Have your expectations for the season changed?

Yes. My expectations have changed. Why? Because I, like many of us, bought into the preseason hype. "Carr is an upper tier quarterback. Michael Thomas is back. Olave, Kamara, Shaheed. Oh, and Jimmy Graham is back."

And yet the coaching staff has stayed the same with the same if not worse results. Squeaked a win over the Titans and squeaked a win over the hapless Panthers.

I originally thought that the Saints would be the South champions, they would make to the Divisional round of the playoffs, Carr would have a redemption year and so no. Now? Not so much. I see the following:

Tampa Bay – 10-6 = Wild Card Playoffs
Atlanta – 8-9 = They make the switch to Taylor Heinicke and win some games.
New Orleans – 5-12
Carolina – 4-13
