And IF an asteroid had hit the Dome on Saturday, the game would not have been played and Drew would not be hurt.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

For years we have stoned anyone who would utter something along the lines of, "What if Drew gets injured."

We did our part...

Then Luke McCown got an endorsement and made a commercial or two.

WHAT THE F*** WAS THAT!?!?

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Maybe Payton will be a better play-caller and the defense puts in a little more effort this game (hey, Hicks & Jenkins, how y'all been?) knowing they can't rely on Drew. Maybe special teams will step up with a big play or two to help out knowing they can't rely on Drew. THIS is the mark of a good team without a reliable HOF player.

OR...they can dumpster fire Tango Uniform this game & quit on Payton with Drew sitting on the sidelines. THIS is the mark of a turrible turd-infested team.

We'll see if Sean has lost this 2015 team this week...big test.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Surely you shouldn't have Frazer on there saying "We're doomed"!

I would prefer to see LCpl Jones shouting "Don't Panic Mr McCown, Don't Panic" :-)

GEAUX SAINTS!!!!!

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Oh what a surprise. I'm certain they knew since last Sunday he would not play this week and be prepared for him to miss some future games until they finally tell us the truth about Drew.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

YES, it's been widely known on Twitter that Drew has been un-dead since 2011.
Makes his arm noodle-ey and very difficult to control.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Well Brees was hurt so there's one answer. Also, factor in TB was playing the QB who got overlooked by them the minute he lost the BCS title game, of course he was fired up and Tennessee backed him up. Titans also have creamed offenses on the road holding them to less than 15 points the last three season openers now. TB also made the mistake of not running the ball consistently as that is Tennessee's biggest weakness. I actually thought we were not sweeping the bucs again, and would lose one or both games because the first being at home(I have 3-3 division). I was not surprised to see a 0-2 start. I at one point picked a 0-2 start that would end up 4-2(it depends if we can have a better offense than Atlanta week 6). However, if we lose this game to Carolina we will win the home game. So it doesn't matter. I always think it's the matchups not running out of strength winning so many games. We can go 0-3 and still beat Dallas, Atlanta, New York, Tennessee all at home, and at Washington or Philadelphia and end up 5-5 before the bye week. And if we win our last three home games and win in Atlanta we can get to 9-7. But honestly look at Indy. They are not this feared offense, jets defense beat them in their own place. We can certainly give them a game. So it is even possible we could go 6-4 before the bye.

Am I overthinking? Maybe, but the two matchups we played are better than those games(minus Indy) due to one having weapons(yes bucs have weapons) and the other being at home and being well rounded. Giants have Odell and a crappy RBBC, Tennessee could pose a challenge if we don't run the ball, Philadelphia is learning why Bradford is a bad qb(can't spread the ball around, doesn't force it to Matthews), Washington has a bad qb, Atlanta will be on short rest and our most hated rival, and Dallas is without their two biggest players and have no stud running attack.

This is Our Chances of having a Winning Season.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Hey lee909!

After McCown's first series of plays in the first quarter, as he walks back to the sidelines, lets hope Sean Payton isn't saying "You Stupid Boy"!! :-) :-)

Hopefully he's saying "great touchdown pass Luke"! :-)

For some bizarre reason I'm actually looking forward to the game on Sunday.
Guess its because there are a lot of unknown factors being thrown into this one which will be interesting to see!

GEAUX SAINTS!! . . . . . . . WHO DAT!!

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Please tell me why anyone is excited after the way Luke looked in preseason. I mean he isn't brunell, but I'm not expecting much. Hope I'm surprised but don't expect it. Now it is very possible the rest of the team steps up

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

I think there's some relief that they finally made the announcement that Brees isn't playing. Everyone has been kind of combing the headlines waiting for news. That and very few are "expecting" to win this game and most don't expect to win at all. So its kind of a relief that there's not as much pressure because no one is giving us a chance in hell. So if we pull it off great. If not...no biggie.

Hell I remember this type of feeling back in the day when we were awful year in and year out. I never expected a win, but I was always excited to see if they could pull it off.

