Vilma's knee injury is the most frightening. He's been playing on that injury for a few games now.

Not a bad idea, because the Colts the Saints will be facing this week are miles apart from the Colts with Manning calling the shots with an audible to the audible's audible... Dunbar would probably do a fine job with calling the audibles for the D in this game.

Keep your eye on the area of field just behind our linebackers this Sunday. It will get a lot of play.

Last year; running backs. This year; linebackers.

I'm a little concerned about Charlie Brown against Mathis and Freeney

These two need to be chipped, or only have 3-4 in the pattern with a TE and/or RB left to help pass protect

I just hope that the team is concerned as well (duh, I'm sure they are), and take the neccessary precautions and address it. This would be a blow to everyone's pyschy (organizational, players, fans, etc.) if we should come away with a loss in either of the next two games.

They should come into these games as if to make a statement. Not a "We have been rattled and now have to blow everyone out" statement, but a "No matter what happens we are focused on one goal, and we aren't going anywhere" statement.

Is it Sunday yet? I hate this waiting crap!!!!!!

He needs the kind of help we gave Bushrod in '09. His false starts are just killing me. I'm also hoping to see de la Puenta start. He gives us a little more push in the run game I believe.

I want to see the Vanilla Gorilla Charleston play. Players usually play well against their former team.

I've always liked Charleston anyway. He gets after it.
Dunbar has done a very good job covering for Vilma when he is out.
No drop-off in production at all.
Vilma seems slower to me. He was slow recovering from that groin thing last year.
I'm trying to identify a standout on our defense and coming up blank.
Harper would fit the bill except for his cover skills. We have nobody that's setting it off! ...So far.
Just can't give up yet. Somebody may awake out of sleep and then wake everybody else up.
