Starting Guard Battle? Should Throckmorton supplant Peat/Ruiz when McCoy returns?

I've tried to stay away from piling on negativity on Peat, but he was just terrible in that game, and not for the first time.

I don't know if the line would be better overall with him being replaced by Throckmorton when McCoy returns, but it certainly is something to think about.

That contract he is on was and is a headscratcher.

And he's often on the ground when a sack occurs. When you focus in on the replay of the game, Andrus Peat continues to be the weak link (Morgan Fox ate his lunch all game) on the Saints offensive line. Peat was flat-out terrible.

I'm also floored that the front office gave him such a lucrative contract.

And some want this guy as your tackle? Holy smokes
