At least we aren't going to see Joey "Thanks Saints for extending my career by 5 years" Galloway next week with a depleted secondary. When is Sharper returning???

Brees looks just fine to me. Those two picks were Shockey's fault. Both of them.

And how does Brees look if Colston doesn't idiotically try and leap into the end zone instead of just barrelling his way in on a smaller defender? I guess he thinks since Reggie is allowed to do it, he should be allowed to do it as well.

He just goes on inactive list and Torrence goes active for 4 to 6 weeks.

He wouldn't have been next week when Greer comes back.

A lot of other injuries in the NFL yesterday, including Panthers OT Gross out for the season. No need to do anything rash - we have 9 wins. Just mix in Jenkins and Torrence, they need more game experience. Jenkins has been okay he just needs to watch the illegal contact.

Maybe sign another CB for depth purposes who has some upside. I'm not an advocate of signing McKenzie unless he is healthy and in good enough shape to play like the old M.M.
