Not a single ball travelled more than 20 yards in air. 

We run a very similar system. Remember that.

 

On the flip side, how in the hell we sat back and let this happen I’ll never know. Everyone and their dog knew what the Saints were going to do especially with Thomas and Sanders out. Everyone except Phil Snow I guess

Yes, but Carolina is a mid-teir defense at absolute best. The comment is that you won't beat top-tier defenses in this way, as perhaps evidenced last week vs Chicago.

Meanwile Nick Foles and JimmyG keep getting away with checkdowns and the occasional shots.

Maybe its because they both have good defenses Idk.

Anyway op our problem today is our LBs are bad in zone (check how often Shaq waits til the ball is about to be thrown to break) and then the players underneath miss tackles.

And Brees too for that matter, though he's several levels better than them and the offensive scheme is as well.

Look at how far it's taken the Saints in the past decade though.

Yep I can’t remember which 3rd down conversion it was (there was too many) that Kamara was running a crossing route and Shaq sat wait back for absolutely no reason resulting in a 1st down. Brutal

    • I saw that too--and what you said made sense because there is something like that in the rules--said that he is unlikely to get picked up (and I was not suggesting that we do) and Jones wants to go to a winning team.   After getting beaten to death in NY behind a sub par OL, poor WRs, and brutal fan base, I get it. 
    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I’ll admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.
