Question of the week: Strive for playoffs or fold for draft

Wait, Danno do we follow the same team? You don\'t want them to have a \"quitters\" mentality? Have you been following them the last few years? What other mentality have they shown since 2000? Did you think they were winners coming into this season? Egads, are our standards so low in New Orleans now that being 8-8 or 7-9 is having a \"winners/never give up\" mentality? I shudder to think that that is true. SO losing to a winless Arizona and a winless Tampa in consecutive weeks, having the last place defense in every category in the NFL by far, and being 3 games under .500 somehow denotes there is a \"winners\" and a \"never give up\" type attitude on this team? Jesus, we really are jaded. Being 7-1 or 7-2 a few years ago and tanking to sub .500 teams in Dec. means we aren\'t quitters? Then having the same thing almost exactly happen the next year? I give up.
