What's this going to do to OUR TEAM?

The storm isn't over yet. There will probably be player suspensions.

You deal with Unions much? Vilma maybe. Nobody else gets anything.

I liked the NFL better when Tebow was still a Bronco

I like your thought process, and you are probably somewhat correct insofar as how we prepare to handle this, but you have to admit it's not that simple. The ripple effect for this is going to be big. Don't make it out like it's no biggy, cuz it is.....

I HATE Goodell!!!

Payton is next years head coach of Dallas. I think Payton is done here. I dont think he will get fired but I think he will leave.

Well... if we take the league by storm and take it deep into the playoffs, would it really matter?

saintfan · 03-21-2012, 04:14 PM

I think all of you guys in the "we'll be just fine" camp are SEVERELY underestimating Sean's value to this team...SEVERELY...

and I hope you're right and I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure I'm right...

papz · 03-21-2012, 04:18 PM

I don't look at it that way one bit and I'm in that "we'll be just fine camp". I'm just confident on how well run our organization is ran and the quality of coaches that we have on staff to help us make the transition. No doubt about it that losing Payton is going to hurt us... he's one of the brightest offensive minds in the game. But he put together a great staff to help him and they're still here... and I do expect Payton's suspension to be reduced.

We'll get by... just like we did last year with Carmichael and Brees running the show. It'll be harder, but we'll be fine. Keep the faith.

I always read, but never post... This is the one question I had.

Does the team react by folding it up or do they put this on their shoulder pads and DARE the rest of the NFL to beat them.

Would player suspensions on defense give the OC the chance to forget PUNTING and just go for it... Hold the ball and don't give the other team a chance. Defense would have to stand up, but would possibly limit their time on the field.

Risks would be getting offensive players injured at a higher rate, but with the correct roster moves it could get interesting

Anyone like to see 8,000 passing yards in a season...

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