I'm not arguing about Robert Meachem. I'm right, I was right in 2006, and everyone knows it. Surely you aren't trying to make an argument that a couple of big games was worth a first round pick.


If we don't win that game, do we get the #1 seed that year? I'll make that draft pick every time.

Well so many other teams were beating his door down weren't they?


No one got the chance to talk to him. I don't think he was gonna be a hot commodity, but I'm sure he could have gotten a better deal elsewhere.

quote:

Come on, we all knew Nicks was the next most important to resign after Brees. Hell, we could have franchised him.


And that's the only way we could have kept him, but that would have required us to sign Brees before FA, but as everyone knows now, Brees was holding out for the big pay day. We still got a viable replacement in Grubbs.

quote:

Colston wasn't going anywhere, and even if he did, big whoop. Brees makes mediocre WRs look awesome. I've being saying for years now we don't have any real scary WRs that make defensive coordinators worry.


You're really under selling Colston. He's consistently produced year after year. I tell you one thing, teams don't like seeing Colston in the redzone.

quote:

I don't think Loomis is all that horrible. I think our defensive draft picks have been shameful, but we can't not give him credit for our offensive talent that has over acheived plus some very good FA pick ups.


Oh dear lord. Is this a typo?

quote:

I'm on the fence about firing him, but I surely wouldn't have resigned for 5 more years. If I were Benson, Loomis would be on double secret probation right now.


You need to unrustle your jimmies stat.

Pretty sure the Defense that won a Super Bowl in 2009, Mickey Loomis signed, drafted, or traded for every player on that D.

Wow.
This thread is still going.
To blame Loomis for the defense but give no credit for the offense is extremly contradictory. I've always thought Loomis was not very good to put it nicely at the start with the Saints. He perhaps had his hand in too many things. But better coach signings and working more on the numbers side has led to the golden age of the Saints.
If you want him fired who is available that you believe will bring us more rings than Loomis?
