FYI. They completely replaced the playing surface this off-season.

As I mentioned earlier, the turf is brand new. I have also read that most of the blame on foot and toe injuries lies with the shoes being used by players today. Shoes are one of the few items that are left up to the discretion of the players. They are getting lighter and less supportive.

I'd like to see Baldy breakdown the Saints interior defense line.

I thought Roach had a low key good game. Same goes for Breesse. In the game day chat, I mentioned he was getting in (1/2 sack in the books). Once he puts it all together, he's is going to be something else.

For the most part, Derick Henry was held (68 yards) in check.

If you get a chance to re watch the game, Cam & Carl were exceptional for 4 quarters.

As posted earlier, if surgery is required to fix it, it's a torn tendon/ligament. The shoe angle is a valid one. Also the physical make up of the player. If it were entirely the turf as the culprit, the entire team may be injured. Cameron Jordan has managed to not incur such an injury. What makes him so special?

Glad we got the win at home. A lot of other teams were not so lucky - KC, MIN, CHI, NYG, PIT, etc. That was too close. I would've been punching the air if we lost to a team that beat us using 6 field goals!

From everything I've read, yes the rug itself was replaced as it is just about every year. To my understanding, they are still using the same type of slit film turf and that is what appears to be hurting the players at a higher rate.
