Just Remember Where This Franchise Was A Decade Ago... (1 Viewer)

I've said this before, but now is a good time to say it again. The standards have been raised for this franchise. I can remember when I was a kid, a 7-9 season seemed like a luxury. That has turned into disappointment in 2016.
I think people forget how low this franchise was on the totem pole of the league. Standing alongside the Browns, Jaguars, and Lions. Not anymore.
I just thought this had to be said.

A decade ago we were on our way to the NFC Championship game.

I recall, I lived it. We know what it takes to win it all, yet here we are 0-3. I can accept a down season here and there, but it's tough to swallow when it repeatedly happens, especially when you have one of the GREATEST of ALL TIME as your QB.

You're right. A decade ago we were a much better team and we should remember those times.

Lions 1-2
Saints 0-3

2015
Browns below .500
Jaguars below .500
Lions below .500
Saints below .500

2014
Browns below .500
Jaguars below .500
Saints below .500
Lions went 11-5

And no, this gives me no satisfaction to post.
