In 1967 the Saints went 5-1 in preseason and then went on to win about 2 or 3 games in the regular season. Preseason is what it is...the season that doesn't count before they actually start the season that does count.
We as tax paying citizens are being bilked for millions and millions of dollars every year to watch something that doesn't really count for anything except assist coaches make up their mind about their upcoming roster...which I believe any coach could do in practice. Get rid of the preseason games and make them all count!! Everyone would be on the same playing field. Did I mention that I detest preseason. |
Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!

Thought we looked like we needed more practice. Good thing there is about another month to go. Glad to see Drew and company stay on the field until they got it right.
With all of that- I wouldn't read anything into it |

not me, LB. I LOVE preseason! As long as nobody gets hurt, you cant lose! I think you need practice games/ live action to properly evaluate talent. There's always some new hot-shot that lights everything up and gets us all excited, and they all put on their shiny helmets and play what looks exactly like football. If you win, great. If you dont, who cares. Woo!

I got to shake his hand and said thank you for not leaving New Orleans.
