I'm done for the year - tore my give a **** today.

Strike 1: this commissioner and league is destroying itself while demanding more and more out of its fans. BS rules, pushing for international games, and always greedy and wanting more.

Strike 2: player protests. Multimillionaires screaming about racial and social injustice when they are part of the top 1%. Save it for someone who wants to interrupt their leisure time with politics. Out of touch and not helping their cause with their ill timed actions.

Strike 3: this team. Tired of watching a HOF QB with as much talent as Brady play opposite a bunch of defensive players who apparently never got out of their national anthem kneel. I'm 50 and have been watching Saints football since I was a small child and I've seen a version of 1 side of the football is good play for too long now. I'm done.

I'll still hope in the end the Saints somehow win it all (someone has to) but I know after today they will find a way to screw it up. This team can not handle success or expectations, and that lies with coaching...

Good luck to all who decide to go down with the ship - hope you enjoy each good play you see and can stomach the bad plays enough to not go crazy!

The D believed all the BS press releases about how great they were supposed to be. Apparently, no one told TB.

Crawley or however you spell his name.....SUCKS as bad or worse than that other Suckass....Vaccaro

saintfan · 09-09-2018, 03:43 PM

As for me I'll be back again, streaming illegally of course, for more punishment next week.

blackangold · 09-09-2018, 03:55 PM

Don’t blame you... think I’ll take a break from this team myself depending on next week. I’m willing to accept that we were asleep for this game but if the same type of performance occurs next week I’ll call it a season. Not willing to be pissed off every Sunday this year.

ChrisXVI · 09-09-2018, 03:57 PM

I’m pretty close myself.

Turnover by newly signed rb. Most of us (I think) would have rather seen Boston Scott. Refs robbed M Thomas of a touchdown. Defense drank the cool aid. Expected they would get back to normal after half. That’s on coaching. Offense looking great. I believe this will be the last time we see football like that this year.

I don't blame 'em for trying, but jeesh it just seems to me - a non-NFL-personnel guy - that they over-thought this whole running back mess. Put Scott on the dang team. He played well.

Instead we bring in a guy who hasn't taken a snap with us and, bless his heart he fumbles. We sign a guy to play LBer and don't play him in position. Have mercy.

It's football, not rocket science.

I also figured we would make halftime adjustments but instead we kept on sucking. I gave up early on and played some fortnite.

Next week is another week, and we'll be pissed I'm sure. Let's see if they come out and right some wrongs or if we're truly as bad as we were today. Hey, I've got nothing better to do. I suck at fortnite.

WillSaints81 · 09-09-2018, 04:07 PM

It's week 1. And this bucs offense is loaded. Defense needs to adjust though.
