Cancel cable , cut the cord, install whole house antenna for free over the air TeeBee. Just make sure your antenna is about 30 feet up, in the attic. You only need 400mbs Internet service. Gig service is nice , but unnecessary , unless you got a bunch of cameras you're monitoring remotely.

We're fixing to build a greenhouse to grow our own legumes.

Lol, that's gaming/large video file, fiber optic type speed :p

We can't even get half that speed in our neighborhood unless we pay more than what our satellite TV is costing us now.

Not a good look when two undrafted guys are making plays and you aren't. Definitely not trying to knock on Trequan, but based on where he was drafted that's unacceptable.

Hard to compare based upon what we had under center and on the offensive line last year. None of our receivers had over 46 receptions. Tre'Quan only played in eleven games, two fewer that Harty. His catch percentage (64%), while not that great, was better than both Harty (61%) and Callaway (54.8%). He also scored as many TD's (3) as Harty on fewer targets. Last season was a total anomaly across the board on offense. Hard to glean much useful from the constant rotation of bodies game to game.

Cable 400 Mbs down is not full time, but on demand. The up speed is typically 20-25 Mbs.

The other slight problem is configuring a proper wired and wireless home network with MU MIMO. Most will have a regular router which bottlenecks and also wears out within 3-4 years. I invested in Ubiquiti Gear long ago. Totally changed home networking, future proofed really. I've got 5 access points for perfect coverage on the compound.

LOL!

1000 Mbs... if Fiber, it's both up and down. If cable, they shortchange you on the uplink.

Do you not agree that this past season was a jumbled mess with the turnstile at every position? Sure, I can see judging him and the others based on earlier years' performances, but what happened in 2021 with the entire team wasn't an excuse. It was a reason. Reasons are real while excuses are contrived. Or in other words ... Excuse is a reason or explanation given to justify a fault or offence. Reason is an explanation, cause or basis for something.

Re: 2022 New Orleans Saints: Roster Outlook

Our QB's were seldom given a chance to properly negotiate their progressions last year. Tre'Quan missed the first five games last season when our best QB, Winston, was running the show. Most of his season came with Siemian, Book, and Hill running for their lives. That is a fact, a truism. None of the receivers performed well over that stretch because the QB's could not get them the ball. I saw wide open receivers with the QB's dumping the ball to others that were covered on a consistent basis. It was ugly. 2021 game film needs to be thrown away or burned because it is meaningless.

I agree completely. That was exactly the point I was hoping to get across.

Don't get me wrong........I'd love to add a healthy Carson to our stable of RBs. I'd just temper expectations of him return.

A RB I'd love to see us go after is Trey Sermon. He's obviously in Shanahan's doghouse, and buried on that depth chart. I wonder what price he could be had.
