Re: How the last few playoff seasons have felt

Sorry all. I’m not smart enough to attach the video I just took on my IPhone. Maybe it’s too large.

Re: How the last few playoff seasons have felt

In a word they have left me in a depression. The fella' at the phone store said he remembered me because of my vintage Saints jacket. He asked me how I was doing? I hung my head and then he said don't hang your head. They are a damn good team. He made my day better.

To sum it up, it's hard as hell to get to the Super Bowl.

Ask Warren Moon, Barry Sanders or Eric Dickerson.

Don't forget MVP Aaron Rodgers who failed 4 times in a row!

It’s really kind of made me not enjoy the regular season as much to be honest. Knowing that the inexplicable playoff choke job is coming just puts such a damper on things.

Yeah same to be honest, I've found my overall enjoyment dwindling year to year.

I've been able to get over the last 2 playoff losses at the moment the clock hit zero, where in years past I used to dwell on it for a week or more.

Re: How the last few playoff seasons have felt

how you lose is a big factor in how i feel about it
49ers in 11,Vikings with the miracle,Rams with the no call are harder to get over all three felt like legitimate shots at a superbowl if they won that game.

The second Vikings loss and the Tampa game not as hard. Out played both times. You can't make the mistakes made against tampa and vikings just beat the crap out of the Saints on both offensive and defensive lines through most of the game. Passing 66% of the time didn't help either

The day is coming when you'll look back fondly and mutter "Remember those years we won the division over and over and over?" If only we could just be respectable now!!!

Naw, winning the division is over rated. So is home field. Once you are in the tournament, get on a roll and handle business.

See Tampa (won 3 playoffs games in a row on the road) & Giants.

The New Orleans Saints have become regular season warriors.
