For the Sky is falling crowd
 
The franchise was founded on November 1, 1966

In 1987 the first-ever winning season. The saints finished 12–3

That's 20 years of sub .500 ball.

20 years of ball so much uglier than anything we have seen under SP.

Trust me it can get worse really quick and you can get stuck in the mud for a very long time.

Look for the silver lining no matter how hard it is to see.

Bring on the Bucs and lets start messing within our Division.

But we didn't have Brees then. And we were not a expansion team. since that point, we have only had one dry spell before Benson took over. But our season is how it is because of our poor personnel decisions. That can't be said for the past.

Nothing like a little perspective...

Now, the team really has blown it with some obviously terrible personnel moves (and non-moves) the past three years...

But, I think the team is trending upward, even though they took a big step back today...

So because we sucked in the past we should be content sucking only a little now? Lol...

This team has too much talent to suck this much for this long.

We have too much talent to be this bad, the coaches are bringing the team down and changes are needed.

what is upsetting is that we played the rams like it was our super bowl and came out this week and laid an egg. was worried about that this week, upsetting. SP is not able to keep this team from making mistakes that cost us games week in and week out.

There is a lot of talent on this team

turnovers, untimely potentialities will make any team look bad no matter how good.

What stands out the most is youth. Youth was on full display out there. Not on the same page, out of position, the list goes on and on.

Does Drew, SP and the coaching have some of the blame to shoulder? sure

Overall it was an epic melt down against a Lions team that is hot and on a roll. Not a floundering Rams team

Next week is gut check time. that is the real test of what the team as a whole is made of.

10-6 is now 9-7

A lot BS penalties. That PI call on Delvin 3rd and ten before halftime made me change the channel and say I'm done for about ten seconds . Our offense just looked terrible so I'm not putting it all on refs but that Invisible PI hurt big time.

Changes are needed. This team is headed no where and fast.
