Like it or not, this team chokes in the big games.

2018 - Allowed Rams to stay in the game and let the Refs get involved.
2019 and 2020, I don't know which effort was worse. Both times they came out looking uninspired, at home, against teams that they should have beat.

2018 - Eagles nearly beat us
2020 - Bears nearly beat us.

Re: The last 4 playoff games we've lost, we should have won

I can see the closer to Sunday it gets the tougher it gets . It Fuicking sucks sorry that’s all it is we are tired of this Crappie play in the playoffs. Looking to the future with no Drew Brees let us move on.

We have been pitiful in the playoffs and it has cost us at the minimum 1 more Super bowl.

IDK what to say dizz. Does it make you feel better if Saints fans say we suck and get upset about the loss? As lots have tried to point out, only one team each year is the champ team. We’ve got a hell of a lot closer( and won one) than most teams ever dreamed of being over the last 12 years. Go ahead and b!tch about what the team didn’t win if you want. I’ll take what they did.

There is only 1 Super Bowl winner each year so by your logic 31 teams choke in their big games each season. Some more than once.

Very true, however we are the only team in the Superbowl era to win 49 games over 4 years and not make a Superbowl appearance.

You can blame Brees(which he didn't play great and it doesn't seem like he can get the ball down the field anymore). In a few of the years you can blame the defense. The refs played pretty significant roles. I mean you can say the whole team could have played better in all of the games, yet in all 4 games we our TEAM played good enough to win, and yet lost ignorantly. It sometimes feels like we are trying to throw these games.
Blame SP!


When will the Whole Foods meat guy make him accountable?

I don't know what Saints-Bears game you were watching in 2020, but the one I watched the Bears were never at any point nearly beating us!
