That's a tough one, but I went with the Saints missing the playoffs. The way I see it... we're already doing better than anyone thought we would. If we go one and done in the playoffs so be it, we weren't even supposed to be there anyway. This year is a success in my eyes. fug the Saints!!! We're on the way up and they're on the way down!!

Anything less than a Super Bowl victory is a failure. To be satisfied with less is a remarkably defeatist attitude and a hallmark sign of somebody who is happy with just seeing the Panthers play and giddy about the prospect of doing okay.

This team can go all the way. This is our year if we reach out and take it. Anything less is a failure.

Comments like that are exactly why posters who hold the organization to the reasonable standard of being a winning one believe that posters who rabidly defend the team during down years have been brainwashed by the organization into being complacent with losing.

      Some homers' opinions of the OTs that we may realistically be able to get at 19

      By MHS831 · Posted

      You could say that-- but if we don't need a starting OT this year, why would you draft a flawed one that is not going to play? (We are coming from different underlying assumptions and perspectives--I see your argument and don't disagree with the premise) Your thinking is based on the assumption that an OT for the future is more important than immediate needs at other positions, or that we can meet other needs in later rounds even if we take the OT in round 1.  I do not think there is but 1 OT worthy of a first-round grade---they are mocked based on need and demand--if we do not have a need for a starter right now, a team at 18 may grab a T that is the 33rd best player--worth it if you have no starting T, but not if you have a starter.  So just because they are mocked around the middle of the first it does not mean that the players are good values--teams get desperate.  QBs are a great example.  Simpson may be worth it in round 1 for the Cardinals, but not the Jets, because they have Geno Smith.  Sure, they will need a QB by next year, but taking Simpson is a reach. I do not see our need, with 2 starters (Walker and Moton) and another possibly returning by the end of the season enough to justify ranking OT over positions like Safety, Will LB--I do not think we replaced A Shawn Robinson (We gonna put a NT out there?  Wharton (280lbs)?  So do we reach in round 1 for a player who may not play much or do we get a Will LB that can cover?  A deep free safety?  A quality center? A playmaking TE?  A DT to replace Robinson?  A wide receiver to balance the secondary?  Long term, if the right player was there, you would be right.  Short term, OT is a luxury at this point, in my view.

      We arent switching. Evero is 3-4 to the core. Given how 3-4 has been a noticeable characteristic of top defenses recently and we have drafted and signed players fir it  I dont know why anyone would think that's a good idea
