Maybe the injury did take away his effectiveness. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

I would agree with the stat portion, but to me, he just didn't play at a pro-bowl level. And maybe it was shoulder related but short-arming passes don't look good, hurt or not.

I understand he was hurt but he is not Brees. We should not have to sacrifice a season because he is not fully healthy. Since when did Graham become our key to winning? He still is nothing like Gronkowski.

What did I miss? Neither one did anything. Jahri couldn't handle bull rushes & jimmy hands were like stones

Keenan Lewis and Mark Ingram are the only 2 that gave it their all this year.

I guess not many TE and Guards put up better performances this year.

If I were Jimmy I would give my spot to Gates. I hear there is something in his contract though, that incentivizes making the pro-bowl.

Isn't Gates in the AFC?
