Sad to see such an important member from that year go (like it will be when Porter signs somewhere) but good for him for getting paid. I always felt like he was so close to tapping that potential, but never got there. Hopefully he can shine in SD.

Really hate seeing any of the champs go elsewhere but the game is also a biz & that's the way it goes. Thanks Meach, good luck in the future. Anyone on the SB team will forever be a saint in my eyes.

Agreed. The only one I have any ill feelings towards would be Shockey for his antics last year.

Well, in the second game he didn't act up at all. I think he liked it here and was just pissed off about how it went down. Did you see him try and scrap with one of our guys after Harper decked Steve Smith on that dumb arse late hit? No. I can see how people would resent his behavior in that first game but to me it was an overrated topic.

I don't dislike him now, I just didn't like the way he acted. If you want to be fired up to prove something to your former team than by all means go for it. The explicit signals and not shaking anyone's hand after was unnecessary. But he's still a Saint in my mind. We all have our moments. In all honesty, I wouldn't have blamed him for knocking the F out of Harper after that late hit.

Good luck Meach. Kinda weird that they're taking our players. I'm used to it being the other way around


I'm okay with the swap though.

Chargers get our #3 WR
Saints get HOF QB and record-setting RB

Time for Joe Morgan to be our best new deep threat!

Thanks for your time here, Meachem, and thanks for the superbowl.

They love the vertical passing game, and that's pretty much all Meachem does.

Good fit imo.

Much luck to Meachem.

But if the chargers are playing the trading game with the saints I believe the saints won that little battle.

Glad he was able to get his money and still have the chance to shine with one of the best quarterbacks in the league. Good luck Meach and thanks for the memories!!

Good for him, $25.9 isn't bad at all.


$6.5 mil/yr is a lot of money for a WR3 from another team.

The strip and score after the interception vs. Washington is one of my favorite plays of all time. I'll always identify it with that Super Bowl season, because I don't think we win that game, or home-field advantage in the playoffs, without that play.

Thanks for the memories, Meach


Goosebumps just remembering that play.

Judging from the comments on this video, Charger fans are pretty excited about the Meachem signing.

Good luck in SD, Meach! Enjoyed watching you as a Saint!
