Observations from yet another Saints early exit in the playoffs

-Future is bright.
-Can't turn the ball over in the playoffs.
-Cook play was the back breaker. Could have been up by two scores. Game over.
-Harris is a game changer. Hopefully the neck issue can be fixed.
-T. Smith has the ability. Hopefully he stays healthy.
-Thomas got no separation yesterday. Could have been injury related. Very disappointing.
-Murray and Hill being out was huge. Again, the few plays they make are difference makers.
-Dline pressure was good. Not great. But, the defense absolutely played well enough to win.
-Definitely time for Brees to go. Amazing run.
-Sad to see Campbell go.
-QB, LB, TE, RB, CB, S in the draft. Love Hill. Would move up to get Jones. Reminds me of Brady. Harris at RB with Kamara would be no drop off. Pitts at TE. Moses or Parsons at LB.

This. Don't get me wrong, all the turnovers hurt. But this was the killer.

Some are still speculating on Brees' future. I don't think he has one in a Saints uniform.

But, whether he does or he doesn't, he was everything the organization asked of him on and off the field for a long time. Godspeed Mr. Brees. And... well, thank you.
