His agent and Loomis decided on 12 as the magic number- I am sure they factored in injuries and every other factor. If we win and Clev wins, then yes, JG should sit. He's nowhere near 100%. The player's assoc can b**** all they want, but they won't have a case.

Now SP seems to be a stat guy- he has left Ingram in late in games to get him to 100. and we all remember Drew still throwing when we were up 30 against Atl on MNF.

If JG does play vs TB, and I was TB's coach, I'd let Gallete get 1 just to screw the Saints out of 6.5 mill

12 sacks to earn another $6.5mm.

Anyone else hear "personal goals" as an issue?

Of course, it being structured as a 2016 roster bonus, he has to be on the team in 2016 to collect.


Oh, and I find this intersting...
it’s also worth pointing out that his 2015 cap figure will be greatly reduced in the spring. Right now he’s scheduled to count $15.45 million against the Saints’ 2015 cap because of a guaranteed $12.5 million roster bonus. But that will almost certainly be converted into a signing bonus and spread out over the final five years of his deal, which will drop his 2015 cap hit to $5.45 million.

Well there's 10 million knocked off our 2015 cap problems.

And Cam Jordan has done what exactly this season? He hasn't rushed the passer or stopped the run. At least Junior hasn't mailed it in this year.

This contract is exactly the reason any read option quarterback makes it to the Hall of Fame - Galette too focused on the sack.

No read option QB will make it to the HOF. Their careers would never be long enough and their numbers suck.

Isn't this the definition of bounty? I mean... someone might get hurt.

My point is that the bounty-gate was ridiculous. No one got hurt.
