What we need most is.....

What we need most is a real, quality General Manager. The only times, and I stress the word "only", that we have ever been successful as a franchise, is when we have had a quality GM. Not when we've had a Hall of Fame coach (Ditka), a stud QB (Manning), or one of the "most talented" teams. There have only been two, count them - two, successful periods in the Saints almost 40-year history. The late '80's and early '90's, when Jim Finks was at the helm, and the beginning of this decade, when Mueller was in charge. Isn't it ironic that the only successful times that we have had can be directly tied to when we had a quality GM?
