I say yes. Cleveland and Cincy would be in the running, as well as Phx.

Currently, we are in worse shape IMO.

Dumb fricking take.

There are four NFL teams that have never even made it to the Super Bowl, and 12 that have never won it.

As far as pro sports goes, we’ve witnessed the ultimate glory you ungrateful bastard.

I’d say the opp has a point if we are talking currently

The Pels have never been a serious team for a variety of reasons. They are currently 12-40 in year 6 of their rebuild.

The Saints haven’t been a serious team since Payton left

We had a chance to tank and get a decent QB in here the last few years (CJ Stroud, Jayden, even Ward and Shedeur this year), but we always try like hell to win meaningless games at the end of the season and it results in mid 1st rd draft choices that Mickey Loomis & Co have no clue how to utilize.

Yeah if we’re talking current we’re bottom 2-3 easily. Historically we’re a bit better than that due to the prime Brees/payton run

Not at all. We have some bitch arse Karen level fans dont show yourself to be one.

The Pelicans are Louisiana branded, and we had AD, other superstars and some playoff success. If you recall, we are lucky to even have an NBA team.

There are 6 franchises that have never been to the finals and 10 that have never won it.

To say NOLA is the worst is purely beta crybaby bullshite.

Recency bias would say yes, but we’re probably not close. You look at cities like Cleveland, Carolina/charlotte, Cincinnati, New York jets then you realize we’re probably not. Just think we’re at rock bottom with both organizations right now. But in reality they’ve both had recent success. Also, the nba is such a shite product and bit markers dominate.

I'd argue quite a bit better.

Saints rank 21st historically (winning percentage). The first two decades, they probably ranked dead last.

The mid 1980s and 1990s they were much better.

Since 2000, they rank 9th in total wins and should have been to a second Super Bowl but for the blown interference call in the NFC championship game against the Rams.

Saints record 2000-2024

I get sports is what have you done for me lately, but both the Saints and Pelicans have been playoff teams very recently. This is a stupid take unless you mean “this year”.

Stars are currently the #2 seed in the West and Rangers will make the playoffs if they can stay healthy

New Orleans is currently near the bottom when it comes to current teams/future outlook

Hardly, we have the least qualified owner in the worst business/population market in the NFL.

Sell the teams.

How old are you?

Did you even witness the Saints prior to the Benson years?

Bensuck and Loony. Plus Roger Badell hating our guts. We will either always fail or have tainted success.

So fans of every team that won the ultimate glory forfeit the right to post meaningful concerns about inept leadership in perpetuity?

If that’s the case just keep Allen. You’re a fan who is happy NOLA is in the club and you get to see a few seconds of a fleur de lis every show as a result.

There’s no chance of ever reliving the glory, which many say is tainted or illegitimate due to bountygate. The support cannot be blind or unconditional. We’re at that place where you need to question your fandom and the remedy.

You just might surprise yourself and conclude it’s time to sell the team.

Currently, yes. Not historically.
