I'm guilty as charged. Based on how we were playing & what I saw from the Vikes vs GB on MNF ... I thought we would crush them, especially at home.

Credit to Mike Zimmer for setting up Payton by playin' possum...

In retrospect, Zim's body language, pre-game interviews, he had something, he had subtle confidence...

We definitely need to stop the whining. Could OPI been called? Sure. And in the still photo it looks bad, but in real time, it was not as clear. But also, do you also know what you see in that photo? The defender's head is not turned back to find the ball. I guarantee that in situations where the defender is not playing the ball, the OPI is called in less than 5% of those times. We gotta just accept we got beat and move on.

I really want Brees to retire to save us cap space. We need to start building around Taysom or Bridgewater. Pref taysom.

Brees retiring would cost us cap space.

Yes.

I re watched the Vikes ...

Brees was visibly upset after that fumble, and I saw the WR he was trying to go to. Guess who? #10 Trequan Smith, running the wrong route.

Tre should have been benched this year. He's been terrible.

Tre'Quan was a reach as a draft pick and sometimes wonder if Payton forcing it wasn't to save face on a failed pick...
