Son of a.... that really hurts man... damnit

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

This is getting ridiculous. Snake bit is an understatement. Time to get Finnergen(sp?) back and activate Moore.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Yep. Get Moore in here and call Fin. We ain't gonna go in with the two rookies are we? **** man. Breaux is done for the season.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

The rookies are going to be tested early and often.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

So we may have lost 4 of our top 5 CBs before the end of game 1.

If I'm PJ Williams I'm taking out a bigger insurance policy this week

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Time to sign Cortland or Keenan, most likely Cortland since the bad break up tween Allen & Lewis

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

If true... Season is over, lower your expectations and be ready to have the same team/record as the last two years...

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Our DBs heading into 2016 looked awesome

Keenan Lewis
Delvin Breaux
Damian Swann
PJ Williams
Kyle Wilson

Now we may have only one left? Seriously?

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

now can we trade for some quality

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

We also need a beast on the defensive line. The second half Carr had 10 seconds to throw too many times

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

The one player I felt like we absolutely couldn't afford to lose on defense.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

You ain't lied. Seems like every year we have one position where everyone gets hurt. I remember one playoff year, played Minnesota I believe, where we lost our top 5 rbs. Not sure there will be room for GG on the practice squad much longer. Gotta stock up on cb's.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

At this rate, we'll be looking to draft a CB with our first pick in the 2017 draft.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Yeah.... That's going to suck....

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Three quarters with Breaux, 140 yards, 10 points
Without him, 25 Points in one quarter

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Im willing to send him my fibula if he can play. I think hes that important

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

I want to put my head in a oven. This is unbelievable

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

I hate the NFL roster rules. For cripes sakes baseball teams in September have bigger rosters!

It's not just us either - they just said the Colts finished the game with only 5 healthy corners.

But the NFL won't do anything because people won't get their padded fantasy stats if teams were actually allowed to have depth.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Like I mentioned in the Game Day thread... Next week we go against a QB who threw 6 TD's against us last season WITH Breaux! Can't wait to see Crawley go up against OBJ.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Cruz and Odell were very good today and I agree, without a decent pass rush it's gonna be tough sledding next week.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Agreed. The defensive line is doing nothing to help the secondary. The Raiders lost two O-linemen today, and still no pressure from our defense.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

SD also looks pretty good...
Be ready for an 0-4 start, doesn't get any easier either.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Can we give Crawley a chance before writing him off? He was thrown in there and had no time to gameplan for that matchup.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Who is writing Crawley off? He's simply not ready to start at this level. I'd have Cortland, insert Sterling Moore as starters and PJ in the slot. Harris would be my #4.

Cutting Finnegan for cap reasons was an error IMO. He certainly could have helped us today.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Crawley is a good cover corner but he isn't aggressive enough to be a starter or back up. He need to build his strength and become a aggressive tackler

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Who all besides Breaux and I assume Lewis?

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

I only count 3: DB40, Lewis and Wilson. All 3 were projected to be our starters. Pretty brutal, but seems to be the norm with this team. We have been snake bite since 2012.

Edit: just remembered about Swann, so that is 4 and each of them project to be active game day players. We went from being stacked with DBs to having none in a matter of weeks.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

I was also counting on Kyle Wilson this year too.

Speaking of former JETS ...Recent cut Dee Milliner is looking for a new home.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

I think Cadet or Murphy about to be cut in order to re-signning Cortland

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Growing pains I can handle. Mid evil drawn and quartered is a bit much. grrrr

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Yeah, this does sux

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Keenan Lewis????

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

What about Bell? I thought he could play corner? At least that was what was said after the draft.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

And you know this just by watching his first game on an NFL team? You do realize he has never played before right? How can u draw up an assumption that he is a good corner?

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Bum hip. I believe he is done. Can't help us while he continues to battle pre existing injuries.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Hopefully we can get Sterling Moore up to speed quickly, I like our chances better with him than with Crawley. Finnegan will be signed againagain (tee hee..) and we'll at least have some experience out there. PJ had some good moments today and I think as the season progresses he'll continue to get better. That all being said, the pass rush was the only unit that completely missed week one. Let's hope they get the memo and show up for the next 15, because that's what will make or break the defense, with or without Breaux.

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Spiller was a healthy scratch, why? as I said, possible trade?

And Breaux could be headed to IR with this fracture which means only one of either Breaux, Rankins or Hau'oli is coming back this season...

Unless there's more to the medicals than released, putting Hau'oli on the 6 week PUP was a waste of that slot that could've been used on Rankins...

Re: Rumor- Delvin Breaux Broken Fibula
 

Finnegan has to be back with the team like today, if Lewis has anything left it's time for him and Allen to kiss and makeup. But none of it will matter if the Saints cannot generate a pass rush. How in the world do they not get to the QB with an offensive line as beat up as Oakland's?
