Thomas is not faking his injury, he has no incentive to. However, the Saints have to be frustrated with him at this point. Dude has not stayed healthy for most of his stay. He adds extreme value to the Saints both running and receiving, but at some point the Saints have to move on.

Faking an injury just makes absolutely no sense. What does he have to gain from it? Is it going gain him any leverage in contract negotiations? I hate to see this for the guy. He's worked hard to get where he is and now when he's in a position to cash in this happens to him.

Get well soon P.T. and good luck with the rest of your season and career.

I don't buy it. I was surprised PT even got back in the game after that weird turn.

I don't think PT is a bad RB but he isn't anything close to warrant Steven Jackson money though.

A lot of players are actually benefiting from being in this system of Sean's. Seriously these guys have to realize that.

With PT in the game we have the best screen game in the business. He is elusive and powerful with good speed. I like him a lot. He is the perfect runner for the system. Ivory doesn't understand how to read a block he just runs into the blockers back. He has no vision.

you can't make the club if your in the tube. You also can't paid either.

How can you be an effective RB running on one foot?

The trade actually makes alot of sense. he wont be here next year so we obviously wont get anything for him when he walks. the way it looks now he wont even get on the field this year. i would take mccourty in a second. yes we have good corners but porter cant stay healthy and by the looks of it neither can robinson. mccourty is better than robinson anyway. i would also take one of their safeties.
to me this trade would have been great. we wont get anything for the guy now.
