The season is shot. The record sits at 5 wins and 9 losses. The team is bad. The defense overall is very weak, not physical enough, not fast enough, yet there are a few signs of hope in the persons of a couple of young LB's. They seem to be out of position often and have the worst DB in the game today. The offense is not the same despite the best efforts of Drew Brees. We do have two starting RB's out but the running game never intimidates anyone. Receivers are good but no longer great. Often the offense, when it needs to be sharp is flat, like the first half last night.
The salary cap kerfuffle, the weak drafts of late and no real help in free agency points to continued bad news for at least a few years.
I'm flabbergasted at how bad they are so soon after such consistent football glory. Yet as a realest they are now bad and we have to deal with it.
Fans have to decide individually what they will do as fans. I know I tend to be critical and that's because there seems to be no sense of urgency, no plan, a reliance on having been good once. For me that's just unacceptable.
Love my Saints, hate the current product on the field.
