Let’s be clear: I’m not advocating for the New Orleans Saints to give up on the 2021 season. Nor am I thinking all hope is lost. But too often Saints sites and blogs paint a picture of how everything is always rainbows and gummy bears, so some times it’s important to take a step back and think about the harsh reality.
This is going to be a two-part series where in this piece I will lay out all of the reasons why the Saints should at least be open to the idea of focusing on 2022 and beyond at the sake of sacrificing the potential success of the 2021 season.
