  1. If he means the nice guy without an arm couldn’t make all the throws - then it was relatively predictable even if some of the details were uniquely interesting
  2. Im not even a huge Thompson fan but at least there’s some sense of awareness shining through. Comparatively, 9 weeks ago we cut a vet starting WR the day after guaranteeing his salary to sign a DT that wouldn’t play. Sooooooo seems there’s a chance that a light came on and maybe we actually get a somewhat reasonable strategy from here. It was worrisome for awhile there.
  3. Its not rocket science. We started a qb with like 5 minutes of practice time. I believe it means they realize they’ve messed up the position and have come around to the “let’s at least throw things against the wall til SOMETHING sticks” approach
  4. Are the bills that thin on decent human beings? Peterman seems fine enough, but what about his personality is exceptional enough to warrant all the gushing. Did I miss something?
  5. Would you say it’s logical to build the defense, select a qb and then wait a year to surround him with talent?
  6. Given our cap space I’d consider it unlikely. We will be signing some volume.
  7. You say you are aware it’s only been one week... but are you?
  8. Well, when we cut a guy creating large dead money - and replace him with a high priced guy that’s debatably better.... we’ve created a situation where there’s not as much money to spend on offense. Would you rather dareus and a high end offensive lineman or wr, OR just star?
  9. No I meant last year, as the discussion was San Diego. When we passed on Watson and mahomes to pair with Tyrod. This has definitely been a two year problem.
  10. Well, to go into the season with a questionable vet that you aren’t committed to and a 5th round rookie after passing on two premier prospects is kind of asking for a bad situation
  11. Including both waives and cuts definitely makes it look like he bounced more.
  12. Theres a whole lot of “omg he’s a nice guy how could you say that about him” that you very rarely see. Even more rarely in bad players
  13. Its just an odd dynamic given the fact that dozens and dozens of guys get cut every year but very few get the white knighting peterman has. I don’t wish any of them ill but he’s been incredibly compensated for a job he wasn’t good at. I’m fine chalking some of that up as “payment to stay off Twitter and message boards”
  14. This doesn’t reflect on the player or either gm
  15. Ill maintain that you don’t trade for a guy with guaranteed dollars and known attitude issues unless you have a plan that includes giving him some extra leash while you get him on board. Zero strikes is not a great policy in the situation we created
  16. Kevin, I think you should come to the tailgate and make the rounds
  17. See, with young QBs id point to the other teams. Especially if saints get the top seed. That could quickly change with an injury to kamara, Thomas, Jordan or lattimore though
  18. In many cases too much air is a product of not enough arm to zip it in
  19. He completed 15 passes. It surely can be ignored in looking at his potential based on his overall career
  20. It’s true, I think Barkley will consistently nail deep balls and Foster is a reliable pass catcher now
  21. Yea we might’ve just taken the qb in the draft instead ??
  22. I think the rosters are at least similar quality - maybe saints a little better but not substantial That said I’ll take the vet qb down the stretch. He’s been there before and been EXCELLENT in the playoffs. If at home (especially with the tie breaker) - they’ve got to be the favorite.
  23. You really think he’s suddenly a different player a month later?
