Anyone else feel like we're cursed again?

This sucks.

Yeah, the curse seems to be back in effect.

Re: BREAKING: Kikaha - torn ACL

Well, now you see why it's important for offense to get better.

One player out and we are done? If that was the case we would have been done anyway. Still time to find a quality player to take his spot for a year. Find a veteran for a year. Who knows how bad it is anyway. Players have come back from it in one season in the past

On a brighter note, Carolina lost their number 1 WR at this point and still made the Superbowl on a 15-1 regular season run.

Re: Kikaha - torn ACL

Pretty fair take on it from WalterFootball:

Saints DE/OLB Hau'oli Kikaha out for season (torn ACL): 7/10 Disaster Rating
When the Saints spent a second-round pick on Hau'oli Kikaha, it was widely considered a reach because of how injury-prone the Washington product was. Kikaha tore his ACL twice in college and was considered to be a major health risk. The Saints took a chance on Kikaha, but it appears as though that decision is backfiring because Kikaha tore his ACL a third time today.

New Orleans had big plans for Kikaha this year, as he was supposed to be one of its primary pass-rushers. The Saints will obviously have to look elsewhere now. Kikaha wasn't considered a great player - he was just OK as a rookie - and if this were some other player, the Disaster Grade would be much lower. However, I have to make it a 7/10 because of Kikaha's history. A third ACL tear could make it so Kikaha never reaches his potential, and it also shows that he's not as durable as the Saints were hoping he would become in the pros.