Basically, expectations are low and optimism is high.

Not so sure that's a feeling I wanna get used to again. I like expecting us to kick everyone's ass.

So lets get a win with Luke and get Brees back next week! Time for a win streak!!!

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

You're a weird fan. You can't stand Drew Brees. You blame every loss last year on the offense (which is insane) and it seems that you enjoy the suffering of other fans. You act like you know everything and that we as fans, and the Saints front office should be going to you with questions about this franchise.

Wow. Really annoying.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Sign Tebow, at least there would be something interesting to the season. Face facts it's Over! It was fun being the best team in the NFL for a long time just hope it doesn't take 40 years for it to come around again.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

So far from pre-season and the 2 games we have played I would be looking hard at the draft, our 2 G Lelito and Evans have been bruitilized ,I'm crossing my fingers on Lelito getting better as the season goes on but Evans better days are behind him, hopefully only1 gaurd is needed instead of 2 in the draft. RT will be needed in the draft also but I'm putting faith in Strief to go out as a warrior. Thats 2 definates on the front line that need to be drafted with the possibility of 3. 1 big body WR. late in the draft. On the D side a true NT and SS(Vacarro isn't the answer at SS). Jury(at least me) is still out on Anthony( I know most of u were sold on him, but I'm not) until he shows up consistantly. I do think he could do better in a 3-4 D but he's not the Vilmabeast and I don't see it in him. This FO has really blown alot of drafts but last seasons draft isn't to bad. If Armstead goes down or used for tradebait(I think he gets traded) Peat steps right in. C and LT are our only strenghts on the O-line, because Lelito can play C. No depth after that. What happened to Lemon?

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

I'm a Tebow fan. He wins games, nothing pretty about the way he does it. Payton would never have him though. (Bash away) I would love this guy here. Faith goes a long way. And in a Saints uniform, go figure.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Anytime someone is serious about Tebow playing QB I immediately lose any ounce of respect for their opinion about football

Halloween I just saw your post above, my post was not meant as an insult to you.

"my post was not meant as an insult to you." Like when Moe looks at Curly and says "Not you, the other idiot!"

We're going to win with a career back up just like Cleveland and Washington will!!!!

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

well, no, it isn't that at all, but what I was saying was I did not see his post when I made mine so I wasn't intentionally posting under his post to slam or attack him

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Two things:
If Luke McCown were to win a game or two while Drew is injured then you can bet the calls to replace and trade Drew would echo throughout the land.
The National pundits would be screaming for change.

Payton could put in Grayson and let him get game experience because if Drew is injured we've got to look to the future. However, Payton is too stubborn to take even a small chance of losing and having it reflect on the final schedule. Hell, Payton wouldn't even try to get a better draft spot when we played Tampa last year. So they tanked the game and got the premium draft spot.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

the reason I don't want Grayson yet is because the team isn't playing well and I wouldn't want his confidence to get crushed

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

There is only one game that I can tolorate losing in. Additional message is :censored:... :bart:

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Because we didn't see crap in the preseason and we are getting pieces back on defense to protect the offense.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

It may be because he lives in Shreveport. A sad existence. He may be more positive if he was across the river in Bossier.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

The difference is that it is just one game.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

That's because Payton wants to do whatever gives the team the best chance to win the game that week. To hell with any coach that approaches it any other way.

"You play to win the game!"

Anything else is chicken****.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

Uh, yeah, he looked like crap, yes he did.

58 percent completion % career, 9 td's and 14 int's.

Um WTF does the defense have to do with being excited about McClown at QB? Please explain your reading skills?

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

I can tell y'all this - I am starting Caroline's D today on my FF team.

Re: Brees Out versus Panthers
 

I seem to remember a Super Bowl winning team with "The Best Ever" at QB. One season "The Best Ever" couldn't play. Not to worry, the team around him was solid. They plugged in the backup, then the other backup and finally talked a retired "Star" into coming back. I live in Indy, I've seen this movie before and it doesn't end nicely.
