Observations from the saints Loss to the 49ers

Yet another loss from a team that is challenging and frustrating to watch at times.

Yes, the refs were definitely a factor in this game. They always are... and the team knows that and should be better to be able to overcome that and much more as it undergoes its ebb and flows.

At the end of the day, the Saints are what they are, and their record speaks for itself. Still incredibly, they are not out contention, although they should be, for the NFC South lead. The fat lady is in all likelihood gargling to get ready.

How many draft picks are we getting for SP already?

9-8 can easily win this division.

Does anybody really want them to be in contention anymore? I don't. I love this team, but they aren't good this year. They clearly need a new coach and a few more pieces. If they were to somehow win the South and get in the playoffs, that would give Mickey an excuse to delay what absolutely needs to be done.

Even if they miraculously win this terrible division they are going nowhere.

I don’t, but every loss gives Philly a higher draft pick. That’s what bothers me

Hell, yeah, I want them in contention. I want them to win EVERY frickin' game in which they dress and hit the field in our Black and Gold! I don't give a crap about what "Mickey" thinks or what anyone thinks. I want us to win every game possible. I can imagine preferring us to lose.

Where's that *vomit* smilie thing?

Who cares? It's an extra game I can watch before I die. I want every season to be as long as possible.

I thought the defense played well (with the exception of that boneheaded Harris Jr). Nothing was easy for Debo/Christian or Ayuik.

Too many missed opportunities (fumbles & missed fg) though.

The Niners were definitely on the ropes today.

I'm really, really stoked for the future with Olave and Shaheed. These guys are ballers.

So you want to see them get lucky and win the division just to get humiliated in the playoffs. To each his own

Luckily we don't have to worry about that since we are officially bottom of the NFC South again.

Neither Dalton nor Winston can propel this team to a playoff berth and the Eagles are likely getting a top 10 pick.

I think this team needs to embrace a rebuild and have a fire sale in the off-season.
