lot of good memories. Nothing will surpass Porter running free and me jumping up and down in my living room screaming we just won the F-ing SB. Really was an amazing feeling.

Now, cant stand the players or the coach. I enjoy qhen they lose and watching the latest SP collapse is hilarious. You can literally bet your house on the Saints looking the best team in the NFL until the last few weeks in the season when the collapse begins and they limp, yet again, into the playoffs only to lose early.

But I'm fairly certain this will be my last season posting here

Yeah. I still love the Saints. Just not a huge fan of how stupid things got prior to the season. I lost a lot of respect for Drew and for Sean prior to the season. So I get it. Saints are definitely not my priority like they used to be.

But I watch occasionally. Mostly watch the stats on a stat tracker.

I understand how you lost your love for NFL. Its definitely not like it used to be. I miss the good ol days of watching football, not politics and grandstanding. It just takes more booze to enjoy now. Which is sad.

Oh well. It is what it is. I definitely don't buy NFL gear anymore. Or wear it. Lol.

Failure to call on the run was the biggest issue, again...

We only had as many run plays as we had as Drew checked out of the pass on at least three occasions according to Romo, who's the only legit NFL commentator today...

We were only really down one WR today, albeit the formerly, briefly, best WR in the NFL...

But where was Jared Cook? What was his issue with Brees? Where was Adam Trautman, whom we sunk all of our Day 3 picks in to acquire?

Why is Emmanuel Sanders still being underused? Is he still having problem adapting to Payton's offense? If so, that's on Sean...

Most of Brees' throws lacked zip - Keep hearing the myth that he dispelled critics with his bomb to Sanders, who once again had to slow down, come back to the ball, not hitting him in stride...

Don't think Brees has hit a WR in full stride in four seasons now; don't care if Brees can only throw the ball 30 air yards - hit the man in f*cking stride so he can score...

If the Saints don't find a way to re-sign an entering-his-prime DE Trey Hendrickson, then I really doubt the motivations and machinations of the Saints personnel decision-makers...

Cam Jordan has played like hot garbage all season; age has likely caught up with this former great as well; he should have been schooling yet another backup; instead frustration and a costly dumb*ss penalty...

If the rookie punter we redshirted is the goods, then it's time to move on from Morstead, who clearly is no longer elite with short, shallow punts compared to his former excellence...

And what's going on with Ty Montgomery? A healthy scratch? He was supposed to be lagniappe depth, and utility role player with great experience - another ghost?

Speaking of ghost, biggest FA disappointment on the offense is a toss-up between Jared Cook and Latavius Murray, but in Murray's case, he's underutilized and that's on Sean...

But Cook just looked like someone that had no confidence in Brees getting him the ball and acted like a pouty b*tch in front of a national audience with Brees trying to re-establish rapore...

Can't help but wonder that Brees has lost the confidence from this teammates and in himself; at the very least, there's a clear disconnect; Taysom looked like he inspired teammates more than Brees...

Injuries are an excuse, a BS excuse; this roster is deep enough to compete and what they did was self-destructed on several plays today and played to the opponents' strengths and away from their own, yet again...

And it starts with Sean and Drew looking in the mirror and asking the hard questions that Greg Bensel won't allowed to be asked in the press conferences...

How many ****ing years has it been now. These crucial games we miss key plays that would win us the game. That's our Saints, That's what we do, and have always done. Who Dat Superbowl 2020.

ENTERTAINMENT: an event, performance, or activity designed to entertain others.
"a theatrical entertainment

"ISN'T THEATRICAL ENTERTAINMENT SCRIPTED"?

YOU KEEP FORGETTING "The NFL is one thing and one thing only ... entertainment. No more, no less. Letting it become any more than that is missing the boat."

WINS AND LOSSES DON'T MATTER. ALL THAT MATTERS IS YOUR SENSE OF ENTERTAINMENT. DON'T LIKE THEATER, DON'T GO.

THE INFAMOUS "NO CALL" IN THE NFCCG PROVED IT TO ME. THE NFL KNOWS WHO THEY WANT IN THE SUPER BOWL AND KNOWS HOW TO GET THEM THERE.

SAINTS STUMBLE INTO THE PLAYOFFS AS A WILD CARD AND GET KNOCKED OFF. AGAIN, BREES RETIRES.

Don't see it that way.

Brees shook off the rust in the 2nd half. He's not gonna have a letdown against the Vikes.

Enjoy your Christmas 🎄.

Brees was out for a month, not easy getting back in game action mode. But as you say the rust was shaking off in the 2nd half.
Not to mention he's looking at a field of Receivers he probably doesn't even recognize.
With MT out it could get challenging but I would call up Kenny Stills he knows our system.

Stills pissed off Payton so how. That's how he got shipped out. And honestly, we already have Malcolm Jenkins on the team and you saw the distraction he caused immediately upon arrival. I think Stills is the same way, which is why he doesn't have a job right now. His production isn't enough to have the distraction.

This team is in desperate need of leadership. not distractions and grandstanding.

Just my opinion.
