I do not know when they issue the first injury report in a short week...

any word on why Hawthorne left early?

thoughts on Goodwin, Robinson, Knox?
We might need fresh legs on Thur

Re: Injuries
 

A bit off subject but I always stood up for Roman Harper whilst he was here

That being said, we could exploit a mismatch running Jimmy against him, I hope we run more deep routes with cooks aswell.

Re: Injuries
 

I'm willing to bet that Payton thought that same thing on the day the powder puff blue team signed Harper.

I stick up for Harper too. He was excellent in the run game and rushing the passer, he just sucked in coverage. We might as well take advantage of that too. And when he's covering Graham, he's not at the line in run support, where he's at his best.

Re: Injuries
 

If the panthers Head coach leaves Harper one on one on Jimmy in his dream one time he should be fired on the spot.

Re: Injuries
 

Apparently Williams will play.

Re: Injuries
 

Goodwin injury is a blessing in disguise. Lelito is the better player period. He makes the line better.

We need to go into Carolina with the same power run game between the tackles. You can't get to the edge on those guys, their linebackers are just too fast. We just need to go right at them, soften them up a little bit and then attack those terrible safeties.

Re: Injuries
 

I'm okay despite accounts to the contrary. I'll be good to go come Thursday night.

Re: Injuries
 

This is exactly what I was coming into this thread to say. I love Goodwin and everything he's done for the Saints, but Lelito is playing awesome.

Re: Injuries
 

Even Collingsworth alluded to the fact that Lelito was a stronger blocker than Goodwin in the run game...

And Armstead is an absolute monster in blocking down field on screens.
