Re: Week Twelve: Saints Bye Week News and Discussion

We are not making the playoffs. There will be games we dont score a TD and we will tend to lose those. MVS is our #1 receiver at this point, and has career 50% hands that Reid and Mahomes could not fix, so for the games where he catches 100% and the games where he catches 50%, the games where he catches 0% are coming. There are secondaries in the league that will be able to shut down MVS and Austin, and that will put pressure on Hill and Kamara to carry the offense. Hill and Kamara are very old for their positions and are taking more snaps than every before and being depended on to take all the hits in the offense, they will miss games. We will probably not win those games. I am sorry but the reality is that a team with MVS as #1 WR and a 34yo coming off broken ribs as the focal point of the offense is not going on an 8 game winning streak. There is no world where that level of excellence with that makeup is sustainable.

Don't get me wrong. We could finish with Rizzi having a record about .500 and if we do, we should consider retaining him. It would be an accomplishment. But perfection is not a realistic expectation when you look at our roster and injuries and realize that the underlying reasons those injuries occurred remain, the previous injuries have left us with weaknesses that weak opponents masked, and more injuries will follow.
