Playoffs or bust?

The Dude · 06-15-2017, 10:56 PM

At what point are you going to call for heads to roll? I know pretty much everyone here will riot if we have another 7-9 season but what about 9-7? What is not good enough?
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.

What is your problem?

I am beginning to see where Guido is coming from. The eff'n negative nellies around here..good grief man. Can't we just get the season started before we start worrying about heads rolling?

Playoffs or bust? Can we all agree on at least a decent pre-game show?

The Dude · 06-16-2017, 12:44 AM

Wtf are you talking about? It's a legit question. Several people here said they would want change if there wasn't a significant improvement. We have the talent to make a run but if you have four years of mediocracy something will need to change.

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.

Guido only looks for the negative in people's posts.

What's so negative about the question.

I didn't read it as negative. Although the topic itself can probably turn negative. I'm an optimist and I'm loyal. So even if we had a terrible season, I'd still have faith in the coaching staff to try to turn it around for one more season.

But truth is, I think this season we'll see a lot of improvement.

win the south and the rest will sort itself out.

I am sorry but this is a legit question considering our record the last 3 seasons. I don't see it as negative. He is on a Saints forum asking Saints fan what their expectation is and what they think will happen if we fail to make the playoffs again.

That's my expectation, yes. Playoffs or get out. Ever think Drew is thinking the same?
