+1.

A guy (TS) who has missed basically all of training camp due to a serious injury that required surgery hold on to a roster spot is just wild to me.

Saints will be lucky to have him back in the rotation by early October.

Sean F (or maybe it was John H) wrote an article stating that "if" "Trequan misses this year opener, it will be the third consecutive season that he has missed wk 1 because of an injury".

Best ability is availability.

This should be an intriguing matchup. DHop vs Latt, their Oline vs Saints Dline.

Rookie Tyjae Spears could see some action & give Henry a breather or two. He's (TS) had a really good camp.

And remember he had a “knee” concern earlier. Tough way to start.

Especially with no AK for the next 3 weeks.

Certainly worrisome at this early phase of his NFL career

I'm not trying to count chickens before they hatch, however looking at the teams and QB's we face in 2023 ... Ryan Tanneyhill may be the biggest challenge for our defense in Sept. Here are some of the other opponents we see early on:

Bryce Young (2), Jordan Love, Richardson, Mayfield (pick 6 in waiting), Mac Jones, Stroud (rookie), Ridder, Goff etc ... any given sunday but these guys don't strike fear for me in crunch.

Our new Dcoordinator along with Allen should bring the kitchen sink with different defensive looks.

IF the Saints bring their A game, each Sunday ... we should be in a good spot by late November, early December.

But hey I get it ... ANY GIVEN SUNDAY.

If there's any week I don't want to face Derrick Henry, it's week one.

Over the last four years he's averaged 160yds per game in week one.

Is that state meaningful? Probably not. It's Derrick f'n Henry and he's going to get 100 on us by default. I just hope our Run D is improved.

Did you see how poorly our young wide receivers blocked in that last game? I did not want 3Q but I understand why he's still here. We need a good blocker to open up the yards after catch.
