Just when I thought the saints could not find new ways to loss they yet again surprised me.

Considering all the defense has gone through with injuries and the shuffling of new faces on offense, not bad not bad at all

Plenty of good would of, could of, should of's to hang ones hat on.

Season still has a lot left to it, Saints can still make a run at it. No matter what happens for the rest of this year, the expectations for 2017 has to be nothing less than Super Bowl contention.

Lot of positives to carry into next year.

Few new players on defense and we could be very solid.

I have a sneaky feeling this wasn't meant to be a feel good thread.

Re: One of the best 5-6 team I have witnessed

LMAO Boutte I am an old timer and have seen it all with the saints. I know a bad 5-6 team when I see it. This is not one of them. This is a team that is pulling together each and every week.

Yes this has been painful yet a very rewarding experience at the same time. I feel better about the depth we have now than I have in a long time.

Kinda reminds of when SP brought in Scott Fugita and the gang way back when.

I have a shopping list and a sharp knife for cuts still. But at least it is trimming the fat vs slaughtering the whole dam cow.

Keep that D line in tack (re sign Fairley), a wicked pass rusher and add another speedy linebacker.

We are an average team. A sane mind can predict 8-8. Look at the fact that we could have lost 7 out of 12 games.

Sure we have the ability to be 8-4 and we could win out.

I agree with hagan. Cup half full. Get rid of ST coach, add another speed rusher, athletic guard, and a tougher TE i.e Shockey and we're golden.

I was going to say maybe a corner but then I remembered how good PJ Williams was playing before he got hurt.
