The NFL may have to step in and own/control the Saints* much like the NBA had to take over control of the Hornets if this keeps up. Stern is sweating bullets right now <What the hell have I done selling the Hornets to this Benson idiot?> lol

I think in their mindset they were trying to show Brees that they would still attempt to put a serviceable team around him even with the loss of free agents (nicks + meachem) and the suspensions that would have been doled out. Brees will NOT hold out. He is getting way too short on years and the money is too good to pass up, even if he gets tagged. I do think it would have been hilarious if Goodell took away their franchise tag along with those 2 picks as punishment for the scandals.

brees has already stated that he will not play under the franchise tag. They'll give him the contract he wants, or he will not play. The Saints* cannot afford to go into yhis season without breea. Brees has the leverage. Sitting out a year isn't going to hurt brees.

I'm pretty sure under the new CBA if you hold out for a season you are unable to sign with another team for an entire year after that. This may not apply to players placed with the franchise tag however, could be just under contract players.

Saints**** are going to suffer this year regardless of what happens with Brees.

Honestly I have a hard time believing that. I sure fuging hope so but the Saints* defense actually got better this offseason and if Brees is playing they are fine.

I think people here believing the Saints* are automatically going to be poo next year is a terrible mistake. They are still good with Brees.

Didn't say they are going to suck, I said they aren't going to be as dominant.

      Honest Conversation about Tulsky

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Sometimes it's nice to get an outside perspective on things we are emotionally invested in. NYT/Athletic did a midway breakdown of every teams' biggest offseason acquisitions. Here's our part: Notable additions: Nikolaj Ehlers ($8.5 million x six years), K’Andre Miller (acquired in exchange for a conditional 2026 first-round pick, a 2026 second-round pick and Scott Morrow) Early return: It took the Hurricanes some time to find Ehlers’ ideal lineup fit. He began the season on a line with Sebastian Aho and Seth Jarvis, but that combination didn’t really click, with their marquee signing registering just four points in his first 11 games. Since then, though, Ehlers has settled in and found his groove. The dynamic, speedy Danish winger has scored 27 points in his last 31 games. He initially built chemistry with Logan Stankoven and Jackson Blake, but with Jarvis’ injury, he’s been bumped back up to the top line with Aho and Andrei Svechnikov, with this new-look trio clicking impressively. Ehlers’ game-breaking puck-carrying ability has added an exciting new dimension to Carolina’s rush attack. He’s been a consistently dangerous play-driver (Carolina’s controlled 60 percent of scoring chances during his five-on-five shifts) and I’d argue his point production has actually undersold his impact on Carolina’s offense. Ehlers has collected a point on just 52 percent of the five-on-five goals he’s been on the ice for — he’s been snakebitten and has deserved to pick up a few more assists. I’m also still a fan of Carolina’s expensive bet on Miller. Yes, he’s made occasional mistakes and has been narrowly outscored during his five-on-five minutes despite his strong underlying metrics, but context is important. Miller was supposed to lead Carolina’s second pair, but Jaccob Slavin’s injuries (he’s only played five games this season) have forced him to take on a larger top-pair role. That’s meant eating a career-high 22:35 per game and handling some of the toughest matchups of all NHL defensemen. Miller has held his own in this daunting role, and I’d expect his performance to level up once Slavin’s return allows him to settle into the second-pair slot he was actually acquired to fill.
