Let's see how this plays out.

Looks like some dead weight comes off next year... So yeah... We'll see.

All great points.

Wonder if Landry shares the "home team" emotion Tyrann is feeling...

Saints seem to have appx $18MM in cap space unless I'm reading this wrong

Not sure. PFT (at least Florio) likes to bash the Saints (I realize he did not write the article). The comments after the article aren’t very flattering for Thomas. Apparently many others are doubtful about his successful return as well.

Taking off my homer glasses for a minute our #1 is QB coming off ACL surgery, #1 WR from ankle surgery/missing an entire year, #1 RB facing suspension, two new starting safeties, a rookie LT, oft-injured LG and a RG who’s not exactly lived up to expectations.

I’m not saying we can’t be a great team, there’s just more “hurdles” than MT’s ankle…

Don't disagree at all. However, these aren't high school players . They are getting paid, some of them high $. These are professionals with pride , presumably. Brees once had a bum shoulder as a new Saint.

No doubt it’s all a matter of perspective. With all the crap the team faced last year they still finished with a winning record.

Here is the full interview FYI. I noticed the “hurdles” comment wasn’t included in either the poorly written article or the video. The part about Thomas starts at 8:25.

I doubt there is a team in the NFL that doesn't have hurdles coming into a new season and others that will arise as the season progresses. I am excited about this coming season.
