I'm not a moderator though. I'm just a man looking to have a good time with people of a like mind.
A proven coach, which the saints had, and let go.... and quality players that were on board, but..... ????


Never said anything not nice.... just factual statements supported by my view.... If what the current saints football team is satisfactory to you,....enjoy. \
I expect they do more... afterall, the saints are a superbowl champion.

Mediocre just don't cut it anymore.

I see your point. Although, I'm not sure which coach could have come in and identified the weaknesses in the roster and bring in quality players like DA did this offseason. Who is the coach that you wanted to come in to fix the Saints? Which players did we not draft that you liked?

Okay, I'll bite. What coach is it that the Saints "let go"? Sean Payton? That wasn't their choice, it was his.

As for players, every team loses players these days. Quality players. It's just the way things work in the present day free agency era. You have to make the tough decision when pay them or not. Sometimes, as in the case of Andrus Peat, it was the lack of players at that position in the free agent pool. They simply felt the best move was to pay him.

And mediocre? We've had two years of unprecedented injuries to key personnel. That can make the best of rosters look mediocre. Before that we've had the greatest decade and a half run of success in franchise history.

proven my point....
Saints Organization failed to keep Payton interested and hungry... now we get to see his skills make the Bronco's a contender..

Quality players are lacking, and those that are quality have issues...ya know, the prima donna thing, and the thug thing.... and HAS Beens.... seems like the saints of old. (pre Payton)

Injuries.... meh, get QUALITY backup... MEN with the heart to play.

....thought you blocked me.

I "unblocked" you yesterday since I saw you actually posting real football related stuff again in other person's replies. Welcome back!

Maybe the only way you can find satisfaction is by changing teams. You already seem fickle enough with the Saints. It shouldn't be hard to find another team. You're always welcome to come back to Who Dat Nation when you discover you're wrong.

It must be sad to have so much pent up hatred. Feel sorry for you, my friend.
