I don't care, a win's a win
 

I'll worry about draft picks in the off season. I'm glad we finally won one. This was a good year in college football. We don't have to get Reggie Bush to improve.

No but it helps.

RE: I don
 

I'll take the win. Let's face it, no team is going to play to lose. I'll take it.

Brooks tryin' to save his job. We ain't the only ones noticing all the good QBs in college this year.

RE: I don
 

.. I'm with G5 on this one. Any win is a good win.

... besides, even if the Saints pick first come April, Benson is not going to pay no first pick overall money to non one, so we are getting no Bush next year :)

Besides, the Texans proved yesterday that they're more dedicated to losing than anyone else in the league. :roll: So I think they got that first pick locked up unless the commissioner agrees to treat us like an expansion team next year and automatically gives us first pick and first crack at free agents.

This is the time in the season where we'll go on a meaningless 5 game winning streak to finish around .500 yet again.

Our defense isn't that good to go on a 5 game win streak.

Especially not considering were playing 3 teams in our division still chasing a playoff spot. I would love for the Saints to mess it up for atleast one of them :D

Funny thing about this team. Now that everyone is in "save my job" mode, I wouldn't be suprised to see us win all 5 games. I wouldn't be surprised to see us win 4 of 5 and have great "momentum" going into next season. I also wouldn't be shocked to see us lose all 5 games.

The thing about these Saints is: you NEVER know how things are going to work out.

And tell me, when hasn't that ever been the case with this franchise?

Re: RE: Re: RE: I don
 

There was a time long ago when our defense was feared and our offense would control the game by controlling the clock all game long. There was a time when I knew Pat Swilling would blow Bernie Kosar's head off, and Ricky Jackson put Steve Young in the hospital. And Atlanta, phew... we beat them like a stepchild for about 6 years- they got us back in the playoffs... that was a great game.

Although we didn't win a playoff game, and believe me I was critical of Mora for not winning the "Big" game, we went to the playoffs for 4 out of 5 years, and those guys were so much more fun to watch than the team we have now it's sickening!

I agree with you BonB, we aren't a successful franchise, but I remember when it was... and our owner was cool and wanted to see us win, and he purchased the team just to keep it in Louisiana, and we wore the State of Louisiana on our uniforms.

I pray every year that we'll come back and complete some unfinished business from a better time.

Haz, Brooks may do just enough now to save their jobs again. I am totally disgusted that it takes your job to be on the line before you decide to do anything. I still think we lost the game last night and if the kicker would have eatin his wheaties the score would have been different and we would have lost. It appears that the draft will be lost now and we get another year with a bunch of losers. I AM SO VERY HAPPY, CAN'T YOU TELL.
