Saints on 2023 Hard Knocks?

bobdog86 · 01-12-2023, 04:16 PM

The show is done very, very well. Some teams are more "entertaining" than others. We do have some interesting story lines. 1. QB situation 2. Kamara situation 3. Thomas situation 4. I think Olave would be a good follow, Mathieu would provide some good stuff. But then we are the Saints, probably not sexy enough for HBO. Unless Goodhell just wants to punish us, which in his typical fashion.

It could get very interesting if we have a chance to land Derek Carr.

He's just bid farewell to the Raiders with his latest message to the fans. I think if we could get a good OC, he could be good here.

I'll quote Prime here ... "you play how you prepare and practice".

I don't know about that K Major, can you imagine how depressing following DA around throughout the series would be? Oh my gosh, there would be so little energy in that locker room everyone would be sleeping through film and pregame speeches. Alvin Kamara will miss time with his suspension most likely. Marcus May will miss time with his suspension likely. There is no good storyline in New Orleans currently.

But yeah, "keep doing what you're doing" isn't exactly what HBO has in mind for ratings

I'm sorry, but Dennis Allen has never told his team to "keep doing what you're doing".

According to Andy Dalton, Allen told him specifically to stick to the current game plan (ie. keep doing what you are doing) at halftime of the Cardinals game when asked by a reporter what Allen said referring specifically to the two pick sixes immediately before the half. It never was any ongoing general philosophy as being implied by some. Members need to try getting the story straight instead of spreading false rumors.

I have never claimed to be a fan of Dennis Allen, but spreading lies or unsubstantiated rumors is strictly prohibited according to the forum rules (See section titled FALSE RUMORS AND INTENTIONAL MISINFORMATION/MISREPRESENTATION).

Just an FYI.

Lets get it over with since this will probably be a season where we have absolutely no chance to compete deep in the playoffs. Then we can't be asked as easily in future years when we do, and the media attention on imminent decline could help to usher in regime change.

That's what the winking eye was implying, 76. It's one of those "I guess you had to be there" sort of references relating to some goofiness from that mapcow dude from a couple of years ago. I sometimes forget context gets lost.

Wow, this guy is an absolute CLOWN.

Now he's posting forum etiquette because what I stated doesn't fit his narrative.

Thank goodness he isn't a moderator on B&G.

I only responded because I see his quote as I've blocked him.

K Major · 01-13-2023, 11:39 AM

Mods, I really and truly hope you reach out to this AG guy one on one.

He's going to bring down a WONDERFUL Saints forum & run more people off & away from Black and Gold.

George (Saintfan) called him out last year and I can certainly understand why.
