Can't Guard Mike

Nothing more ignorant than someone talking smack about an injury that they obviously have zero knowledge of.

This is a Saints forum, shawn. Telling people that they're ignorant for having opinions based on the information that we all have available to us on the internet doesn't mean anything other than you're an

hole and Michael Thomas won't date you.

Fans of MT are talking about turf-toe and ankle braces. Fans of Mahomes are talking about another Lombardi Trophy.

If the information is available to us all how is it that some consistently get the facts wrong? Go figure.

1000 percent agree

Just wondering, based upon Thomas' contract how does it benefit the Saints to cut or trade him at this point? Any one of the four options would result in $26 million in dead cap one way or another. The maximum in cap savings for 2023 is only $1.565 million with either post 6/1 option. Isn't a healthy Michael Thomas worth $1.565 million for 2023 since we have to fork over the rest anyway?

Then again, with a true contract rewrite (not a restructure) to more of a prove it deal it could cost the Saints much less on all counts.

To be fair, MT did do it with Brees at the helm. But that was the last time. It feels like ten years ago
