Luke Johnson | Jameis Winston tore his ACL and is out for the year

This sucks. The guy was getting better every game. One silver lining is that since we'll be in cap hell again, if Sean wants to keep him which I think he does, he shouldn’t command a lot of money

One horse collar tackle by a Bucs defender for a just a 15 yard penalty and we lose our starting QB for the season!

Just doesn't seem fair does it? Grrrrrrrrrrr!

I was thinking the same thing, + should be an automatic ejection at least given the fact that most horse collars end in serious injury.

Or at least a big fine, hit them in the pocket where it hurts!

A fine with a suspension equal to the time the injured player misses.

Take that to the next CBA negotiations in ten years when suspensions and fines are readdressed and eventually finalized by player vote.

You have my vote to represent the Saints. I thank you for your service!

If/when he comes back he's going to have to get a lot quicker with his progressions. I was previously proud of him for taking the sack, he needs to protect himself. I assumed our receivers weren't getting open but they mostly were for Trevor so now I don't know. Heck, watching the replay he got hurt it looks like Ingram is standing alone 5 yards in front of Winston.

That's my question. How is Trevor able to find the WRs and Winston couldn't? What? They tried harder to get open with Trevor? Makes the whole "WRs aren't getting open" argument with Winston seem a little less on the WRs and more on Winston.

But who knows? Guess we'll have to see what happens this week.

To be fair Winston was hitting our raggedy receivers right in their hands against Seattle and they just kept dropping them. It also helps to have Harris back.

He hit Smith for a TD with a nice throw before getting hurt too.
