Fri Aug 27, 2004 --from FFMastermind.com

The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports Saints QB Aaron Brooks (right quad - out) will not play tonight against the Bears. DT/DE Willie Whitehead (right knee), MLB Cie Grant (left knee), and RB/KR Aaron Stecker (neck) may also sit out. Rookie FB Mike Karney (groin), who has missed most of the first two games because of a strained groin, will see action. On defense, HC Jim Haslett said the Saints will test their 3-4 package that features 6-3, 283-pound rookie DE Will Smith at outside linebacker.

that features 6-3, 283-pound rookie DE Will Smith at outside linebacker.

That, alone, is going to scare the hell out of some people. Too bad I\'ve gotta wait until Sunday to see the damn game.

Screw it- everyone head to Chicago, and let\'s make WhoDat\'s life a living hell :P

Man I gotta get my internet fixed at the house.
Having to wait to Monday morning is starting to really bug me.

Is the chat room any good?

Hey guys, SaintRob will have the game on a \"bit-torrent\" file. You can download the game and watch it. He usually has it up not too long after the game.

Danno you\'re probably aware of this. But if anyone is interested, PM me and I\'ll give ya the details.

Thanks Billy. I was referring to game time chat. I\'m lucky, I get the game tonight.

BTTT,
I wouldn\'t get too excited about the 3-4 tonight. Its new and probably has quite a few issues to resolve. it may look pretty ugly at first.

Man I wish we had Parcells, or Belichick, or Edwards, or Fox, or Reid, or Dungy, or Billick, or Vermeille, or Holmgren, or Shermann.

Oh well, we are what we are.... the Saints.

i really liked the 3-4 scheme, although smith needs a little bit more time in the film room to learn how to contain on certain plays... he bit quite often last night.

It appeared to work for a while until the Bear\'s adjusted and ran at us for 15 yards on a couple of plays. Anyone know why Leslie started ahead of Sully last night? Were they testing Leslie?
