If he comes back this quick we may have to have him checked for wires instead of blood.

Saints' Colston credits oxygen-rich cocoon for quick healing

METAIRIE, La. – Saints receiver Marques Colston has one message for any injury that attempts to bring him down – don’t mess with him.

Using mind of matter and a bit of new-age technology, New Orleans’ big-bodied receiver said injuries alone can’t bring him down.

“I don’t let my body heal; I heal my body,” Colston said Thursday. “It’s kind of an aggressive approach I take and it has worked well for me over the years.”

Doesn't (or didn't) Sharper use one of the oxygen coffins too? I need to get me one.

From 4 weeks out to 2? I don't get that...

however many snaps he gets, i see a big Ingram run while the jags are chasing our WR's

T.O. used one of those hyper-baric chamber things when he broke his leg playing for philly

I wonder if he could use mind over matter and make himself faster. LOL. Just kidding Mr. Colston. I like you just the way you are.

Damn he is like Wolverine. I just hope Colston is 100% and is ready to go. I can see coach just getting him acclimated again and not over using him.

I do not understand the rush, seems to me Saints have been o.k. so far. If he is o.k. fine,but if not one good hit could set him back a lot longer than 4 weeks. guess we'll find out Sunday..

Its against an AFC team give him rest, this offense is clicking so why rush him back. If he's going to suit up give Colston a few plays and then get him out of there

I totally understand his perspective, as a player you always HATE to miss games due to injury and will do most whatever it takes to get back. The man is a fierce competitor and you can't compete on the sidelines.

	Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege. All little common sense goes a long way.
