The only real keys to making the playoffs, is if that dumpster fire offensive line actually blocks. Lol

Precisely.

With a makeshift o line, you've got problems. We haven't scored a TD in 2 games now.

Actually very funny and comical that some fans are clinging on to this hype.

But then again, maybe not, afterall.... there are a lot of fools out there that believe the pandemic is still occurring.:dunce:

I see Cousins is added to the Covid list so he’s OUT vs Packers. Probably a sure L for them.

Meanwhile it appears Trey Lance starts (Jimmy G still isn’t practicing) on Sunday. Vikings & Niners are trying HARD to help a injury riddled team (Saints) squeak into the post season.

The NFL is crazy. It’s gonna basically come down to the final week with the playoff seedings.

The Braves rebuilt their entire outfield halfway through, after losing their offensive identity when Acuna went down...and won it all. Anything can happen.

But the Braves could field the ball better than most. They could hit the ball well enough. Their bullpen was outstanding. The play calling was uncanny.

The Saints excel on defense but are a complete wreck right now on offense. We can blame injury. We can blame Covid. Maybe we should have opened it up more with Jameis from the start...but then again was anybody open? I believe we should acknowledge this offense wasn't right this season. Ever.

If we stagger into the playoffs who knows? Covid is the great equalizer. I'm just not sure how I'd feel about winning that way.

Acknowledged and understood 100.

Drew Bree’s can return. That’s the only way.

Re: How can Saints make playoffs? Breaking down the scenarios, key tiebreakers
 

Even if Brees wanted to return, he is on the Saints retired list. The Saints would have to release his rights, hope he clears waivers and sign him as a free agent.

There are 31 teams that would sign him just to keep him off the Saints.

I wouldnt hurt my feelings if we missed the playoffs and avoided getting embarrassed in the first round by a team that’s slightly less ****ty than we are.
It’s not just entertaining. Our teams from the 7-9 seasons when the defense looked like a scene from the Benny Hill show were way more entertaining than what we are putting on the field at this point. The defense was comically bad but at least our offense was fun to watch.

Mainly, we need to win our last two. The second season starts tomorrow.

Man, that would be like dating your brothers ex-wife. Ewwww. Drew would simply refuse to play I'm sure, and the GM that tried to sign Drew in that scenario would be voted off the NFL island.

But remember...

...when McKenzie showed up on Monday night and and the Saints beat the poo out of Tom Brady and Patriots on National Television!?

And there are fools who think it's not surging again like the past two years at this time of year. People are dying at record numbers every day. My twin brother just got out of the hospital with Covid. Oh, it's real alright! I nearly died from it!
