One caveat: The Dome Patrol did it in a single season. DA's Saints did it over the tail end of last season into this one.

Say what you like about the struggles on Offense... That Defense tho! Straight fire! Even the Nega-Saints have to give them their props!

Kings of the Nega-Saints didn't give them props from what I just read here and slammed them instead. But, ...

... death, taxes, and haters gonna hate. Those are a given.

At what point do we put Peat in?

What do you think, Peat to replace Hurst and Hurst takes the roll of left side swing man, or do you put in Peat and move Hurst over and bench Penning?

Nega Saints want to see their team WIN CONVINCINGLY.

NEXT UP: Green Bay.

Sorry if I am not impressed by beating two sub-.500 caliber teams by a combined 4 points and only being ahead of one team in our division.

^^ Valid Bako.

We don't all have to agree on the team's performances thus far but a few clowns here claim you aren't a "fan or hating".

Completely valid take.

Penning actually performed better this game. Benching Trevor doesn't improve his play. He simply needs more reps.

As for Hurst, he hasn't look good in either games. He might be a better candidate for "benching". Not to mention Ruiz played poorly last night.

The Oline (collectively), needs to improve.

But in the end, I'm just a couch coach, GM and head trainer

- First half especially was an utter snooze-fest. We need to get better in the redzone. Need to ditch these "slow starts" that have become so frequent in the 2020's.
- The run D issues from 2022 seem mostly addressed!
- Granderson and Alonte Taylor are elevating their play big-time.
- I don't think there is much point at using Taysom at TE anymore. J. Johnson and Moreau can hold it down. He serves this team best as a power-runner at HB or FB or from the QB Power set. Would love to see more of him as a rotational HB. Treat him like he's Mike Alstott, not Tony Gonzales or Shannon Sharpe.
- Next week vs Packers will be a bigger test. Love is much further along than Bryce Young.
