Thats been going on all season by media and fans of other teams.

In their minds they believe we still have Williams who is suspended, we got a bunch of players on defense that is suspended (which only hurts us with Will Smith being gone for 4 games), they believe we got worse by letting Nicks and Meachem go (Meachem I dunno about, but Grubbs replaces Nicks).

Theirs plenty more, but that is pretty much what everyone believes.

They believe our HC being gone will hurt us, if it does or not, I dont know, I mean they had no problems replacing HCs down in Indy or Pittsburgh within the last 5 years did they?

Truthfully, I'm not sure that losing Smith for the first 4 games will hurt drastically. From what I've seen from Wilson and Galette, I'm not real worried about it...

possibly.

Since we moving to a Zone defense, guys like Galette in particular may take up every bit of slack.

Me either.

The Saints managed ok without him when he served his last 4 game suspension for the StarCaps deal.

It would be nice to have him for the Packer game, but the Saints will win this one without him!!
