New Orleans Saints Week 4 Pregame: Colston Travels to Jacksonville

Attached Thumbnails · 10-01-2011, 11:40 AM

This Sunday sees the New Orleans Saints traveling again, this time to sunny Jacksonville Florida, to take on a team where DC Gregg Williams used to coach under the nickname of “G-Money” once upon a time. Their first road trip of the 2011 season was on opening day when they went up to play the current World Champion Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field and took on their first, and only, loss this season. Weeks 2 and 3 had them staying at home where they easily took care of business over the Chicago Bears, followed by a much more challenging matchup with the Houston Texans. Hopefully, this road trip will be a much more pleasant one than the first of this year to the not-so Frozen Tundra in week 1.

Let’s take a look at the latest injury reports from both teams enterring this particular contest on Sunday afternoon on the shores of the St. Johns River at EverBank Field in Jacksonville.

Gregg William's I think deep,deep down wants this game to be a statement game. I hope he makes a statement the rest of the year. Make the statement Gregg, make it for all of us to see.............!!!!!!!!!!!

I still think Colston will likely not play in this game. He is a decoy for the Jags' defense to have to think about, and plan for. Our receiver corps has been more than adequate against the Bears, and especially against the Texans.

While the Saints want to work Colston back into the equation, it is likely they will not need him against Jacksonville. Keeping him out this week will give Marcus extra time to heal.

Commish I Hope you are right. I just dont see 3 weeks being eniugh time for him to heal properly. I am hoping the game goes so well for us that we do NOT need to play Colston!
