PT, now Grant. Wow, I knew the season was too good to be true. Im not giving up hope but these are all signs of a crappy post season let down.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

HA!

A little Xan love from "The Torture Chamber!"

Seriously, it downgrades Grant's trade bait status.

Was hoping to see one more game this year where he "shows up". That would make a total of about 3 or 4 this year, but can't STAND any of our starters hurt. D-line looked a ton better in the Carolina game.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Excuse me? :confused:

Re: Grant out for season!
 

It's Xan... he plays Devil's advocate and does a good job.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Anything that works, I changed my avatar back to hot saints chick to get some good mojo going again.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Okay. Got it.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

53 tackles, 5½ sacks and a forced fumble isn't what we had hoped for but still not horrible stats. I think its crap but it could have been worse.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

crap? really? i'll take it! he's our second best defensive end! he might not get as many sacks, but, he's good against the run, especially if the back is coming off tackle to his side. that fatass always run's him down!

Re: Grant out for season!
 

still got about two weeks to go before we play and my blood pressure is already rising.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

That's right b$tches. I'm your reality check and aside from the fact that I'm not pretty, I smell bad too.

Hey, did anyone actually see Grant in a uniform this season? We need confirmation. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise?

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I haven't seen him since payday.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Did he injure himself reaching from a cheeseburger?

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Can Mike McKenzie play end? He won't have to drop back into coverage

Re: Grant out for season!
 

funny how now that hes gone for the season, all the charles grant supporters come out of the tool shed to let their voice be heard. he wasnt great, but he wasnt terrible. i think he can be replaced. especially with a committee of guys like we have and they should put up similar numbers

Re: Grant out for season!
 

yeah, xan. i've seen him plenty this season, but, then again...i dont ever miss a game.

did you miss the game against tampa two weeks ago when he killed one of the bucs last drives? all we needed after that was to make a friggin' fg, and he's the hero!

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I hate to wish any harm to any of "our" players but I think that our DE by committee will do just fine in replacing Grant. I was surprised when they cut Spicer so its good to see him back on the team, now GW has more speed at DE to work with, lets see how this goes but I highly doubt its one and done this year

Re: Grant out for season!
 

hey, ragin...i've seen your pics from the upper deck, where's your seats? just curious. i got 2 tix from ebay for the divisional championship game, the 16th, in section 644 row 24.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I haven't missed a game, either, but the last decent game Grant had before the Tampa game was against St. Louis when he had 5 tackles and a half sack. After Week 4 against the Jets when he had two sacks, he should have used some of that fat contract and legally changed his name to Claude Rains.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

We are in section 640 row 29 seats 7-9 .... come look us up before the game. The seats are great too, you are on the Saints side of the field and we are at the 50 yard line so I'm guessing you are at about the 40 or 35 which should make for a good view

oh, yeah, thats what boonedocks talking about!

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Damn what bad news to come to work and hear first thing. I thought it was some sort of a bad joke at first.

well, everyone has injuries. Lets see how we can patch it together.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

sweet. i'm excited! i payed like like 80 dollars less a ticket then what they were going for on the scalping websites!

i'll come say hi. i'll be wearing my white, vildabeast jersey!

Re: Grant out for season!
 

i mean it was a HUGE CLUTCH play. but looking at the picture now, it wasnt all that tough of a play. freeman pretty much threw it low enough for grant to drop kick the ball out the air. lol. well not that low, but u get what ima sayin. credit grant for being in position at least and having the awareness to get his hands up in the air and bat it down. but isnt that pretty much the basics for D lineman? i think we'll be fine w/o him

Seems like when he decided to show up, he did. 4 games does not a season make, however. And worse, his "show up" games were against the worst rated offensive lines in the league (J-E-T-S 23rd in PP, StL 24th, TB 11th and Buf 32nd.)

Put a couple of low salary guys who'll be excited for the 3 paydays and you'll see a lot of aggressive play. Hopefully they'll play well in the system...

Re: Grant out for season!
 

like i said, first. he's a our 2nd best defensive end, and he'll be missed. i'm HOPING mccray will fill in nicely. HOPING.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I feel like Grant is going to be missed some what the rest of the year. I'm hoping that we bring in a couple of talented DE's in the off season. The really bad thing is this diminishes his trade value.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I wonder if they can find a another DE somewhere so late? Doubtful

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Grant has played this year like he has every other year with the Saints. Looks like all pro player and disappears for long stretches. Seriously, this does hurt the Saints, at least with their rotation formula. Since he has been with the team all this time, I would have loved to see him finish the season. The writing has been on the wall for a good while that he will probably not be with the Saints next season. Especially now, I just don't see that happening.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

we will be ok. keep your head up boys its going to get ruff.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

It would be ruff if you hit me in the face with those while I went BLBLBLBLBLBL !

(SLAAAAAAAAAAP!) Oh, no baby, I was just talking about her shoes.... You never can be too careful.... I wasnt even looking at her big --(SLAAAAAAAP!) Whaaat? (POW!)

ok... i'll go home now.....

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Yeah Mike, I would love to "come to work" "first thing" at 3:38pm too. LOL

Were you in the chopper all day or just slept in a little?

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I'm good with high octane starting over grant. I think he's a better rusher

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I like Spicer, but what kind of shape is he in???

Re: Grant out for season!
 

hopefully hes in game shape. but i kno one thing. hes goin to have some fresh legs to pressure qbs

Re: Grant out for season!
 

I'm really worried about our ability to stop the run with Grant done for the year. McCray is supposed to be a "pass rusher" but seems like a liability against the run. I think that GWilliams will dial up the blitz like earlier in the season when the secondary was healthy. Let's hope for the best......

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Sorry I was unclear. I think its crap that he is injured.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Insert (Hargrove) = Instant Upgrade.. Team - Charles Grant in uncapped offseason.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

oh no, boss-- split shift. split shift. morning drive and afternoon drive. Its good and its bad.

Re: Grant out for season!
 

Let's hope for better than the production we've gotten from Will Smith till now...
