Saints @ Panthers Game Day Thread

I would take a time machine back 6 months and do a rebuild over this version of 2-0. We just faced a team that Atlanta beat by 14 which then lost 3 more starters and we beat them by 3. I think you honestly can't look at us as division favorites after barely escaping the bottom team by 3 points.

I think we could be just about as competitive had we stayed out of the Carr sweepstakes, picked up someone like Mayfield or Huntley to compete with Winston for cheap, and spent our money cleaning up our salary cap by getting rid of guys like Peat, Hill (if he wouldn't take a major paycut to reflect that he ain't Kelce), Thomas, and Kamara who won't be part of the solution long term.

I always thought we would win this game. I hoped we would look better and win by more. Given this result, I expect the upcoming games to be rough.
