I think Saints can do that too! Thank you too, Bro!

I don't wanna rain on parades here, but BOLTS what do you think the thought process was in SD on grabbing Meach. He's an awesome reciever, true but now it's like SD has a bunch of #2 recievers and no go to guy. If Rivers has has to put the ball in tight coverage he's gonna struggle. Just wondering, BTW it still was an awesome signing for you guys, I think you overpaid a little though!!!!

A part of me hated to see Jackson go but I think the money saved was spent very wisely. Meachum and Royal can really help spread the field as Floyd and Gates have always had great hands. I also think that Vincent Brown has potential to gain that super star status that Jackson had as well. Besides, when we won seven games without Jackson in 2010

With that said... when the Patsies won three titles, they didn't have any high profile receivers. They had a solid team in all areas. That's what it takes.
