Man, this going to kill our standings in the ESPN and CBS power rankings...

What a typical response to saying something outright retarded, "I've watched too much football in my life" cool story, bro

jeanpierre · 11-03-2013, 03:27 PM

Stills is definitely a keeper, Colston under contract, but can't seem to get healthy; Moore will be re-signed; Meachem, former first rounder, looks fine as a no. 5, but we still need to find another tall wide receiver with good hands...

jeanpierre · 11-03-2013, 03:29 PM

All we're missing is some over consumption of alcohol and close proximity in a Superdome parking garage and the NOPD would have a report to file right now...

jeanpierre · 11-03-2013, 03:30 PM

Wait, wait, Geno Smith is going to speak...

Can I get an interpreter?!?

Barry from MS · 11-03-2013, 03:30 PM

Wait, we've already got folks saying the season is tanked? Dang. It's pretty bad that we're sitting 6-2.

However, if we continue to run TE reverses on 4th and short it may just be a long season.

Chin up, we simply got beat on both sides of the ball by an up-and-down team on the road. I've also watched a lot of football in my life, and if were a Haslett-AB "led" team, I'd consider this year surely tanked.

I have too say if Drew wants another ring he is going to have to drop some of that big salary or he is going to spend more and more time looking at the sky.
We are ging to be close to the cap again and will loose more players if he doesnt.Cash or a shot at a ring.

Id be tempted to be agressive and just go all out in the draft for a Tackle to anchor one end.

Next year Brees,Grubbs and Evans eat up $38.5ml of the cap between them

Grubbs won't be on this team if he keeps getting tossed like a kid...

Evans will still be here, but he does need to rededicate himself...

Yes, Drew is on the decline, that is a reality of age and his past injury...

But Brees in decline is still better than anything we have on the roster or that is available in free agency...

But, no, Brees is not worth 20mil/year - only Payton Manning has played that way this year...

And an honest conversation needs to be had with Drew about a reduction of his salary cap hit and the future of acquiring players to continue success for the franchise...

I dont see anyone trading for Grubbs and his $9.1ml salary,we cant cut him with it costing $9ml in dead money in 2014 and even $6ml in 2015.

I know Loomis is good with the cap but he has been pushing the salaries back and back for the past few years and its now going to bite him in the backside if he doesnt sort things out.I get that the idea seems to be stay competitive while Brees is still here but at some point somethings got to give.
Its either sticking with it and hoping that we draft well enough to fill holes and hope players take pay cuts or dare i say it get ready to start moving players on and building from stratch with additional picks and vastly reducing the cap

So is there a Lesson to be learned from the Grubbs signing?!?

	"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!
