Read all the headlines you want.

The Saints are in a good position. Better than advertised.

We will sign 2-3 key free agents AND draft well this year.

When it comes to cap relief,Over the Cap shows that 2016 will be a good year for us. It's like that year is a release valve for all the backloaded contracts.I wonder if Loomis purposely planned it that way?

Everyone thought the same thing last year. Don't you guys remember the falcon fan forums going crazy when we signed the number 1 FA out there.

This year we might land 2 big time FAs along with some solid role players.

Think about it.

Aside from 2012 (no head coach) and 2014 (no clue), this team has made the playoffs 5 of 7 years.

2010 - Lost wild card by 5 points (away)
2011 - Lost divisional by 4 points (away)
2012 - No HC
2013 - Lost divisional by 8 points (away)

2014 was a kick in the nuts to a coach who had admittedly become somewhat complacent.

People were fired. Reinforcements were hired.

Is there anyone you fear more than a rejuvenated Sean Payton?

IMO sitting out 2012 took away his fire and his balls, he looked passive at time with those readers on. I couldn't tell if that was Sean or my grandpa on the sidelines at times

Figure out Ingram's market value. Other teams will bid, hopefully we can match. If not there's plenty of RBs in the draft.

Fix the O line. Need a Guard, need a Center.

Fix the D line. Need a run-stuffer and depth.

Fix the LBs. Need youth and athleticism. Inside and outside.

Fix the secondary. Need a true #2 CB. NOW.


We could go into training camp with some very interesting pieces.

Give Brees another 2 seconds.
Limit the run.
Limit the deep plays.
Tackle well.
Create a few more turnovers.


I'm digging 2015 already....

AMEN! Knew You'd Come Around And Now You've Seen The Promised Land my Brother!!!

I've been calling for several things over the years:
Speedy edge rusher
Sideline to sideline LB
O line help

I put a post on a thread a few weeks back. This is not the year to pay any money on a RB. Including 5/6 top picks in the draft there are around 20 above average/good RBs on the market.
