Observations from the Saints Win vs Eagles

The Dude · 01-01-2023, 08:17 PM

Sucks. Been a tough year for me. Moved out to the middle of BFE 45 min away from the nearest gas station or any kind of civilization. The only people I have contact with are four coworkers and the occasional guest. Big culture shock and lifestyle adjustment. The Saints having a good year would have gone a long way towards helping me adjust. Hell even seeing improvement or a positive sign of things to come would have helped…
That being said, who were the bright spots this year? Who has developed or surprised. I really haven’t had the time to keep up. I know Olave is a beast, any surprises?

Kaden Ellis
Peter Werner
Alontae Taylor
Rashid Shaheed
Juwan Johnson

Those were the young, bright spots in my opinion. I liked the burst Eno Benjamin showed today as well. We gotta have that committee like we used to.

Add Olave and Penning to that mix, despite his injury.

Olave was the best player on offense if you ask me. Dude is a dog.

I'd even add the much-maligned Ruiz to that list as he did improve a lot from last season - unfortunate he got injured and placed on the IR.

Sounds like a dream come true to me. I’m in a town of less than 7000 and can’t wait to get further out. Lol
