a 'real' superbowl? hahahaha, Lombardi is a Lombardi yo. I watched that game and I actually pulled for you guys. Jake kept you in that game. Ashamed to see what has happened to him.

I called the Saints to win the game (go check my post history, yo).

But I just expected to see them actually stuff it down the Colts throat, and Manning to throw like nobody's business. None of that happened.

The Saints didn't stuff anything. They dinked and doinked, and gimmicked their way to the win. What went on last night was a let down as far as that's concerned (and the commercials were just horrid).

It was a boring game from the standpoint that neither team took many risks outside of Payton's 4th down goal line attempts and the onside kick (which is ironically one of the biggest risks in the history of the SB). Other than that, both explosive offenses were playing not to lose. The Colts ran the ball more times in that one game than they did all season and the Saints were content with lots of short gains in the passing game.

The Colts blinked first and the Saints won by getting themselves into a position where the Colts couldn't afford a mistake. It's not to discredit the Saints at all, they won - but I thought it was funny that both these teams played pretty conservatively overall.

From the standpoint of fans outside of the NO's fan base, it was a boring game. But to Saints fans, it was the most exciting game they've ever witnessed. I mean heck, it was the SB and they won it. If us Panthers played that exact same game, it would be the most exciting game to us. The opinion is obviously biased from the fans of the winning team. He enjoyed it, it was exciting, and heck it should have been.

      What a franchise QB looks like

      By Jmac · Posted

      Joe Burrow hasn't played for three quarters of the season and very little in the pre-season. He comes back and posts some very good numbers and leads his team to victory. That's what a #1 franchise QB should be doing, not whatever is going on here. The eye test doesn't lie. Throw out the rose colored glasses and believe what your eyes are telling you. Five more games and then a decision needs to be made on a certain players permanent status.  Do what is right for the team and fiqure out how to improve that one very critical position. Please don't fug it up this time.

      I’m all for bringing a QB in but who? The FA list is ass. The draft class isn’t great I’d take a flier on Trey Lance and if available in 4th someone like Leavitt or Mateer? I never wanted Dalton back especially at the contract Dan gave him. He’s utterly useless on the field and his cap hit isn’t nothing. He provides nothing.  There’s a lot of bad QB play this year and passing is down. Guys worth trading for are most likely not going to get traded.  As much as many of you don’t want to hear it our best option is to decline the 5th year option. Give Bryce 2026 while we have him under contract. Then in 2027 either sign Bryce (tag would be an option. Don’t repeat the Darnold mistake) or draft another QB and do it all again

      The league did Jerry Richardson dirty. But Jerry Richardson played himself. He went out of his way at every opportunity to be as subservient to the shield as humanly possible even when the league went out of it's way to make it abundantly crystal clear that they did not want to see Cam Newton be the face of the league to the point they had the refs do their bidding. If Jerry had any backbone he would have taken the gloves off with the league after SB50. But he just took it on the chin.
