It has been a long time since the fan base of the New Orleans Saints has been as outwardly negative as they are right now. And the ironic thing is it comes with the team in the middle of a chase for an NFC South championship with three teams tied at the top of the division.

What gives? Why do so many Who Dats think the team should just lose the rest of the way? What do they think that would accomplish? Would Coach Dennis Allen and his staff be forced to exit stage left? Would a higher draft pick come in and help be a savior? Or would it be more of the same?

As he usually does, Jim Derry weighs in on the situation and gives his take ahead of the game vs. the New York Giants – a team with a worse record whose fans have a completely different feeling. And also on the Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 198), The Athletic’s Larry Holder makes his weekly Friday appearance to share his thoughts on the Black and Gold, as the duo also previews Sunday’s game and goes through some of the big matchups in Week 15 of the NFL.
