Shows you how quickly things can change when you get the right people in place who are hungry.

Saints biggest problem right now is complacency and lack of urgency.

They’ve also killed the draft and have a shite ton of young talent…

Assuming they win it all.

The difference is DA is a habitual underperformer as a HC. He is similar to Josh McDaniels in that leadership is not something he is built for.

Shanahan is on the verge of being the biggest choker since Dan reeves and Marv levy

Their cap situation and ours are completely different universes. They are under the cap. We are 70 million over. They’ve drafted extremely well and made great trades and free agent signings.

Totally different situations.

It'll change quickly. With success comes money problems. Not saying they'll be in saints' deep, but they will have to pay guys to stay at a high level

I would cut off 3 of my toes to have him as our HC. With that said, his offense failing to score in Super Bowl in 2nd half for Atlanta and his continued coming up short in SF is fair criticism. Being compared to Dan reeves and levy isn't an insult

Drafted well with their high picks.

That Goff trade was a blessing 8n disguise.

Detroit is. It saddled with:
1. A bottom 5 head coach
2. A retard front office
3. A salary cap situation from hell

Unfortunately, the Saints have all of the above. No quick fix in New Orleans and no fix at all until Loomis is gone, which probably will require an ownership change.

In todays NFL you win with great players on early contracts.

The Chiefs are the exception

Houston went from the worst team in football last year to winning a playoff game the next year with a rookie QB, rookie head coach, and a rookie defense player. Unlike the loser Saints, Houston and Detroit know what they're doing.

When you pass on players that start on defense and pick guys that can’t even get activated on game days….
