I hate to say I told you so but

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I told you so. This offseason so many of you sunshine pumpers were saying there was no way we would lose next year and would win 10 games. Y'all know who you are too. Y'all acted like Fleener was so ...

I hate to say I told you so but

I told you so.

This offseason so many of you sunshine pumpers were saying there was no way we would lose next year and would win 10 games. Y'all know who you are too. Y'all acted like Fleener was so good, Ingram just needed a line to run behind and he'll be a top five back. Give Brees a good offensive line and he'll pick apart any defense.

No this was all said on here. And further, even I knew a patch work defense could not possibly be enough to improve. But I said that the offense needed improvement. You did not believe me when I addressed concerns on the offense being important. All you can do is blame the defense. Now even our own fans here saying Atlanta's offense is better than ours and we are nothing close to 2011, contradicting all the offseason crowing about how Brees does not need this, Brees does not need that. You even defended Evans, when I hated him being brought back!

And there is no one to blame for how the defense is playing this year. No one. We did not have the cap room to do enough on defense. But we squandered away chances to win on offense to wait whatever years for the defense to be a top 15 unit.

Now I have to ask, what will the excuses be for this offseason? What will the people say this offseason?

Turnovers is what cost the Saints this season.

Today, the Lions played a much better game. Enough said.

Ingram is tops in the league with 5.3 yards per carry, not his fault Payton runs the ball 12 times a game with a multi back system.

I had my worries about this seasons team to. My prediction for this season is 5-11 with even getting lucky 6-10 if that tells you anything, and this team isn't helping me in having to eat crow, not yet anyway. A huge problem we have is depth, little to nothing at most positions. Scissors cut paper everytime.

Who are you referring to? I don't remember anyone saying all the things you're claiming.

Everyone here agreed we need O-line help, another WR, and a TE.

Oh and by the way, the Saints are the #1 total offense in the entire NFL and the #2 scoring offense in the entire NFL.

You aren't making any sense at all.
