    Fuck yeah dude. PM me or bigjrock your email. We will get you added and you can decide on your 3 keepers. Only real options of team you're take over is an elite QB.

    Keeper options would be Luke Falk, Darren Carrington, Ty Johnson, Kennedy McKoy?

    He had a lot of upperclassmen turnover. Good thing is there are only 3 keepers for each team so there is a ton of draftable talent to build your roster. You'll have an early pick too, I think #2 overall.

    Draft is 8/21. Thanks again

    Calling timeouts on defense with under 2 minutes in the first half is a bad idea.

    Man I had hopes after preseason (dumb I know) but our defense is terrible and our o-line is terrible

    Their problem is they only have one CB from OSU. The one from Utah was getting picked on.

    I'm at a bar watching with no sound but based on the video it seems like ESPN is intent on making AP a story in this game.

    He's the backup RB what did they expect?

    Eh it's interesting. He started the game and got a first down then just didn't really see the field for a while. Gruden has spent time talking about how he's still good but Kamara fits better what Brees likes to do and how when they need short yards he should be the guy. It's been talk about the backfield as a whole a lot while they show him

    Fair enough. I thought you were just meaning RBs. Thomas did have 5 catches, just no big plays.

    That sounds great but Payton has rotated RBs (and WRs) every other play for a decade. He definitely thinks hes the smartest man in the room - and mybe he is - what do I know.

    Hes not a starter. He had 62.786% of getting 6.289 yards based on scouting, so he got the first carry.

    I'm not disagreeing with any of that. I was referring to like a third of the time Peterson spent on TV and what the commentary was that BayouMafia couldn't hear

    Thank god we are continually handcuffing our dicks to our asshole by paying Brees and fucking up our salary cap.

    It doesn't matter who runs behind this OL this year. They are not good. So the thing that we excelled at with every combination of weapons under Brees is going to be another possible liability this year. Exciting. Special teams will win us the Super Bowl. :loldog:

    Honestly i dont really agree. If we get Armstead back (whenever that may be) and move Ramchyk to the right side i think the line is really quite solid. Not great but good enough. Vikes DLine has a lot of talent, more than we usually will face. team still sucks though

    We were paper bags bad last night.

    Brees was under duress for most of the night - however Ramczyk allowed pressures but not a sack. And he was guarding one of the best edge rushers in the league in Everson Griffen.

    I know it's the Patriots, and it's only week 2, but this is the 4th-5th straight year of our defense not just being bad, but fucking embarrassingly bad.

    Let Brees walk after this year and burn it all to the ground. And somebody poison Loomis

    Would we get rid of Sean before Loomis? Is Benson even coherent enough to make an informed hire?

    At this point might as well get rid of both, tbh. I agree with thinking Payton is gone when Brees is, Loomis is our real problem I feel like, but it's all so connected I feel like we need a full reset.

    It felt like there were 30,000 patriot fans in the dome today. not much to break down: new season, same problems. no pass rush, below average dbs, and brees getting a backdoor 350.

    I'm normally a pretty optimistic Saints fan. Through 2 games I've seen nothing to make me think this team is any good. We'll win a few games, especially once our OTs come back - but at best we'll be 7-9, 8-8 again.

    Our defense is bad. A few new faces, and it's still bad.

    The thing that infuriates me about the Peterson signing is that it was so unnecessary. Rather than spend that money on a backup RB that doesn't fit our offense we could have signed a DB to help this abortion of a backfield.

    I don't remember was the Peterson signing before or after the draft?

    If it was before I can give them a little slack... we did need a backup. Once we drafted Kamara though it was a waste of a good nickel CB's salary
