Jake might be able to win me back...

...just a SLIGHT amount if he goes out there and does enough to keep us undefeated in the Superdome since 2003...

Yes, that is when Jake became our starting QB, and no, we haven't lost against the Saints in their house since... even the year Jake was hurt...

If we can just win this game, it could do wonders for both bringing down the Saints morale, boosting ours, and getting us back a little respect that we gave up so early in the year...

Since I started this trend last week, I will be DVRing the game, and playing catchup around halftime... I guess I've started a new superstition since we got the W last week, so I'll stick to it for now..

I'm not expecting the win, but hopefully we at least keep it respectable and maybe even pull out the W...

Point 1. Rationally speaking, no matte what happens Jake is the best QB we have on the roster at the moment.

Point 2. Jake is a gunslinger that always stands a punchers chance at winning.

Point 3. Assuming we win out and Jake is doesnt throw another interception all season he is still an average QB at best. and he is 34 or so years old

Point being, I like Jake, and I might have confidence in jake this year but Jake has a shelf life as a QB. I love the personality of the team in terms of Jake, Smitty and all the other guys. They seem to have a very good comraderie that is probably among the best in the NFL. But in the end the team needs to do what is best for the team. Unfortunately there will be some turnover coming that will impact that core.

I think that Arizona game did a lot for Jake, whether he will admit it now or not. That's aside from the injury, of course. He was 7 for 11 before he got hurt, which is pretty darn good. I don't count the passes he threw after that, because if was obvious that he couldn't physically throw the ball after that. Honeslty, I'm still more worried about the pass protection right now than Jake. He can't keep taking those kind of hits and survive the season.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
