If your happy with a team that just has a winning record. then fine, but we have more to work with now talent wise than we have in years. It's time to hold them to a standard.I think some people need to be held accountable if it happens again.
A few people here, and they are all the same few that gripe about everything and are always negative, have called for a change. Don't project your feelings upon the vast majority of Saints fans around here.

What's so negative about the question.
What is so negative about the question? What isn't? Calling for heads to roll seems pretty negative. Thinking that "everyone will riot if we have another 7-9" is pretty negative. Implying that 9-7 isn't good enough is pretty negative when the season hasn't even started. Thinking that Brees will not stick around under a certain scenario is pretty negative. The whole ranting nature of the post was negative.

It has obviously become such second nature on your part that you don't even notice. You are sounding like the reincarnation of Will(insert team name here)81. The opening post was identical to something he would have posted.

For me it's playoffs. That could change depending on how tough the division and conference is but barring an 11-5 record and still missing the playoffs I'll be ready for big change. I don't think Brees will stick around if it not at the very least a week 16 determination.
Starting out with a win from the get go could very well be a determining factor. 4 0-4 starts will start ****ing with their heads.
1 more month till camp. 1 more.

Dude last year over half this board was talking about firing Payton if we went 7-9 this year. A lot of those myself not included, wanted him gone then. Just because you are the eternal optimist doesn't mean you have to hate on people who are realistic.
You are a polae opposite of Willsaintswhatever. You have your ideas and if anyone else has one you don't agree with you act as their points aren't valid.
Just because we don't all think Brees will play 5 more years like you do doesn't mean we don't hope he will.

Dude, last year a handful of people around here were talking about firing Payton. Pretty much the same few that are always griping about things anyway. First of all, there was no chance of Payton being fired in the first place which showed how little those people knew. Secondly, whether the record reflected it or not, for the past two years the franchise has been heading in the right direction. Any change at the top would thrown all of that to the wind.

Being negative and always looking at worst case scenarios is not being realistic.
