Ugh TD would have been nice there.

Not a fan of that play call on 3rd

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Grupe!

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

So was Olave … guess you can’t catch them all.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I’ve been wanting to see that more down there in the red zone. Good play. Good throw. Just a drop.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Carr should’ve thrown it to the back pylon.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

MT wide open in the back of the Endzone. Derek Carr not the answer here. Nice bandage not the answer though

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Olave was out even if he catches it. MT was not.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I like Charmichael’s gameplan so far. Vilma has commented as well.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

That pass hit Olave right on the numbers. That’s not on Carr.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I feel that butMT was wide open in the back of the endzone and it was a safer throw

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

3 score lead …

Expect GB/Love to force it 2nd half, subsequent pick.

Snatch their soul, leave no doubt.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Yes it is he had a easier throw if he goes through his progessions he's locking in on WRs pre snap.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Olave was his first read and he was open. There wasn’t a reason to progress to his second read. It’s unfortunate we didn’t score a TD there but it happens.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Olave throw was forced even the announcers said it he was covered. MT was WIDE OPEN. Way more open than Olave.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Carr had 2 defenders in his throwing lane between him and Thomas. Good play but like rez stated good play just a drop :bng:

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Physics clearly shows that if he had used the force generated by catching the ball as a vector to oppose his momentum of falling out of bounds, his feet would have had enough friction drag coefficient to secure a purchase in the Endzone

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

The Falcons are down ten at the half against the Lions.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Olave maybe gets his left foot inbounds. I think the drop broke his concentration.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

No Doubt.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

How can he be truly covered when the ball hit him in his chest?

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Man go rewatch the play back pylon it's a TD. Olave had two defenders by him. I.E that's why MT was wide open

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I’ll call that probably the best 1st half I’ve seen in a while.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

The drop is on Olave. It was bad read good throw.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Well, I’ll agree we had contributions from all three phases.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Yeah. He could have had it. He gets a pass for his earlier catch though.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I did rewatch just what I saw Rell … again not an issue if Olave makes that catch.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Bruh you playing semantics with words "truly covered" Go rewatch the play then come talk to me. MT was clearly open for a back pylon TD and a easier throw. Thats my point. He throw the ball to MT it's a TD not a dropped pass

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I’d go back to that play again and see if they guard Thomas.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Not issue if he makes the easier throw either. Wouldn't have to "fit it" in a tight window. Defense gave us a td to MT you take it.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

The point I’m making is plays are called for specific people. That play was obviously called for Olave and he was open. If your first read is open you don’t even look at your second read. I could see if the corner was in front of him ready to jump the route but he wasn’t. The corner stumbled and it gave Olave space to get open. He just dropped the ball fam.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I just noticed that both us and the Texans are up 17 to nothing on the road in games that We were both underdogs. Let’s see what happens with the calls in both games.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

A pick or sack on this opening drive would be huge D!

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

I hope our guys get the correct cleats on for this half.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Taylor for president!
Sheesh.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

We are married to Carr for the long term. There is no moving on. To get under the cap for 2024 we have to restructure his contract this offseason. That would put the dead cap hit to move on in 2025 at $51 million. Then in 2025 we won't be able to afford that $51 million cap hit and we will need to restructure him again in the offseason before 2025 which will put the dead cap hit to move on in 2026 at something like $56 million. If Carr is marginally playable with the most optimistic possible spin and excuses we will restructure his $50 million 2026 base salary into a long term extension to remain a Saint through 2030 or so in order to spread out the cap hit. If Carr is completely unplayable and a job we will designate him a post-June 1 cut in 2026 offseason and split the dead cap hit at about $23 million per year in 2026 and 2027. If Carr is a Bandaid, he is a very expensive bandaid. Thats why I would have preferred bandaids like Mayfield, Love, Huntley, etc.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Is Alontae Taylor becoming our Ronnie Lott?

Do the young whippersnappers even know who Ronnie Lott is ?

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Keep both offense and defense playing full out for 4 quarters.

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

This defense is awesome. Yes, that was a “thunt“ but Lonnie who?

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Ha !:p

Re: Saints @ Packers Game Day Thread
 

Oh ffs, Carr injured
