We have to accept the fact that a WC is our only real shot at the playoffs.

First let me say, I hate the Taints, hate them with a deep passion within my soul. And I would love nothing more than to be wrong. BUT I am being realistic, and as much as it pains me to say this.. The Saints ARE the best tram in the NFL right now and its not even close. Better than the Broncos, Chiefs, Seahawks. Its almost unfair how good they are. I am fully convinced you could blind fold Brees and he would still come out of that game with a passer rating of over 100.

I just dont get it, it seems like everything goes the Saints way. Brees Sacked for a 15 yd loss, 3rd and 25? No problemo, deep 40 yd bomb to Lance Moore and suddenly its 1st and goal. Brees backed up their own 1 yd line? No sweat, 25 yd bomb downfield completed to some WR ive never even heard of. I cant even remember the last time Brees jersey was dirty due to being sacked. Yes they lost to the Jets but that was the exception not the rule.

The bottom line is this, I love the Panthers probably as much if not more than the most die hard fan on here. But im also a realist and quite frankly, when I hear people say "oh the Saints dont scare me, they are very beatable." No, they actually arent. Two weeks ago we heard "they face a lot tougher schedule with the Cowboys and 9ers coming to town." Well the 9ers and Cowboys came and went and the Saints came out on top.

Their offense is miles better than ours and frankly its not even close. Every position from the QB, the O line, to the TE/WR corps just trumps our corps by a wide margin. Their D is plenty good enough.

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
