I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that SF are favorites in the game today

Drew Brees raked that team’s salary cap over the coals for years. 

It's just surprising it has been this long and they still don't have it under control. You'd think they could take their medicine for a couple of years and get it fixed, but they seem to keep trying to kick the can down the road.

 

That's one of the problems with how coaches and GMs are focused. They have no job security at all, so they have no incentive to plan for the future.

SF is still more talented, better coached, have a winning culture, etc

I've learned that when the betting odds seem obviously wrong, it's because I'm wrong

I threw a few bucks of a bonus bet on San Fran at -3. If the Saints are as bad as advertised and San Fran’s system really is built to plug and play almost anyone at QB, then it could be a long day for the Saints. Especially if McCaffrey gets going.

The Saints are tanking for some kid named Manning.

The Saints over/under wins is 5.5. I bet the under I really need the 49ers to get this one.

And he hasn't quite looked like the rest of the QBs in that family, but it is early.

The Saints GM has a ton of job security I think.

 

he’s just trying way too hard to keep a group that was really good in 2018 together

No he isn't but Arch, grandson of Archie, in New Orleans makes too much sense.

He has the genes  but he can't read defenses and his mechanics break down immediately when there is pressure.

 

He needs 20 college games minimum.

 

Next seasons draft would be better for him long term. Not this seasons.

I get NO is bad, but they're not that bad

 

New Orleans is the epitome of "Who throws it to What, What throws it to I Don't Know, I Don't Know throws it back to Tomorrow"

I think this is a multi-year tank

So the Saints will tank for two years, it's not like they're getting better anytime soon. 🤣
