Sean Payton - smart coach

The coaches do a great job of keeping the players focused on one game at a time. But if you don't think that they manage their injured players list based on who and when they're REALLY gonna need them to come back, then you're not being realistic.

Haven't we been saying this all year? "Next week, we'll..." or "Saving him for next week..."

I'm all in, fellas, but lately a different position doesn't show up each week and we keep holding out for next week. It's going to take every position coming together in one week, for the next six weeks. Consistantly.

I'll listen to any excuse as long as it's backed up the following week with results. But it's time to win a STATEMENT GAME and not fix something next week!

Hoping and praying up here. Hell, I've tried everything else...

I was just planning on typing something very similar to this when I saw you beat me to it Lyn...
