... now that's just f'ing funny right there,

... it's good to consider all possibilities and poydras IS the Team Doctor, but this is a 10-win team ... it may not be pretty, there'll be bumps in the road and you may lose a few fans from heart attack along the way, but when all's-said-and-done, there gonna' be at least 10 in the win-column ... bet.

Just you put on your shades young lady - the future is bright and the sun rises on Sunday. Don't make me have to get all "choupique" up in here before we even play our first game.

Nobody likes me when I'm angry...

@poydras: Please stop being a nattering nabob of negativity.

DISPLACEDFAN · 09-04-2013, 10:29 AM

some constructive criticism is always a good thing it may not be what you wanna hear but some times but a necessary thing and its also naïve of us to think our team is unstoppable and everything is hunky dory

Constructive criticism is fine if its based on realism. His was not.

No one seriously thinks were unstoppable and everything is honky dory. There isn't a team in the league that's unstoppable.

Sweet baby Jesus, Batman! Wtf is really going on here. Are there people so asinined to think that the preseason scheme (or lack thereof) is indicative of the regular season scheme? Give me a break. The only things you should watch for during the preseason are individual merits (mostly). We don't start scheming for teams (fitting our pieces most appropriately around defending our opponent) until the regular season! What is not understood about this?! We had far and away more bright spots on an individual basis during the preseason than negatives. Our D line is rock solid. ILBs will be ok. We have promise at safety and plenty of competition at CB. If our OLBs just stay healthy we'll be ok. Give it a rest. Positive thoughts breed positive things. Get your sh!t together, fellas.

Has poydras been talking to the NFL analysts or something.. snap out of it man. If the boat is sinking don't be the person panicking be the person with the band playing till the ship sinks Lol.

Sean knows what he's doing (hes probably got something up his sleeve) and watch everyone be like I knew we was gonna make the playoffs later in the season.
