Last 3 Games

Payton will be back, and just imagine what he's been able to scheme up in an entire year off. Enjoy it while it lasts, Atlanta.

Start rotating defensive players in from all back up positions and have them get some game time and film.

I'm only saying bench Brees because we have an Investment in him. He gets 60 million Guaranteed and we need him to play for that kind of money. He gets hurt in any of these last 3 games I bet everyone will be crying about why he was in on meaningless games. I don't really care about the rest of the team, They need the reps. Might as well Run Ingram 20 to 30 times a game to see what he can do as a feature back.

I don't remember such talk n '07 or '08!!!

The Saints are playing through the NFL's version of Sudden Death.

I am kinda surprised Goodell didn't suspend a trainer and waterboy for good measure!!

I guarantee you that if ANY of the other 31 teams had to play under the conditions the Saints did, they wouldn't have done half as well!!

Well said. We've got a chance to finish .500 after a horrendous start and it's like most have forgotten the predicament Goodell put us in. I was one who felt we would be ok but I, like some, underestimated the loss of Sean. I just hope Sean comes back next year pissed off and coaches like a man possessed and gets the team to play like a team possessed and reeks havoc on the league. Oh yea, and if the falcons think they are going to get past the likes of the 9'ers, Giants, or even the Seahawks in the playoffs...well let's just say I see another early exit for the dirty birds and ole skid britches.

I think I've said it before, but I would keep playing and everyone and try to play spoiler vs Dallas and Tampa. The last game versus Carolina, I'd be okay with resting Brees and some of the top line guys if that's what the Saints want to do.

SaintsBro · 12-10-2012, 05:41 AM

Does anyone who has actual season tickets and goes to the actual games, do any of them want to bench Brees if he's healthy.

I kind of think I know where these threads are coming from.

It's a 'Catch-22'. In the end, I think you just play the guy because you've signed him to that big contract. I was gonna' say, "because the offense isn't the problem", but that was before the interceptions started.

Getting Payton back is Priority #1, that's for sure.

Mardigras9 · 12-10-2012, 10:00 AM

Benching Brees is not going to happen. They need to work him like pre-season and sit him later in the game. Give Chase some play time.

Besides, they have taken enough games off this year already. That's why we are in this mess.

Preach Brother...Preach!!!!!!

I like this guy.
