I think Bryce Young is going to be a tough out in the near future. He's got the physical ability and looks unfazed in the game.

This goes along with what I was saying about comparing margin of victories over the panthers. Bryce was playing his first ever NFL action when he faced Atl on the road. I’m sure his confidence level was much higher playing his second game at home against the Saints.

Phenomenal catch and possibly the best of the year so far in the league, to be sure.

My concern is the ball spin afterward...it was still a live ball because there was no whistle! He's lucky in went OB to make it a moot point, because the defender sure was all over it! College, that play is dead after the catch. NFL, you have to play until the whistle is blown.

Hope the coaches remind him of that this week.

While the Saints have historically occasionally dabbled drafting QBs high in the draft, the Saints' more recent track record with QBs have shown perhaps a better path with more proven veterans, albeit with a bit of good luck with regards to Brees, notwithstanding SP self-professed love for Mahomes for which he did nothing to ensure getting him as a Saint. Lattimore ain't no slouch either... he's playing lights out this year. We'll see what happens with the more recent crop of rookie QBs across the league. Jordan Love sat behind Rogers for a minute, as did Rogers behind Favre. Maybe the latter is a more prudent path, and even perhaps the one for our very own Jake Haener. Cap implications are greater than ever before. Time will tell.

Anybody still want Kareen Hunt ? Browns are still passing on him.

Cam is still a stud!

When others were doubting we would win at all, I reiterated I still thought we would probably win, but I was not happy winning a close game against one of the weakest teams on our easy schedule. Then we won a close game and I said I wasn't impressed. How can I be more consistent here? If we win at all next week I will be impressed because we play a decent team, though if our division rivals continue to win more impressively I will admit it.

We are paying Carr a lot of money and our oline is struggling with everyone healthy and active. It's not a great situation. I don't have your rose glasses. Could the offense all come together? Sure. But so could Carolinas, and Atlanta's could improve more, as could Tampa's. We are spending more 2024 money than any team in the league. 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.

You kiss your momma with that mouth? I have yet to hear you say one good thing about the saints without telling us how bad they are. You’re like someone who apologized and then says “but”. You’re like a parent that tells his kids he made a good okay and goes on to tell him about how horrible he did on everything else. If you want to give a play by play on how you “feel” about the saints then I say go see a therapist or become an analyst.
