M Jenkins and Michael Thomas killed the Saints

If he was a better leader he would have read the room and knew how his teammates would react to what he said. It’s always better to cut ties too early instead of too late. Let’s see what Winston can do. If he’s trash we can tank for Lawrence/Fields/Lance.

I’ve been on record for saying many times now, my personality is to pull the band-aid off quickly, get it over with and let the healing begin.

That being said, it’s not my job to make that decision, either on retiring or on moving forward with a new QB. I truly do see both sides. I deal with what I have. And right now, it’s executive leadership that is tied to an aging QB, and players that have (self proclamed) moved beyond the comments and are in a “better” place because of it. Rez, I’m not a fly on the wall in that locker-room, lol.

Bottom line, there is a finite time to win Superbowls..., but that’s for Everybody. AK#41 and MT#12 also, they have a shorter period of time than the QB. But coaching and management is currently telling me that the best QB is on the field now. My eyes tell me if that’s the best, lol, then the we’re in trouble!

The “all in” for DB#9’s final years seems very selfish to me. Let’s begin a new, younger, stronger, faster push for multiple SB’s over the next decade, right?
