Y’ALL BETTER BE READY TO REINSTALL THE PAPER BAGS.

It was doom and gloom when Drew (God Bless Him) walked off the field for the last (painful) loss. It was doom and gloom when Sean Payton packed his bags. It was doom and gloom when Dennis Allen took over. It was even doomier and gloomier when Dennis Allen came back for more of the infinite REBUILD phase. At this point, the Peterman signing is just another clipboard holding punchline to what has become a bad joke. The doom and gloom is well behind us. Our uninspired and uninspiring slow descent into a swamp of obscurity has become laughable. It has to be laughable for some of us. My supply of low dose aspirin and cigarettes was getting low two seasons ago, and I’m fresh out of hopium.

I hate to be “that guy”, but here I am. Y’all are more than welcome to scroll onto “Quido in a tutu, waving pom poms in the air” threads for inspiration.

LOVE MY SAINTS AND WANT TO WIN SO BADLY Y’ALL… Maybe next year?

Just last year we were South favorites and had the best roster in the division.

Now all of a sudden we're crap?

I like all the moves so far and there's reasons for optimism. I can see 9-11 wins next year.

Some people don't appear to be happy unless they are mad, Fin. Doom and gloom seems to be the only way those people can cope. This sinner guy seems to be one of that lot. Sad in a way. But, in another way it's their own personal problem so I don't care.

Oh, and I agree on Peterman. Let him compete for the backup spot with Haener. It wouldn't surprise me if we signed, or drafted, another to compete for the spot as well. Ideally none of them ever step foot on the field during the season ... unless it's to hold on kicks, of course.

Always a new season always new reason to be happy don’t worry.

The only problem that you don’t care about is not a personal problem. It’s professional. Our team is failing to perform and inspire at the professional level, and not only do you not care, you actually enjoy it. You’ve said so yourself.
Dennis Allen is our Head Coach, and Derek Carr is our QB, so you can expect to drive five hours to every home game, and five hours back to your humble abode, knowing that you are faithfully subsidizing a sub-mediocre product that the rest of us must suffer through. Bravo!

I have you quoted as saying, “Winning championships is not the goal”,
Which is almost as ridiculous a statement as “I have set that sinner guy to IGNORE”.

We lost the Division. That’s Crap.

This season, you face at least 6 teams that made the playoffs & one that won it all.

Allen has a tall task ahead of him in 2024.

Post season results I think showed that our schedule was not as soft as previously surmised. Still generally agree on the missed opportunity.

A major part of that missed opportunity was Pete Carmichael swinging the bat. We are looking like we should be a better team on both sides of the ball this season.

Pete Carmichael became too easy a scapegoat for gross mismanagement in so many other areas. You putting lipstick on the pig that is our Head Coach/QB combination, is not going to give us the leadership that we’ll need to win our pathetic division, let alone any playoff games.

Y’all can polish this turd as much as you like, but our current state of mismanagement is nothing short of a slow, controlled demolition. DON’T tell me to find another team, because I bleed black and gold… but to come this far, and see such an uninspired and uninspiring series of (non) moves by a multi million dollar mismanagement program, is a DISGRACE to loyal Saints Fans. Our team is sinking into a swamp, and y’all know it.

Looking at our next schedule, and seeing how ready our opponents appear, Im tellin y’all… THERE WILL BE PAIN.

Rant Over.

It’s bad when the coach is bringing in personnel from the previous team he failed miserably as a coach.
It’s like we are trying to suck.
