The trouble is, I don't think you get a ring for going 7-10 or 8-9 or even 9-8 which is pretty insane because winning slightly more games than you lost is such an amazing accomplishment. Apparently all you get for those records is a worse draft pick and bragging rights for beating division rivals once which they can brag the same. Maybe the fact that going .500-ish in this league does not result in a ring was the flaw in paying Derek Carr up to $50m/year. For $10 on amazon I could send a broom to Carolina, but Mickey Loomis decided to spend $150,000,000 to do the same.

That would actually be extremely impressive given the ridiculous number of key injuries the team has had to endure.

Not as impressive as watching REAL TEAMS play the Super Bowl in Gayle’s house, while our Saints play tiddllywinks with you on the couch.

The Saints have a DECENT roster with a horrible coach. As I posted in another thread with SP this team is at worst 4-5, 5-4. DA is NOT a head coach. He’s an offensive coordinator, just like my friend is a nurse not a surgeon.

He’s not much of a coordinator, but he’s definitely offensive.

lol. Offensive was wrong word but probably best choice of word
