And just say no to Baker Mayfield. He's not gonna work either.

IMO if the Carr deals goes south, just roll with what you have, destroy your 2023 draft & load up on younger NFL talent.

The Saints have a lot of older players. Youth movement.

The NFL is a young man's game .

Or let Taysom actually play and draft QBs the next coupe of years .

If we don't get Carr and the franchise refuses to give Jameis Winston another opportunity, I'd prefer to just roll with Taysom at QB. Shane Steichen would have been the perfect head coach to bring in for him...but we stuck with Allen.

I'm just concerned that Taysom wouldn't last the season the way he plays. If we don't get Carr I hope to hell they give Winston a shot again. He's as good or better than any other option out there right now other than Carr.

Speaking of not making it through a season.

If Sean Payton or some other innovative offensive mind was here, sure but with Carmichael calling plays ... meh. See 2022 offense. Why the lack of screen plays for a stud RB in AK? Why is Taysom on the sideline when it's 3rd down? SMH

He's way too predictable as a play caller.

Just my random thoughts but hey, I'm just a couch coach/GM

Is there a place to register for the couch coach/ GM course? Is it online?

Music to my ears... Tank the next season and then start the next season after that with high draft picks, expensive contracts off the books and a new staff running things

How do you propose we tank when all of the coaches and players will be working their asses off to win as many games as is possible? That concept has always befuddled me.

Personally, I'd rather see us kick ass next season and make a deep run in the playoffs. To each his own, I guess.

I thought it was clear, but to explain it to you... I don't expect the players or coaches to deliberately lose, but if the talent isn't there on either side of the equation, then it follows that they'll lose more games then they'll win.

The premise was that Hill as the QB and Carmichael as the OC wouldn't work, which I stated would be preferable to a 6 to 9 win season with Carr and no chance to advance in the playoffs.

I'd personally rather see the Saints win the SB within the next decade, but to each their own I guess.
