and just because he was hurt, doesnt mean he wasnt our best backup, it just means he couldnt play those seasons....who did we have as a backup that was better? the 2nd statement is based on actually watching him play |

Which backup LB was better than MS last year? Any who was physically able to play. |

I can just imagine Canton as the head coach of the Saints. DC: We need to put in our backup LB. Canton: Well, they aren't as good as Simoneau. DC: But Simoneau is on IR Coach. Canton: Yeah, sure we can't play him? DC: Yeah Coach, pretty sure we can't play the guy on IR. Canton: Okay, screw it. Lets just run with 10 on defense. Same difference anyway. DC: *BANG* If only I could start a poll, we could make this a solve-it-yourself mystery. Did the DC commit Suicide or Murder? Watching him play while he as on IR? Was he still running circles around everyone else while he was paying on IR? |

Of course, that has nothing to do with whether this year's team will be less effective than last year's team given the fact that MS did not play. |
