It's crazy how contradicting that is.

not really, what we need to have happen is for us to win 3-5 games so it is blatantly obvious he needs to go. I am afraid 7-9 gets him back here again.

I bet SP will be successful somewhere else, but he is done here

Here is the really scary things about this year's 0-2 -

We have turned the ball over 0 times. No fumbles lost, no interceptions thrown. We also have never blown special teams coverage and given up a big return. So on the whole we are actually executing fairly well right now.

Despite all of this, it was obvious by midway through 3rd quarter in each game we were toast and out of the game, even with one of the best passers in the league.

It could real ugly real fast against a team that does force us to turn it over.

We rebuild like the way the panthers and bucs did. Get a new GM and a new idea here and hope it works. If it doesn't, then hopefully someone in the league will put the pressure on Benson(either one). Start with a younger energetic QB and become a run oriented team with money to pay for a couple of A type defensive players. If we cannot do this then someone needs to start studying some college course to be a saints GM so the suckage won't take that long.

Why should we continue 7-9 seasons? It's more depressing because we are holding back potential legends. If Brees was not on the team the losing seasons will be easier to swallow because at least we can't say we have someone on our team who deserves more wins than players on the other three teams.

One more loss and you will disappear. I don't know why I bother with you.

I haven't disappeared in 50 years, "Dude". I've been there week in week out pulling for my Saints. I know there is nothing I can do personally, or any of you either, to improve anything. I never leave my Saints.

Will, I don't know what's going on with you man, but you've been terrific and on point lately. Well said buddy!

I haven't changed from any of my view points in the offseason. It's just the offseason was so full of let's not be negative hoopla on this forum that it became hard to express concerns over stuff from last season. Once the season starts, you see everything loud and clear. But this time I'm looking at every snap and I am seeing for myself how awful everything looks.
