:lol yeah that was a rough year

Re: 1993?
 

if my memory is right, that is the year we were undefeated and playing pitsburgh...we got crushed so bad that the sports bar i was in changed the game

Re: 1993?
 

The one thing I hate to point out but this loss was after a bye week.

Re: 1993?
 

Don’t remind me

I have been sitting thinking about that fact for a few days now

lets think positively

Re: 1993?
 

Oh trust me, I'm thinking positive but I also believe this team will stay focus and being that this is a conference game they should come out and take care of business.

Re: 1993?
 

WOW. Brought back memories of the Steve Walsh song they would play on the radio all the time...."Steve Walsh baby"..

Re: 1993?
 

Yep, that 93 season was something. Wade Wilson proved that he was no better than a backup QB, the defense wasn't what they were in previous years, and the Saints did kind of play over their heads at the open of the season. Basically what I remember about that year was the year the window of opportunity finally closed. The Saints had a decent run for several years before that, but just couldn't get it done.

I was 21 when it was 1993 - maybe that's I why I don't remember LOL

Re: 1993?
 

No excuse. You talking about Louisiana, you should have been drinking by the time you were 15 and already a seasoned pro by 21! LOL

Re: 1993?
 

I would ask you to match the rosters from '93 with '09 and ask the same question.

thenn maybeee u have aynserrrr to urrr qwestiun.

Re: 1993?
 

93 i was 8 and knew the troubles of crown royal lol i actually dont remeber this season... i must have been all about LSU or somethin

Re: 1993?
 

I was 13 at the time but I remember from that season: getting destroyed by Pittsburgh, getting chewed out by my dad for cheering the injury to Wilson and the Saints becoming only the 3rd team in NFL history to start 5-0 and NOT make the playoffs

Re: 1993?
 

Swilling was gone. Mills got hurt. Wilson started throwing more INTs than TDs.

Bad recipe...

foreverfan says Saints fans don't live in the past http://209.85.12.234/7361/20/emo/eusa_naughty.gif

Re: 1993?
 

So True!!! What Past?

Dempsey's kick?
The Crecent City Relay and Kick Heard Around the Area?
The Aaron Brooks Pitch Play?
The Joe Horn Call?

You have to be a glutton for punishment to be a Saints Fan.

Oh yea 2002 was another very good year as we went 8-1.
Saints were rated #1 in ESPN Power Poll that week.
That was when Brooks shoulder got hurt and we lost the last 4 games.
That was Mike McCarthy's last year and the end of Brooks.

Re: 1993?
 

I was hoping that I could say Aaron Brooks, but it was Wade Wilson and our very good defense that produced well to start and then went in the tank.
