Hot Takes Welcome (Post Raiders Loss) (6 Viewers)

[El Caliente]

I think the team should give Rattler a chance to compete for the starting quarterback spot against Carr next year, and with a new coach at the helm, I think that it’s a real possibility that we have that open competition.

I’m not expecting playoffs next year, and I am expecting a house cleaning, but the beauty in the NFL (unlike many other pro sports leagues) is that parody is alive and well, so I am expecting a better season than this Hindenburg of a season that we just witnessed. One year ago team can be a bottom dweller, and the next they can make the playoffs.

I also don’t that think Mickey is the guy to get us back on track unless he hires another Sean Payton type.

I got a 15 yo on the spectrum and the kid’s brilliant

Mine too - he has a laser focus on things he's interested in like I never had - and has electrician skills at 15 to the point that our guy that wired our add on to our house is letting him apprentice for him this summer. We got a new dishwasher this Christmas and he begged me to let him wire it up (I never knew that new appliances don't come with a cord....geez) - I watched him do it....he's amazing, I love that kid!

We are that bad. If someone says that the Saints are the worst team in the NFL, don’t fight it. They are right.

Rattler is a good quarterback, he is just playing with guys who shouldn’t be in the NFL.

Rizzi ball isn’t dead, but it’s on life support.

I only had one eye on the game, and the other on some crawfish chowder. This game wasn’t worth focusing all my attention on the game.

Jokes on the Raiders. Their win is ultimately their loss.

New Year, New Saints.

Rattler is dealing with the same problems that Carr has had to deal with, Rattler might get better with time, but I'm not ad confident as I once was

Moving up the draft board.

Where are we moving to ? Looks like we're still at 10

Hot take:

The coaches are not to blame. They’re putting players in the right positions, the players are just not executing.

On offense the QB is throwing 1,000 mph fastballs every play, the receivers are dropping balls hitting them straight in their hands, it’s mainly due to a lack of talent on that end with so many backups to the backups playing.

On defense it’s time for a few guys to hang up the cleats. They’re getting ran over, a step too slow, and just getting pushed around or outran.

The team needs some old heads to take a paycut for next season, or just retire, and we need an influx of youth badly

Thank you. And I don't believe one of them has missed a tackle

Least we aren’t the Jets.




Rodgers benched himself today lol. What a clown show.

His take. ^. NSFW.
Love his take as well.

The opening day 53 man roster in 2026 needs to have 40 new players on it. That should be the organizational goal.

3 up, 3 down in Saints-Raiders: Spencer Rattler's step forward not nearly enough

We’re back again, and here I am wondering why I thought it was a good idea to write a stock up, stock down column every week. But that’s what we do, so let’s do it after the Saints fell 25-10 to the Raiders in Week 17.

1st he only threw 4 passes in the 1st possession , 1 was dropped by Austin, 2 were caught by JJ, the other pass to JJ it would have had to been a spectacular catch because the ball was WAY too high and hard.

2nd possession, the pass to MVS was not a drop the defender made a great play on the ball. SR had plenty of time to throw had he not had a hitch in his throw and got rid of it quicker it might have been a catch before the defender got there. Next pass and the only other one thrown this possession was almost picked

3rd possession, 1st pass was not for Prentiss it was for MVS , if was for him it was an awful throw way too high and hard. 2nd pass to CEH was a drop
Only 2 passes on this possession so there could not be 4 drops

4th possession , 1st pass to Foster was pretty much in the dirt hardly a drop. 2nd pass complete to Pettis , he also had JJ breaking free wide open.
3rd pass complete to Wilson but got a holding call . 4th pass he had time and threw a pass WAY too high and hard for Wilson to catch and it was tipped and picked. It was an easy pass to complete.

The point is you said you were there, and 4 passes were dropped on EACH of the possessions to start the 2nd half , when on a few possessions he didn't even throw 4 passes so how could 4 passes be dropped when he didn't throw 4 passes? You sure you were at the right game?

You are completely wrong in blaming Rattler for the loss because he is a bad QB!

in the NFL its "parity"

The Saints are a "parody" of an NFL team at the moment. So you were close

 

[MikeyF]

The point is you said you were there, ... You sure you were at the right game?

You say you are a fan but are you really??
All you do is attack a rookie QB because he isn't the one you like!

Fandom gatekeeping is Wack AF.

Let's stop that please!

Let's get back to piling on why our team sucks this year!

kthxbi!

Loomis was right. Firing Allen did not lead to a turnaround.

There isn't a coach in the NFL or College ranks that could have turned this mess around, not this year at least. Allen messed the psyche and culture of the team in his short (but long overstayed stint as HC) so it will take a few years to wash the stink off of the team. Loomis just stated the obvious, that his guy was so horrible and left a stain on the team and its image for years to come.
