Re: If we Win out! (a voice of reason)
We need to forget about this season. Its nice to be optimistic, but reality has to set in eventually. We are not going to the playoffs. The better we do these last few weeks, the worst of a 1st round pick we will have. I'm fine if we lose out, if it means getting a good pick in the 1st round. However we should NOT bench our starters. Let them play out.

Re: If we Win out! (a voice of reason)
I think we will win out we're done playing contenders and Dallas is in a dome and we hate the cowboys especially after the stuff their media stirred up.

Re: If we Win out! (a voice of reason)
I hope that everybody is wrong and it is not because Payton is not there.
I suspect it is because of other reasons...however, if it is because of Payton we may be in a world of poop, because I don't think he will ever be back. I hope I am wrong. No...I actually hope I am right because I don't think it is Payton. |

If it is not Sean Payton, would you care to enlighten us on the list of things that in your opinion need to happen to start rebuilding. Why do you think he will not be back? |

I also feel that he is a guy that needs a challenge and NO is no longer that. He can say, "Been there, done that." As far as rebuilding...I'm not sure there is enough money to go around now, but we need big, strong, mean guys on the line on both sides of the ball. People blame Payton not being on the sideline but I am having a hard time buying into that. If they had abandoned all of his schemes, etc., and had not learned one thing from him while he was on the sideline, maybe I could buy into it...but I think bountygate and Drewgate went a lot further towards what happened this year then Payton not being there during the games. The only blame I can point towards Payton is that he knew about bountygate and did nothing...and now he is not here...but I would say the scandal itself caused more anguish on the players than his absence on the sideline come gameday. |
Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!

If crime rate were an issue there are a hand full or teams that would never have a coach. There are more than one anomalies this season that points directly to poor coaching. |

Re: If we Win out! (a voice of reason)
I played through JC...how about you?
It is because I played that I make my statement. The coaches prepared us with plays and schemes...but come gameday I never much cared whether he was over there or not. My head coach never had much influence on me as I was much closer to the position coach who coached me on a daily basis. He was the guy that would come up behind me during practice and whisper in my ear...not the head coach. All he ever did was stand over there and holler "fiddlesticks!" when things didn't go well. |
Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!

I am not saying that nobody will come to NO because there is a crime rate, I am just saying that if given a decision between NO and another city...even after we have won...considering what Katrina did, it would be a difficult decision for a guy with a family to pick NO. |

Re: If we Win out! (a voice of reason)
It's the Panthers, Bucs, and worse of all, the Cowboys. 8-8 sounds like a great way to finish the season.
