Bc that’s the type of play that can break a franchise
The Saints under Payton have responded well after stuff like that. After the Lynch run we had 2011 which was probably the best Saints team ever. After Vernon Davis we had bountygate and had no Payton all year, but Brees held the rope and we stayed middle of the pack, and then followed it up next season with a road playoff win, falling to the Seahawks in a competitive game on the road.
Past few years we've dealt with serious cap issues (large portion of the cap being dead money), bad free agent signings and lackluster drafts. With Ireland here though we've slowly turned the corner and had our best draft maybe ever other than 2006 and have a young core of dudes to help with the cap situation and still produce like hell. It was a gut wrenching loss but the franchise as a whole is moving in the right direction again after a few year hiccup. I'm encouraged.

That's what they said about Atlanta and they were right back in the playoffs a year later. I refuse to believe the Falcons are a tougher more resilient franchise than the Saints
