What Worries Me the Most....

Face it, this team is not going anywhere without our good hands team. Hopefully Shockey or Graham is ready to play. Plus Shockey is the key to the running game and pass blocking.

The good news is the Colston was full in practice. Shockey was still limited.

We need one of the TE's in there, because its obvious Tory Humphrey is not a catching TE, all he can do is block.
If a couple of guys can't go, expect Arrington to be in the slot alot more and get many more Reps.
I expect Payton to call a couple of Runs from the shotgun, with a RB next to brees, Reggie does that well.
I hope Joique Bell can get afew up the middle runs, nothing special, keep it simple for his first couple of days with us.

Don't want Colston to get hurt during practice like PT!! Save him for the game! Arrington will have to do what he did last week and more. Shockey, good for a few plays hopefully. Miss his attitude. Maybe he shouldn't have cut his hair.

Maybe he should try a different barber. No not Tiki or Rhonde.

MARION Barber would be refreshing right about now...

I think that Graham is the only one who doesnt play Sat. 12,85, and 88 will be out there.

Don't be surprised if some of these same starters don't play against Seattle.

It's S E A T T L E ...

Not saying the Saints should look past them, but they'll need to be at full strength to get past round 2.

Nahh man it is a great point.. they have 7 wins. they're not that good. Anyone can win, but if we don't turn the ball over we should win.

I really don't think there can be any excuses if we lose this game
