Lutz go Saints!!

I’m not saying anything Saints fans don’t know…but with a decent kicking game the Saints make the playoffs last year. Added to a strengthened WR, DB, and Oline corps we get Wil Lutz back! Him and Blake give us a hell of a one-two punch in the special teams game.

Re: Lutz go Saints!!

Saints were a 9-win team in 2021 without Lutz.

Imagine if we had Will.

Having him back healthy is definitely a PLUS.

Re: Lutz go Saints!!

Having Wil back for the extra points would have got us in the playoffs last season alone. I saw an interesting stat a few weeks back showing that our PK corps (Maher, Rojas, Johnson, and Parkey) combined for an 83.3% FG success rate in 2021. Wil Lutz had an 82.1% rate in 2020. It's XP's that killed us with the 2020 crew only hitting 81.6%, while Wil hit 98.3% (57 for 58) in 2020.

Hard question is.... Will we get the Lutz we all know and love?

I guess Thomas and Winston aren’t the only ones we are counting on to rebound from injuries.

So I'm not the only one worried that Peat won't return to playing as he did during his pro-bowl season?

I hope Lutz comes back strong but I'll temper my expectations. That is a tough injury to come back from.

I'm not sure if we were a scene from MASH last year or a scene from The Walking Dead. Either way it was ugly to watch and a full production crew could not have made it any better. Hats off to Dr. Rhea for bringing science to the table.

That's the funniest thing I've read in days and I read a lot of funny stuff to keep my day light and enjoyable.

He’ll be OK after a few Sammiches.

If that works for Peat then I'm buying stock in Popeyes!
