Would a "worser" (sp) team (one w/o Payton and Brees) be any "worse" than a currently "bad" team (one w/Payton and Brees)? Am I missing something?

Thank you, people who keep saying that are laughable. Be careful what you wish for you might go 6-10 instead of 7-9. This team has looked horrible in 2 games this season. What about the other 48 prior to this one? Same.

spkb25

yes because 7-9 is so much better than 5-11?

Hire Lavar Ball as new defensive coordinator so our defenders will be told to stay in their lane.

Benson's an old man and the seats at the Dome keep getting filled.
Don't see him making the radical changes needed at this point. The
sad thing is the Staff knows it and they keep cashing the paychecks.
The Glory season has long been over and all that is left is clutching at
memories of a time from a long time ago.

I don't see Payton or Brees leaving, not this season anyway. However; I definitely can see DA losing his job if the defense doesn't get on track soon

I was doing some thinking this morning and I think we might have a culture that is far more toxic than the bad days of the Haslett and Ditka eras. Payton plays favorites and the accountability is uneven at best. We could have a corporate mentality where ever player is out for themselves and the bonding between our players, the trust, is only there on the surface.

We'd be better off with a new enthusiastic coach players are willing to play hard and fall on a grenade for, even if that coach isn't as accomplished as Payton.

We should also not get caught up in the offensive vs defense mindset of looking for head coaches. After all, we once hired the defensive Haslett and it ended up being mainly the offense that flourished!

When the cameras went to Bensons box late in the game, I asked the wife "who's contracted did he just terminate".

I remember reading a few weeks back 2-2 after four games will be a good start, so lets just keep the fire sale back a couple more weeks.

The losses are brutal. We would need about 3 turnovers a game at this point to pull off a win. Brees is usually good for 7W's but I don't even see that happening.

Don't cut bait. We've got new leadership throughout this team. Our new additions have all been beneficial. Whether they are coaches, players or front office. It's a new team that needs time to become a collective unit.

I believe that Payton needs to be reigned in and let Loomis be an accountant and have a real football GM.
