Will anyone be held accountable for the Pels meltdown this season or will it get swept under the rug? The LaToya recall officially ends, Neuty comes home, and so much more.

The Pelicans have some kinks to work out, Willie gets tossed, Jose sparks it up, and Ingram returns, but one thing is for certain, this team needs Zion and fast. The Saints are gonna be sideline spectators during the draft, as Sean Payton remains unemployed, and LaToya "faces the nation" but mostly "avoids the questions" and the return of The Worst!

The Saints follow up their worst, most boring season in recent memory with a bad decision to keep Dennis Allen, and there's still a giant question mark for a quarterback. The Pelicans keep finding ways to win while more players face injuries - When will Herb Jones be back? Does it matter if they give us a date? Mel Gibson is and then isn't the captain of Endymion and everyone (including us) has something to say about it.
