In all fairness I'm intrigued to see what our possible future at QB would look like.

I'd like to see what our future QB looks like as well. I hope it isn't Grayson because he hasn't shown me crap.

You're calling the season done at week 3?

I don't agree. Atlanta and Carolina are not great teams. A 2 or even 3 game lead by those two teams is not that big of a lead at all.

I'd estimate we have a 60% shot at a playoff spot right now, even with Luke playing Sunday.

The 2nd half of our schedule looks pretty winnable.

McCown is no sham QB, he has put up some impressive stats on other teams and he is also older and wiser. Main thing, he can make all the throws which Brees could not do last week and it hurt us. It hurt us big time. There really is no excuse on offense now. He is a formidable QB than is healthy. Make the throws and we likely win the game. If that happened last week we likely win. I'm actually glad.. not that he's hurt, but that we are going with the best option to win instead of leaving him in there knowing he's C- at best.

just think, he played the game with that injury, no wonder his passes were so off. Could make the team play harder... we'll see

Brees is out and so is Evans.

We got nothing to lose.
I say we're going out there and Play Ball.
Stephone Anthony & the D.
C.J. Spiller & Khiry & only we know that Luke actually can play.

Im glad Drew is getting a chance to recover. This is the week to do it.

How sweet would it be to come away with a W vs. Carolina now?

Lets Rock.
