I fully expect we will try to stash Shaheed on the practics squad when Thomas and Landry are healthy for one game and he will be signed by another team.

At least we'll get a high first round pick.....oh wait.

Thanks Saints Management

Duuuude….you’re probably right. Lol

The cat is out the bag! They might as well give shaheed more playtime. Practice squad is out the question. Trade Harty or Landry, this kid is possibly our top 3 wr if not 2. Yeah I said it! The kid could be better than Thomas.

Oh yeah! Start Winston, I don’t want any excuses if we should/shouldn’t for next season. Bring back coach Payton, (these youngsters don’t remember or know the season of the brown paper bags). Allen is not the solution. Payton came here and turned this franchise around. We almost made the playoffs last year with less talent. I WANT COACH PAYTON BACK! All the talent in the world don’t compensate for devoted and highly motivator. These turnovers and penalties are details that Payton iron out. If they don’t comply, they will be on the bench. Wrong cleats on the bench.

This team is bringing back those days of ‘how we are going to lose today’

DA must have lost the keys to the Kingdom. Payton left him a stacked deck and he can't do anything with it. Not HC material.

Takeaways:

- Ironically, the major takeaway is this team is all about giving the ball away. This season feels like the inverse of the 2009-2010 Super Bowl run, in that the turnover differential is going in the exact opposite direction.

- Mickey helped facilitate a potential dynasty in Philadelphia with two terrible trades. The Eagles would draft 5th or better with our pick if the season ended today. More bad transactions could be on the way with Sean not here to balance Loomis' decision-making. We need a new front office.

- The team looks ambivalent and Allen doesn't appear competent as a head coach. The team unity is gone and we don't seem to be playing together as a unit anymore. CSP was clearly the patriarch of the team and everything I see shows me the players haven't come to terms with his departure. Maybe they have during the week and practice, but once the ball is snapped it too often seems there is a lifelessness to this team. Even for the casual sports fan, it's easy to spot bad coaching. We have it.

- Pete Carmichael has occasional good moments like the Taysom bubble screen TD catch, but the running game is unimaginative and has regressed to Ditka levels of staleness.

- Bright spots this year seem to be Juwan Johnson, Shaheed, Werner and Alonte Taylor. I can't list Olave here because of what we had to give up to get him.

- I know how much you guys love Honey Badger and Juice Landry, but I feel like now this team has gotten too old in general, and I can't blame anyone for desiring a full rebuild. I'm almost there with you.

Defense regressed with the use of two DCs. Our DL is arguably worse. No way Davenport gets a new contract. Shoulda kept Ceedy. Honeybadger isn't the Honeybadger of old. Play Shaheed way more. MT is awol yet again. Our OL needs much attention. Looking forward to see our LT coming off of IR.

Too early to fire DA.

Now, if the "stars" he brought in return to action next week and fail to perform then it's time.

As desperate as it sounds to say out loud, this team still has a shot. A small, very very unlikely one - but a shot nonetheless.
