  • Good Show

    It’s a solid show but I feel my insides getting more and more irritated every second I have to listen to who ever is BREATHING INTO THE MIC!

    I’ll be happy to change it to a more appropriate rating when that stops…. It makes it soooo hard to listen to.

  • Winstead

    The issue with Winstead is that he threw four passes two were tds and two were intercepted. That won’t really win games without a stupid good defense. The D as of late hasn’t been stupid good.

    When saints D is back to being the Saints D maybe he’s good enough. Also Carr hasn’t seen the best of the WR. They’re better last week but they’re young and haven’t been finishing their routes properly.

    Also not using Taysom in a fourth and short is just stupid. Why is that a call ANYONE would call?!?... more
