ROFLMAO.... I am having a strange day..

Someone go to the Chargers board and ask the same question, or rephrase it to traded to the Saints.

Brees, Sproles...

We are still trying to get MAnderson's foot out our butts.
He made us pay just about every time we played ATL after he left.
I know there was one game he beat us by himself.

Just look at Carolina's history of pro-bowlers and there you have it.

Agree with that part...

Sammy Knight shouldn't have been allowed to depart; met him on a couple of occasions and he was a terrific, generous guy...

Yeah ... Mills, Walls, Delhomme, etc ...

Much like the Falcons ... Hebert, Andersen, Horn ...

Downright amazing the number of players we've lost simply to our own division!!!

I had to look!

Atlanta Falcons

In early March 2007, Horn started negotiations with the Atlanta Falcons. He signed a 4-year, $15 million contract with Atlanta. Later, in 2008, he requested to be traded from the team saying he didn't want to be a "just-in-case guy" for the Falcons.[2] On August 19, 2008, the Falcons cut him.[3] In his only season with the Falcons he made 27 receptions for 243 yards and one touchdown in 12 games.
