Tbh with the talent on both sides of the ball, we should make the playoffs.  If not, it is directly on the coaching staff.  My fear is we get stuck in coach limbo if we fire Ron

What are we in now?

It could be worse. According to this article https://www.patriots.com/news/nfl-decade-standings-how-the-league-ranks-from-2010-2018, the Panthers are ranked 14th in regular season wins between 2010 -2018.  This of course includes John Fox's 2-10 season.  I couldn't find a ranking between 2011 and 2018.  I think you could safely say we are in the top half of the league in the time Rivera has been coach.

Writing is on the wall. The NFL is going to give Brees a retirement party, just like they did for Peyton Manning.

I hope you're wrong, but inside I know you're probably right.

EDIT: we are 6-18 all-time in Atlanta.

Wins in 1997, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2013 and 2014.

I'm just really sick to damn DEATH of the Saints. I'm shocked that they're undefeated without Drew Brees.

I’ll take it, but anyone that thinks Brees is retiring after this year (even if we win a Super Bowl) isn’t paying much attention.

If anything, it might end up helping him stick around even longer. I know y’all seen him on the sidelines: like a dog standing at the end of the chain, chomping at the bit to get back out there. Missing 6-7 weeks toward the middle of the season only means his arm is going to be that much fresher going into January.

Just approaching the bar.

Lot of words for being a quarter of a way thru the season

[Hotsauce]

I hope someone tells Ron and co. this info...

tbh, not to knock anyone, but a lot of the posts in this thread analyzing the current situation say things completely generic to the NFL at this point in the season. You could literally take some of this stuff and plug it in every single season at this time of year and at most you might have to shuffle some of the team names around. We're just too early in the season to really assess anything meaningful.

4-2 sounds pretty good

[JARROD]

So if we win out at 14-2 would we still make the playoffs?

We need to be 11-5 or 10-6, depending on luck.

That home loss to the Bucs really sucked. Not all wins/losses are weighted the same. A home loss to a division opponent hurts the most.

It was huge dildos.

I would say 12-4 just to get a wild card this year. To many good teams facing really bad teams.

Saints are yet to lose a game with Bridgewater. They are doing better than expected. 

I wonder if there any idiot saints fans that don't want Brees back?
