Anyone believe he won't play?

Their coach has obviously been learning from Payton not to reveal information.

Well, the good news is no Mora, and Billick calling the game, with their always apparent homerism to the Falcons. Gimme Mike, jaws, and gruden anyday of the week!

Hes gotta play, especially since he has been talking all that smack. I wanna see Harper rain the hurt down on his face.

He has no excuses Brees played with one leg for 6-8 weeks. Get your butt out there white, you big puss!.. and take whats coming to you.

Sean Payton's going to put on a show for his homeboy Gruden tomorrow night.

I will play Devils Advocate. Other than smack talk, why would this game be of importance to Atlanta? A loss for Atlanta does nothing to their playoff birth. We all know their chance of loosing to Carolina is virtually nil. They can loose to us and beat Carolina and still have the NFC South Title, still retain home field advantage.

On the preface that Roddy does have a banged up knee, or it is questionable. If I am Atlanta, I do not play him against the Saints, and probably not against Carolina, I save him for the games that really count. The Playoffs; where they will probably face Philli and need him a lot.

I agree it is probably BS, but if it is not... I do not play him and risk making his knee worse and not have him in the Play Offs.....

If it were us, Colston or Brees had a banged up knee, our next game had no bearing on our playoff picture, we knew we could beat Carolina... Payton would rest him.

Smack Talk is important for players, winning SB's, and Divisions are important for Coaches and GM's.
