta might want a QB.  Oh well, we will see how it plays out.

Those are grown men competing out there.

They are not going to deliberately throw the game.

Let's be realistic here.

That only happens when you play Madden or something.

Woah bud, dont move the goalposts.

The conversation was saints fans were happy that they lost the game.

    • I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

    • Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
