That is EXACTLY what I have been thinking. It might help/improve Payton's play calling. Not that it was bad before, but I think it can go both ways. Thank god the next two teams we play have not won a game. Then again...It's a trap... Lol, I think we blow the Dolt's, and the Lamb's out personally.

I believe at the start of the 2nd quarter there might be a few issues because the scripted plays will be done so Payton will have to start calling more plays based on the situation but i believe they will figure it out.

I've actually thought about this quite a bit. I see the good and the bad with it.

Like Strato mentioned earlier, I actually think it will help him because he will be able to see the field and the defenses better. He will be able to have some looks from there where he can really see whats going on and be able to call plays accordingly.

With that in mind, I don't believe his absence from the sideline will make a huge impact on timeouts and/or the rythem of the offense. I do, however, think that his absence will effect the psychological aspect of some of his players like Drew Brees and/or some of the assistant coaches. There is no doubt in my mind that Brees is enough of a competitor and a professional to be able to handle it. There may be a slight dip in confidence by the team (and fans as well) if we get into a shootout and it comes down to the 4th quarter final game winning drive.

Personally, I think this game will be a coming out party for the Saints. I'm not nervous. Drew is pissed about last weeks performance and will come out and shred the Indy defense. The run game will be good and the defense will get after the quarterback.

Yeah but I really don't think old Curtis can do the Job. Bring in Orlovsky !

There is no advantages. Seeing the field, he can see that on the jumbo screen. The sooner he is able to get on his feet the better but I think it will be a while. Hope they can rally and get through it.

Maybe I used the wrong word. It wasn't so arguing; more like a heated debate lol.

Probably will mandate a more complete gameplan from the start. It will allow Coach Payton to make better adjustments on the fly in play calling. Will hurt if the game is close and in the 2 minute offense. Drew should have more control of the playcalling this week in those situations.
