Colston was full at practice today, so that's some good news.

This is bad. Parts are interchangeable, but you can't plug a s****y part into the system and expect a good performance.

How about Chuck Muncie? He must available.

I dont get it, 150 ibuprofen , 8 beers, and I'm not even groggy

B_Dub_Saint 01-05-2011 06:24 PM

Yea this is horrible. I hope this new Bell guy works out.

skymike 01-05-2011 06:27 PM

Well it completely sux to lose PT. On the surface, this looks disastrous.

You're saying This Joique Bell is playing Div II ball, where he looks good, but he certainly looks like a player. Looks like he's got some good burst, and outstanding power, which we could use. If he can prove he can pass block this week, he might get that shot.

One other thing comes to mind. Look at the size of the bleachers where he's playing. Can you imagine how pumped up he'll be when he runs into an NFL stadium?

Anybody still want an 18 game season?

Tell you something else, if any organization can find somebody from nowhere, and get gold out of them, which team would that be?

Yep, only the Pats or the Saints could, no one has as many scouts as we both have.

..and 18 games is ridicules. Even if the RB's and WR can survive it, the QB's never will.

thank you!

Pierre Thomas, youre an outstanding man. Made something out of yourself, as an undrafted free agent with hard work, belief, and guts.
We'll miss you, and we will be looking for you next training camp-- better than ever. God Bless, brother.

I agree, I hate Roger Goodell for taking a hard line stance in pushing an 18-game schedule. That's scummy behavior.

TheKillerBs 01-05-2011 06:47 PM

skymike, I really doubt PT will be with this team next year.

I second that.

Rueben Mayes 01-05-2011 07:14 PM

bringing the wood?
 
time for Reggie to bring it and Julius Jones and Bell will have to step up if and/or when they are called upon. I think we should have enough to get by Seattle but the following two stops on the Magical Mystery Tour will be decidedly tougher!

Geaux Saints!

Pierre Thomas has zero leverage now, and I doubt any other team spends a dime on him.

We'll make him a decent offer at market value, let him shop, and he'll resign here. GlassBacks have next to zero value. After all, this team has proven we can take unknowns and they perform, so I'm sure "system back" is on most GM's minds.

I'm 90% sure he'll be a Saint in 2011.

ShowUsUrRing 01-05-2011 07:25 PM

Mannnnnnn this sucks! Totally not the right time for all these injuries. When I heard Ivory was done, that was a huge blow. This offense is so much more effective with the power run mixed with Brees and this passing attack. Now that PT is out too, it really succcks! I still think we'll be fine in the end, Sean Payton will gameplan to each available backs advantage. And Reggie, this is your time man. I have been on your wagon all 5 years you've been here. But you are long overdue to start consistently producing game after game. Especially if you want that $11.8 owed next year. And as far as this Bell guy, dont really know much about him but from what I hear and see on highlights he is nothing but power! Just hope he can learn our system fast! So come on Saints lets make this run again! Everybody step up! WHOOOO DATTTTTTT! Dancin' to Dallas!

Rueben Mayes 01-05-2011 08:13 PM

18 game schedule idea?
 
I hate it...the league and Goodell talking out both sides of their mouths when one moment they are saying they are concerned about player safety and then another taking a hardline stance with respect to ushering in an era of the 18 game schedule.

I know it is only about the bottom line for the owners but with all of the added, and expected, injuries, aren't they in fact going to take away from this great game, i.e. owners failing to see the larger picture? Guess it really is all about getting yours as fast as you can.

Some of the best players will incur injuries and be available less often with the addition of these 2 games.

By all means reduce the # of Xhibition games (which I fully support) but I guess if the owners don't get their way and add 2 regular season games a reduction of xhibition games won't happen either. More games whether they be regular season or xhibition means more money in their coffers.

I like things just the way they are now. Hard Knocks was the highlight of the pre-season for me this year because it had such a provocative and compelling team with the most colorful personalities to follow. I would enjoy seeing the Saints on Hard Knocks next season:)

Geaux Saints!!!

I wish there was some way the fans voices could be heard on the matter of 18 games. I really think most of us want no part of it, because we know many of the players we love to watch will never survive it. The NFL will become depth VS depth, because the our favorite 1st string players will be on the sidelines hurt, or being saved for the , NOW, last 2 games that matter in the 18 game season.

Anyone interested in a game of major importance were C. Danells is vs Kitna. Arrington, robe vs crump, sayer on the cowboys? Were both our RB's are no names and both our OL and DL are being sat? That is exactly what is coming.

anyone really think they wont want 20 games in 10 years. Then 22..24..next thing we know were the NBA,lol

exiled 01-05-2011 08:59 PM

Huge fan of PT and CI
big loss. Hope Dano is right about the interchangeability in this offense. This season seems to show he is right.

As for the 18 game season - this is a good example of why I am against it.
but assuming it does happen - the 53 man roster should be increased to 60.

2 is one 8th of 16 - so you are adding one eight more games - the roster should also increase by an eighth.

maybe that would show the owners that this is an expensive proposition and they would change their tune.

cajun911 01-05-2011 09:01 PM

So, any good RB coming out of college for next years draft?

spkb25 01-05-2011 09:42 PM

Reggie Bush- Earn your money!

spkb25 01-05-2011 09:50 PM

Sometimes when a team loses players the others players play harder. Lets hope this lights a fire.

Im with you, Reggie, its time to prove to the NFL that your legit. We believed in you, believe in us and just do it.

Rueben Mayes 01-05-2011 10:13 PM

Bah
 
Leave!!!

Believe!!!

Faith!!!

Believe Y'all!!

Ashley 01-05-2011 10:31 PM

i think i might have to go on IR myself, after this post season. my nerves, my liver, i can't take this much more

QBREES9 01-05-2011 11:04 PM

Yeah i heard about this when I was at work sux really bad for PT and the Saints.

subguy 01-06-2011 12:48 AM

Not how any of us wanted us to go into the playoffs...I am a little surprised to see how many are worried considering how many feel Reggie is such a major contributor.

darstep 01-06-2011 12:46 PM

I hope PT and Ivory are able to get back to full strength and these things don't become continuing nagging problems that plague their career.
