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.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
