Been better than us since 06’. One SB is one SB. We have a big fat ZERO. 

Better team right now, yes.  Better team since Brees got there?  Yes.

Better franchise, no.

Minnesota is carving up the Saint D in the run game.  The plays are within Cousin's comfort zone.  The are playing the vikings game, not the Saints.

Yeah the saints supposed elite run D is getting gashed, and it's only gonna set up some sweet play action to Diggs and thielen. If saints can't figure out how to stop cook, they're toast this game. 

And the fact they had hill throw a deep ball that was completed and the only deep ball brees threw was intercepted is not boding well for them at all

Yeah Brees is noodle arming it all over the field. It’s possible it could be his hand, he still has that wrap around it but he’s not looked like himself.

Brady going to the Saints, and Brees to the Patriots.

They might would do better with Hill!

that dude is the definition of Slash ha. 

Do they let Brees and Bridge "over troubled" water go during the same year?  Wow. Hill is tough as a bag of nails, but I have not seen starting NFL QB---but Payton loves him

Brees looks terrible today. Straight up noodle arm. Even that pass to a wide open Thomas just barely go there and forced Thomas to make a difficult catch.

Even if they win this game it doesn't bode well at all for going to Lambeau next week.

Brees has been showing his age every year come playoff time for the past 3 years.

The Saints are going to have a very interesting decision to make in the offseason. They will owe Brees $20M at least whether or not he is on the roster. 

They obviously have a great roster overall. Do they risk paying a soon to be 42 year old who has shown decline by the end of the season?

There are going to be an almost unprecedented amount of QBs in FA this year. 

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens. Brees is going to play until no one wants him. Up until this point, he has always had the leverage with the Saints and could demand pretty much anything.

Watch the saints adjust...

The site I'm looking at says his contract is a club option next year and unless picked up, voids just prior to the 2020 League starting.  I'm not sure they pick it up and either run with Bridgewater or Hill.  If he retires, I don't think they get stuck with dead cap money.

Is it just me or does Kamara just genuinely not look interested at all in being there?

[LinvilleGorge]

The Vikings have figured out that Brees can't competently throw much more than about ten yards today.

Saints are very beatable. Panthers shoulda beat em if Slye didn’t poo the bed.

I was just about to post that Kamara has not looked the same since last year. Not sure what his deal is.

Maybe it’s because they utilize the fuging 3rd string QB more than their HB
