The reason why we lost that game was the injury to our starting QB. Had he not been injured we would have won easily. We would have also made the playoffs and likely would have won several more games. |

Re: Pete Carmichael analytics show you something.
The O-line has to be priority #1 this offseason for the Saints. It seemed to regress a whole lot this past season. I know age had something to do with it but I'm a little surprised that Marrone is still employed by the Saints.

Good listen (12 min) from Brees ...
Key points: Building solid depth, consistency, EXPECTATIONS, learning how to finish & evolving. |

Re: Pete Carmichael analytics show you something.
BTW, Max Unger was a terrific free agent acquisition. Elite player.
At the time, I thought trading Jimmy G for a Olineman was foolish. It's time to get meaner on that offensive line. Adding Kubiak definitely helps our case in those trenches. |

Re: Pete Carmichael analytics show you something.
We'd probably have more Landon Youngs, Rick Leonards, Charles Browns, Matt Tennants, Andrew Tillers, and Nick Saldiveris being developed, or not.
