Kay Adams: “Saints are still my team. Don’t sleep on them!”

You can only beat who you have on your schedule. Hell, most of the premise of this league is based on who handles their business against the teams they’re supposed to beat, while winning roughly half of the lucky coin flip games against good opponents.

You want to see your QB dominate opponents like those, which he did. The concern would have been if he looked average/subpar in those games, which he didn’t.

He came on late, and to me at least, gave us some encouraging signs heading into 2024.

And the last thing I’ll say is this…it’s a team sport.
I'm not usually in the Debbie Downer camp, but the strength of the opposition in those games has to be critically reflected upon.

If we'd handled our business against teams we were supposed to beat, we wouldn't have been 5-7 coming into that final stretch. And in those first 12 games, our offense looked, for the most part, seriously subpar.

If the late season results had been such a strong endorsement of our team improving on O down the final stretch, why did we then can most of the offensive staff in the off-season?

I'm hopeful for the immediate future, but I won't blow smoke up this team's backside where it's unwarranted either.
