Observations from yet another Saints early exit in the playoffs

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; A lack of game changing speed kills the team. There's only Kamara and you don't see him often break 40+ yards. I'm not counting Harris as you can't rely on a WR that small....

Bye Cook. Thor, Help him pack his bag after you pack yours. I don't understand why there was no passion. No one looked pumped up. EVER. Frigging Jameis was yawning on the sideline when we still had a chance.

I knew without Hill this was going to be a bad deal.

Honestly, I think we have speed, just it's only utilised to "clear out" other routes because Brees can't get it that far.

Knowing Brees can't fire it down field has to be why the Offense continually falters in the playoffs. Defenses are able to focus so much more attention to blitzing or double covering.

Anzaone was blown backwards 3 yards on a blitz. No space awareness.

This guy needs to walk in 2021. He's useless. Draft another LB.

I find it funny that people didn't see that Kwon was a huge upgrade over Alex but hey, he had a good PFF rating.

Re: Observations from yet another Saints early exit in the playoffs

Saints took a big ole L tonight.
I really hoped they could have made to next week even losing to GB.
Brady n TB won’t win against GB.
Saints loss , but gave TB big, critical turnovers. You never give Brady football game presents.
GB is not going to give any gifts.

If this is Brees last year, ok. He still went out a winner.
On and off the field, a winner.
He broke some records.
He is definitely a greatest player. An elite qb.
A future NFL Hall of Fame inductee.

What next?
Will he and wife continue to live in NewOrleans or move to, lets say, Indiana?Brees and wife, Britney, met in college at PurdueU.
Maybe they like Indianapolis, Indiana.

Will he want a coaching staff position or on air commentary position?

What?
We shall see.

I wouldn't be shocked if its not just a new QB but a possible new HC next year. Not saying fire him but wouldn't be shocked to see Sean want a year out.

I hate it so bad that his career ended like this. Id6almlst rather him take another season. I know it's an unpopular opinion here. But damn....terrible game. If he had had a badass season or a great game to finish the season..even if lost...I could stomach it. This just blows.
Folks need to factor that when they judge Taysom Hill...

Brees kneeling to BLM was a bigger loss than this game. Still glad he and the Saints lost and NFL ratings are horrible. We are winning folks. Stay strong.
