Good lord, man. I'm not longing for Carl Peterson, Mr. Otter. That's not my interest whatsoever. I was just curious how those two guys might compare in terms of overall job performance at this stage of the game. Sort of a tit for tat kind of deal. Where Carl is the tit and Pioli is the tat. And so far, Lamar is kicking Clark's tail in the GM hire department.

It's a different era, of course. Still, it's interesting to note how Carl got off to a good start with Marty, DT, a few playoff appearances including a win and then essentially, in terms of effectiveness, just degraded over time. Perhaps, Pioli will do just the opposite ... he certainly hasn't set the world on fire so far. Maybe he's a slow starter.

And in two weeks, you'll want them out.

It's good that Berry, Charles and MO won't be fully healthy until next year, when we get our new QB, GM, and HC.

I don't really know whats up with Asamoah. Wasn't he a mauler coming out?

Nah...I always hope and wish, it just never happens.

Eachus should be in more pass protect.

:LOL:

Can't believe I read the whole thing.

Nobody can be a mauler with captain softie as a coach

You would think that having the Executive of the Decade would make one forget about Carl Peterson. But his name sticks around....

:cuss:

Obligatory

Damnit Carl!!! :cuss:

I would trade Pioli for King Carl in a jiffy, atleast Carl gave us something to be excited about, the high flying Dick Vermeil circus, we have never had a more fun season than that one.

But not the leadership.

Eachus should be bagging groceries.

Very true... I don't think many people expected an epic failure like this one.

KANSAS CITY AT NEW ORLEANS (-9.5)- It's the last chance for this Saints team. Because as bad as they've looked, perhaps nobody has been worse than the Chiefs thus far. They can't stop a parked car let alone an opposing NFL offense. Still, could you really trust New Orleans' defense to hold down Kansas City enough to win by double figures? Their defense has struggled in many aspects, and although offensively they committed a bit more to the running game, it still wasn't enough. This is the last chance I'm giving the Saints and if they don't pull it off, you might as well put them at 0-5 heading to their bye week.
