SR has been an amazing forum for Saints fans for many years, but I’m just going to be honest. Once Winston was signed and Drew retired of course there was a battle for the QB position which in all honesty Winston won between him and Hill. However, after that or during that there became some real division on this board. To this day the board has not resembled its former self. It’s still one of the best places out of all NFL teams, but it’s littered with division, hateful stuff, despicable stuff, etc. There’s still massive divisive stuff taking place because Winston isn’t the starter or because we went with Carr who hasn’t lived up to the billing. Winston supporters think he can still start in this league which many don’t and really it seems most GMs think he’s a backup now, and a lot of people just aren’t happy with Carr. The backup is usually one of the most important and famous people in a town that supports a bad football team, here with that QB being Winston the divide continues to take place.

It’s honestly sad to see

Been a member since 2003. We had division when Haslett favored Brooks over Del'homme. That was a genius move that backfired. The same goes for present day. We still don't have our QB of the future, but the front office was bold enough to go get what they thought was the answer. Now it's play Carr for another year, and draft your QB of the future in this upcoming draft, or the 2025 draft.

Yea, different circumstances a little. The big time divide there really started when Brooks got hurt and Haslett refused to acknowledge it and it cost us the season.

However, in theory, still division of course. Let's hope Carr can at least be serviceable for the remainder of his time here. Although, I do not hold out much hope for anyone in B&G until this regime is let go. Just listening to Karmara's most recent interview with Underhill on youtube, he has no faith in this staff. It's so evident. We know if he feels that way the majority of players do as well.

I for one, believe that with a change regarding the coaching staff, Carr can be pretty darned good. This is where Loomis MUST make the change, immediately.

Did Tua sit out the remainder of the year?

It looks like he did. Missed six games. His last concussion was, I think, Christmas. He missed the playoffs after. Seven total?

They reluctantly sat him after all the exposure. I think most players still have an old-school view of concussions. If they can play in practice, that's good enough for them. If the team or neurological consultant doesn't step in, the plan is to play. The only people that truly care about their long-term cognitive health are family and close friends. For everyone else, this is just a business agreement.

The thought of Carr leading this team again next year absolutely ruins next season for me ahead of time. I can only hope that the next coaching staff will have the courage to do with Carr what Seattle did with Matt Flynn after drafting Russell Wilson.

When AK requests that trade I’m going to be in shambles

I get the general point, but Carr, after 10 years and multiple coaches, has never been pretty darn good. I think he can be respectable in the Kirk Cousins sense but not elite.

That's why it's important Carr finishes out this season. The FO has to sell the fans hope every year. 2021 it was Jameis. 2022 it was Jameis again because he got hurt in 2021. 2023 it's Carr. If Carr misses the rest of the season I think it could be Carr again because he got hurt. If we play out this thing with DA and Carr and it doesn't work over the next month, they have to come up with something new to sell us.
