Why it's important to win at least two more games

I can understand people wanting better draft position and all of that but to pull for losses just improve your slot just goes against what any player or coach should ever consider.

I know a lot (probably most) of people here don't remember what it was like just to pray for the miracle of a winning season. I started watching the Saints in 67 when I was 13 and didn't see a winning season till I 32. So yeah, to the old fogies, a winning season is still a big deal.

And don't forget that two of the best we've ever had were 2nd rd. picks. (RJ and MT). And so was Drew. So yeah, keep fighting for every win you can get. Who knows, maybe we can sneak in and make some noise.

Yeah, I was born in 78, but I can still remember as a young fan the stigma of "the only team to NEVER have a winning season" and "the only team to NEVER make the playoffs." I also remember WWLTV in New Orleans' "Bless You Boys"promo commercials at the start of the season. They had a song that featured the line "Could this be the year?" By "the year" they did not mean "the year we win the Super Bowl," they just meant "the year we win more games than we lose." I will never take a winning season for granted.
