You are underestimating how much luck there actually is in football. It’s why you dress 46 to field 11, it’s why the phrase ‘any given Sunday’ is not a myth, it’s why dream-teams often go .500, it is why with rare exception the Super Bowl winners and MVPs are almost never back to back seasons.

In 2009 Sean Payton had a whole pallet of horseshoes up his ass.

Dennis Allen needs to improve his presence. It's difficult for grown men to get excited by a guy that has the presence of a youth pastor.
That said, great win. I'm right back in this abusive relationship and eager for more.

Well, young men are afraid of youth pastors so there is that..

As I understand it, quarters coverage puts Shaheed in a basic 1 on 1 matchup with the DB, with no safety help over the top.

A matchup that Shaheed has proven he will win numerous times.

This. In Quarters every DB has 1/4 of the the field. 25%…hence the name. Both CB’s and both safeties cover anything deep coming into their zone. It’s supposed to stop the deep ball, but if a guy can outrun it then it defeats the purpose.

-Didn't watch the game. One of a hand full over the past 25+ years I didn't. Not doing the Ticket on YouTube. Wasn't on locally.
-From the highlights, big plays from Shaheed and Hill. Not a formula you can count on every week.
-Win is a win.
-Playing a lesser opponent this week in the Bears. Gotta show up.

My current streaming setup:

VPN (I use Private Internet Access)
kodi (I'm running on LibreElec to host)
Mad Titan Sports 2.0 Addon

Works really well. Almost as simple as choosing a channel on regular TV once you get it set up.

I hope the NFL eventually figures out that a large population of their fans are single team fans and that they need to develop a streaming product that is not app based (NFL+) for them. If YT had a Saints channel for $99 or so for the season, I would have bought it. But they don't. Somehow they think that a program that is broadcast for free in one area is somehow worth hundreds of dollars per year to access somewhere else. It's really dumb thinking with the Internet's ability to broadcast anything anywhere. And especially when over half the Saints season is broadcast for free here in the Atlanta area.

But no worries next week, because I'm actually going to the game!

Lol so someone is pretending to be Michael Thomas.

They've essentially cloned his entire profile, but the @ handle of @edits, instead of @cantguardmike gives them away lol
