The official ***** and moan thread

[WillSaints81]

The Thomas hit on Graham.

We should not have targeted him on that play. If we looked at Colston or even Meachem chances are that drive stays alive.

I know its crazy and he is great (at home). However, he can't play outside and can't throw the deep ball at all. We need to face the facts he is getting old and has a surgically repaired throwing shoulder. As the season went on he got worse and worse. He will be our guy for the next few years and we will be an avg team because of his contract. So yes, I am excited to see what comes next because I don't think he wins another SB... just my opinion.

Ah, I see, your own personal private pan thread.
Might want to read the boards, we have an official thread for this stuff going on right now.

Ill say this and im done. Armstead did a dam good job today he will be a franchise LT way better than Bushrod. We won four more games than last year and made the playoffs so thats a positive. This defense will get better with youngsters like Vaccaro, Cam, and Keenan spearheading the d with the addition to some positions. If only the offense will get there head and arses wired together on the road.

Whether or not Carolina fails tomorrow, I dunno, but the only ones who want to see these West battles is the NFL and Las Vegas.

Todays atrocious officiating pretty much summed up the entire season and the entire season for any team facing Seattle who comes on as some of the most obvious cheaters since the Patriots and spygate. Beware.

Ah, I see another personal private pan thread. I'll just do the extra work of having to merge these since some of you refuse to read.

All class, Oak.

And that's a big ass B- wing!

Love my Tie Fighter, but the new 2127 piece R2D2 with the retractable front arm is my current go to man

I'm sure that I do not speak for the fan base on this. But I was satisfied with the effort the Saints played with today. Defensively it was truly bend and don't break throughout most of the first half. But they were the big reason we were still in that game late in the 4th quarter.

I'm sure most are going to moan about Sean Payton and his play calling. I thought he was a bit conservative at times in the third quarter. I thought offensively they were able to complete a lot of crossing routes and attack the middle of the field in the passing game. Brees in defeat was not perfect. But I thought he hung in and gave us a chance in the end. The protection was MUCH better and personally I'm excited about the future with Terron Armstead at left tackle.

Colston was in my opinion our best receiver today. Its frustrating the way it ended, as all he needed to do was go out of bounds to at least set up a chance at the hail marry. But it was still a long shot.

Overall though I think we are in good shape moving forward. I did not get a chance to mention the efforts of Khary Robinson... he is yet another young player that we can build around.

Well, for the last time this season... Who Dat!!

This is very, very hard for me to say; but I am also worried about Drew. There were too many underthrown balls this year. He never had the strongest arm to begin with and if that surgically repaired shoulder starts to go, it could go downhill VERY fast. And his surgical-like precision just didn't seem to be there.

I really, really hope I am wrong. Drew is my all-time favorite football player (except, perhaps, for Rod Woodson) and I want few things more than to see him win a second ring.

Hopefully we can keep the running game working so Drew doesn't have to throw quite so much, and get some protection in the form of a better O-Line, and he will be resurgent next year...

Things I took from the game:
1. Saints have a run game
2. The defense is so raw
3. The future is bright
4. The Panthers won't be going to the superbowl
