Saints were lucky on the hit Brees took

I don't think it was close to a concussion as it was whiplash or sprang neck. At one point look like he was going to try and rib his head off.

The way the league is about head injuries, I could see the refs 'erring' on the side of caution and make the Saints sit Drew out for a play.

It would serve 2 purposes:

1. It would virtually guarantee the Saints would lose;

2. The league could claim they were putting player safety over the outcome of the game.
