Who said I was delusional for thinking the Vikings could win?

You know who you are.
They were better prepared while we were out played and out coached.
Wish they would have relied more on Hill as a receiver this year . May have changed the seeding . Never know.
Hell of a season though. We overcame a lot of adversity but had our share of injuries towards the end.
Going to be an interesting offseason. Hill or Bridgewater, coach poaching, contracts, and the inevitable “Payton is going to Dallas” rumors.
Only 7 more months to camp.

We were robbed. Nothing else mattered.

They beat us, fair and square. Refs didnt force Brees to throw into double coverage or fumble the ball.

Refs didnt make Lutz miss a FG.

Refs didnt put Patrick Robinson on Thielen in OT.

Offense slept for 3 quarters, much like the 2017 Vikings game.

This ain't the Saints team of old, including this game, its 3 losses at home this year.

Your spot on. This aint' the Saints of old, we finally have a D(when their heads not in their a$$) but nowhere near the quick strike O we use to have. I've said it a thousand times we need a sledge hammer type of back to wear down D's. Viking today looked fresh all the way through because we didn't run (Murry) enough.

It wasn’t fair and square when the ref who called the td miss the pass interference right in front of him. Yet we should’ve never been in that situation if Bridgewater or Hill would’ve started

Not me. I was a nervous wreck reading these posts about the weather in green Bay next week. That had my gut rolling. Typical Payton/Saints trap game.
