Is a playoff berth.. 6,7,8 wins it don't matter get in and all is forgotten.. That's the goal right and everyone get's a lifetime achievement award and a new contract. Get killed lose wild card weekend, it won't matter that not what we striving for.

Don't matter if we never win one or do real damage just get in. Ignore that it took this regime 10 games to realize that Jefferson should get the ball many times every game no matter what.. Backs against the wall then we want to have a get right game. Can't do it consistently gotta wait until we backed way way up. Don't matter that if we get in and killed, because we reached our goal of just making playoffs. Then we can go on with our in the playoffs odd years not in even years. The Saga continues as the hamster wheel turns.

So I hope 8 wins getting in and losing quickly makes some happy. Because I want more I have bigger aspirations in mind. No reason we so up and down. Year after year and game after game. My goal still is aimed higher than a crawl in the playoffs. Sorry just getting the 7th seed and losing is not a parade thrower for me. *blahblahblah*

Like Denny Green said if you want to crown um crown um but they are what I thought they were. A team that is inconsistent and should be better than what they are.

The backs against the wall rally mode button has been activated.. Exactly like I thought, just to pimp slap the ones who get sucked in the vacuum once again.

We not been consistent all year, but we suppose to believe we will now and weave through a gauntlet of teams Cards, Packers, Bucs, Rams, and Cowboys back to back to back on the road in the playoffs 🤷🏾‍♂️

To win in the playoffs is the epitome of consistency. Chargers are notorious chokers in history. Not surprised we won, we will get GB this time too. But to keep from getting let down I will keep my guard up until proven otherwise. Until further proof this ain't nothing but a save face rally cry scramble to mediocrity instead of flat sorry, not a rally to elite.

If they lose out fair and , Im cool with that, might get us a new coaching outlook which is long in coming. What would make me drop this squad in a heartbeat is if I saw players laying down. Getting into the playoffs limping or not means you have a chance, and thats all one can ask. Ball bounces funny, after all.
Drank, how bad would you dump on one of your boys who wouldnt play all out? Nevermind, there is only one answer, no one can tolerate that.
So I hope for wins and celebrate them when we get em but dayuhm I will root stronger when we have a new regime. Until they go the way of mediocrity at least. Just show some innovation and steady PROGRESS and LEAD the team and I will cheer thru the schit storms.

What I am saying is this listen to me closely.. This team plays with emotions. I want to win it all or be right there. To me the worst case scenario for us is no mans land. Not good enough to really do nothing, but still picking muddle of the pack and no clarity so they keep this regime.

Our luck is just that not good enough for trophies, but not bad enough for real change.

The Bible speaks of "Lukewarm" it is said to be better to be hot or cold than lukewarm. It telling the truth because I hate lukewarm.. Either ball out so we know this regime legit or not so we can move on with clarity. I am tired of the lukewarm variety for us. I want it all, but not the half way in half way out version.. My character hates that most. Like I rather someone to be not racist. But I rather a person be all out racist wear the suit and all, then a person who act and say they not, but are in the dark. I hate that the most lukewarm be all in or all out u dig.

Well for starters I think we are going to get beaten down next weekend. Packers defense is playing legit this year so Rodgers doesn’t have to be the whole team as shown for example this last game against Seattle. But i don’t see how we do any better than 4-4 the rest of the way and that doesn’t guarantee you the 7th seed (aka sympathy playoff spot). That would mean we are below .500. I know we are doing now what we do every year we under achieving with the back against the wall mentality and play as best as we possibly can, but there is no way this team wins more than 4 more games rest of year. It’s not happening. I don’t see us beating gb this year and the inevitable split with Chicago is going to happen. That’s 3 losses right there which means to get to 8-9 we can only lose one more game. Have to think we lose at least one of Sf, la rams, or Pittsburgh games. That’s 4 losses at least right there. The question really is what ownership is thinking and how long of a leash they are giving zimmer. I do t believe if we miss playoffs there is any way ownership let’s him stay. I just think the fan reaction will be unbelievably high for a firing.

People dont understand that we are not rooting for losses even for better draft pick, its to get this current regime out. Im scared to death of another Saints playoff win family extensions to all. Yes you always technically have a chance if you are in the dance, but like my boy drank said do you really see us winning 3 in a row at Tampa, at Dallas, at GB? Even if we snuck by wilcard weekend, do you see this team not reverting back to its old ways the next game? We have never won a Super Bowl I dont expect us to get lucky with this team. Sad thing is they are all saying the right things after the game, gotta be more aggressive, Kirk needs to force the ball downfield to JJ and Thielen etc etc. But will yesterdays second half continue on ? Love the 3rd and 20 throwing at the sticks for once, then the 4th and 2 going for it. Will it continue? I hope they prove me wrong and a win vs a very good packer team would be a way to do it, but I still believe the fastest chance to a super bowl is being done with this regime and Kirk.

I don't know my guy we might get GB. I think we split with them. Likely to split with Bears too. Lions and we can beat one of Steelers or 49ers neither is unbeatable. 8 wins looking like it will get us in Falcons falling off we beat Seahawks and Panthers. This win was big for playoff chances I can't lie. 8-9 and in is what I see.

You can work with that.

Kirk Cousins does not strike me as anything you just mentioned for one.

I just trying to brace for the fall. I want us to jam, but if we get all hyped we know how this team will do us in the end. I have become numb to it. When we had the Miracle, I thought we was winning it then they b*tch slapped me. They be wearing me out LOL!

Thank you my guy, that is exactly what it is.. I just trying to avoid false hope we been burned so many times. I am flat scared to keep this regime if we just make playoffs. Spooked like seeing a ghost. We stuck in the middle, I would want nothing more for them to prove me wrong and take us to the mountain top. This just smells like a push to where we always are. It's not being mean we have 8 years of proof.

My thoughts are which door is better for our long term future. Door 1 crawl in playoffs keep everyone and this up and down continues prolonging the mediocrity.. Door 2 get it over with so we have clarity and let's us know the time is now for change, given us a fresh new beginning.. Door 3 is doing the impossible which I just don't see the consistency to get that done they would have to surprise me with door 3. The signs and history says that not happening but I guess we will see.

Since it's nearly that time of year.
I'm very thankful that neither the Wild or Timber Wolves existed when I lived and grew up in Minnesota. Never had any allegiance to either. Have enough disappointment in the Vikings and Twins.

I don’t know drank. I think we are about to get a sniff of reality on next Sunday. I don’t see us splitting with gb this.
