New Orleans Saints running back Pierre Thomas speaks about injury against 49ers

papz · 03-30-2012, 10:51 AM

"I'm great. Ankle's all good. Body's feeling good. Head's feeling good," Thomas said. "A lot of people keep asking me about the injury form the San Francisco game. It was a freak accident. I put my head down, he put his head down, at the same time we collided. I was knocked out. There was nothing I could do about it. That's how the game goes. I didn't see the guy, and then at the last second, I put my head down, and he caught me with a good one. I'm moving forward looking toward next season.

Freak accident my ass! P.T. did put his head down, but the 40-whiner speared with his helmet purposely. Where was Goodell when that happened?!

Tat is how I saw it. Helmet to head butt.
Perfectly legal there, but not all of the time. I remember we squashed that to death after that game.
Head butts should never be legal at no time.

Definitely a 'BOUNTY" hit by the 49er player and not called. That being said, Pierre has been knocked out of 2 of the last 3 playoff games and even the season before. He's got a history of injury that we may need to address before this season.

Man that was a tough one to watch. Glad to see your doing OK.

That hit was metaphorical for the air being let out of our season.
