Just not something I get involved in. I have a higher morale code. I root for what is best for the team. If he emerges great. So far nobody owns that role and we are heading in to week 4 and , as I have firmly stated, would be the case. He has one catch just like everyone else. It is a TD but it is also for much less yards than the other two receptions by quite a bit.

If you believe he is going to be rolling as the 3rd WR then great. I base my convictions on reality. He has already had a setback as he stated in injury recovery. I took that as actually bad. Not sure how you read it. Coach also said his timing and route running is off. I took that as bad. These are not my words. These are from him and Peyton.

Hey. Show me where Meredith said he had any setback in his injury recovery. I call BS on that. I've followed his recovery closely since we signed him until he hit the field this past week.

I assume you are referring to this:

It was reported that this tweet had nothing to do with any setback in his injury recovery.

And you are already wrong because Meredith has already taken over as the primary slot receiver in his very first game back.

Snap counts week 3:

Austin Carr 13 16%

Tre'Quan Smith 26 33%

Cameron Meredith 34 43%

Smith was in for Ginn. Meredith received THREE time more snaps than did Carr. Why? Because that's why he was signed. It has already been determined. You are just too blinded by your dislike for Meredith that you fail to see the obvious.

And once again, I'm NOT betting against any Saints player. I hope Carr and Tre'Quan Smith contribute hugely. I am simply expecting Meredith to be the primary slot receiver ... the position for which he was signed for $5 million.

What is your problem, man?

Snap count wk 3:

Craig Robertson - 0. Wow.

The only thing I can think of is that CR is getting eaten up in coverage at practice, no? On the flip side, Anzalone appears lost a lot at times.

FWIW, Craig Robertson did come up with the fumble off of that blocked (Okafor) punt. He's always around the ball. That was a huge momentum swing in the game.

I'm beginning to think that Robertson is an instinctual freak, but is having issues comprehending the complexity of the defense. That would explain everything. It doesn't matter how physically talented a player is if he cannot stay on the same page as the rest of the defense. Special teams allow more individuality.
