What do you want to see from the final 3 games?
 
With less than a 1% chance of making postseason, I wanted to ask what you all are looking for in the final 3 games?

Are there any specific players you are looking at or you are wanting to get some playing time from anyone in particular?

I think with Ingram hobbled, Lasco should get 10-15 touches on offense the next game and see how he does. The guy moves and catches well for a big back.

Vonn Bell played pretty well in TB game, I'd like to see him build on that and actually grab an Int, the very thing he was drafted to do. He is a very good tackler though.

I'd like to see Michael Thomas get 1000 yards and 10 TD's, the guy is a hard worker and will only get better.

I'd like to see if Brees remembers how to throw TD's instead on interceptions also lol

What are yours?

I want them to show the NFL what next season is gonna bring. With Atl being the last game of the year for us, just beat them so we can feel good till 2017 kicks off. I would like to see Roman Harper get a TD, in case this is his finale.

Rest our injured guys, give the young guys some snaps, especially Anthony, Bell, Rankins, Thomas, Lasco, and Peat, Coleman, and probably a few others I can't recall.

Bell was very impressive. I want to see more.

I'd add Tommy Lee Lewis to that list also, he's a decent returner when given the chance, he deserves more chances on offense.

Ill get jumped on for this but I want losses. It will give us a better draft spot and possibly push SP out the door.

The way we're playing you might just get that wish? Just out of curiosity at 5-11 about where would we be picking?

I will echo the "let the kids play" theme.

I wouldn't mind seeing Greyson under C to see if he is close to being ready. The way Brees has looked lately he's not playing much longer at this rate.

I think 5-11 means we draft anywhere between spots 5-10.

To pull Drew is to tank. I don't want to see us tank. But I sure would like to give the kid time on the field too. I say, lets get up by 20+ and give the kid 4th quarter mop up duty. :p

I would agree in ways but 1 quarter doesn't give the kid a chance or us to see what we got. It would be a hard decision if he came in 3 games and balled out. Brees has looked horrible and he's not a spring chicken anymore. It's a losing season, I'm for the kid playing to see what we got.

Re: What do you want to see from the final 3 games?
 
Once the Saints are mathematically eliminated I would like to see the season end for many key veterans. First would be to put Armstead, Breaux, and Robinson on IR, and deactivate Brees. Time for the kids to play and let the evaluation process for 2017 begin.

Exactly, We have no idea what Grayson can do other than preseason which isn't a great test.

Playoffs are out so play the kid, let him learn and let us evaluate the future after Brees.

Grayson is a banana peel away from getting cut.

I think coaches have accepted the fact that he isn't very good.

I agree that Grayson is probably gone after the season. It wouldn't be a bad idea to give McCown some time behind center too.

I want to see the rookies get playing time and I want to see attitude across the board.....including Sean Payton.

I admire your optimism Saintfan but what team are we going up by 20 on.
Cards Bucs Dirty Birds ?
Maybe you could include down by 20 in there just in case.

No reason to play McCown. He is like 400 and will retire before Brees. Let Brees get his stats in which may be his last 3 games in New Orleans.

I would like to see a huge picture of Greg Williams hung behind the other team's bench in full view of Sean Peyton for the final three games.

Can't draw in good veterans losing out I know that much. Need to try and win out.

Couldn't care less about the Cardinals game. They are in the same boat as we are, a wasted year. Treat this like an exhibition game. This would be the game to play lots of young unproven talent and bench Brees for a game, put a new chip on his shoulder.

But then the last two games we should start our best players and need to play spoiler. Let's at least make Bucs and Falcons earn their prospective playoff spots. We need to be somewhat reckless and YOLO and go for it on offense and see less of Morestead, go for 2-point conversions all the time. Brees has already had 3 interception games - what's the worst that can happen? I say this because frankly I'm tired of Payton's business-as-usual football.

On defense, build on what we've done, but play more physical, call more man coverage and try to let Breaux try to be a lockdown corner. Try to determine our defensive identity going forward.

If its Drews last games then we are doomed. All the rebuilding we have done will go straight out the window.

Re: What do you want to see from the final 3 games?
 
I just really absolutely do not want to see Brees get killed. The rest of it I am not too worried about, will just have the TV on in the other room while doing laundry or puttering around the house.

Yeah cause moving up a couple spots and drafting a player is going to COMPLETELY change everything next season. What's the name of the player that we can draft in the top 5 that will win all the games for us?

Ick. Selling out for draft spots is almost as bad as putting fantasy football over real football. Actually it may be worse.

Hey I feel the guy, were there any of us that were hoping for a fall off the cliff dive by Has at the end that would jettison him from the team? I have my hand raised. We are basically reliving the Haslett years at this point. I mean he was always good for 7-9 to 9-7. As well as the perennial crap start through first 4 games or crap end through 4 games. There's a lot of similarities as of late

Also off the field. Mid life kinda stuff. The passion is gone. Nothing like when they both started out.

Watching a lot of the Patriots this year. That team is nothing like other teams. Who can honestly win games with a 3rd string QB. Well they can. They have the game planning and adjustments down. They had two WR's banged up this week. No problem, they still got it done even after two Saints style turnovers.

Re: What do you want to see from the final 3 games?
 
I want to win out so play whomever gives you the best chance of winning.
Brees' replacement is still in college so no sense in benching him for a 35 year old back up or a 25 year old clipboard holder.

No one getting hurt badly and the entire coaching staff with the exception of Payton, Charmichael and Allen embrace the Latter Day Saints beliefs and go on mission for a couple of years.

It's their defense. If Payton goes and we have permission to talk to Patricia, bring in the beard!
