Re: Injuries happen
 

Our offense has always survived the injury bug. Credit Brees for that. Defense is another story. So many injuries in the backfield year in and year out for 4 years isn't just happenstance. Somebody is doing something wrong with that position group.

That being said this thread is just silly. Way to early to worry about any of that. Don't worry I'm sure your fantasy football stats are safe. Relax and take a deep breath and quit posting asinine things.

It is part of the game why the bench has to be deep

WTF????

Re: Injuries happen
 

Lol. Ok. I understand if we have an injury at a critical position, but that's like running thru life saying "what if?".

Bottom line is that you can't just lose your **** because of a possibility. Injuries are part of the game man. And there's little doubt in my mind that Payton will have someone ready to step up. Man you weren't around for the days when this offense ran like a well oiled machine without big name receivers. I know it was before Payton (and probably before you as well), but do you think Joe Horn was awesome before he came to NOLA? Hell I think he was cut by multiple teams. There was Willie Jackson, Poole, Floyd and so on. Dude Colston was a 7th round draft pick out of a school that no longer has a football program.

Hell look at Lance Moore and even Willie Snead. The list goes on and on.

The Saints, especially under Payton, always have WRs ready to jump in and catch passes from Brees.

Would I freak out if Thomas got hurt? Of course. But I have more confidence in this program and it's development of WRs then any other before it, and there were some good ones.

Cooks is in New England now. Get over it! Not like we traded Jerry Rice or Randy Moss.

I wish your realistic self would go ahead and go cheer for another team....

Will(insert team name here)81 is crying ... ME - ME - ME!

Why come up with stupid stuff like this? Attention?

He doesn't cheer for the Saints. He cheers for individual players that put up stats. He already made a post saying he was done with the Saints because Brees and a couple other guys weren't giving him the stats he needed for fantasy. He said "I only started watching the Saints because of the stats their offense puts up"
I think that should be a bannable offense. Send him back to SR.

Re: Injuries happen
 

The only saint I had on my fantasy team last year was Thomas. Yes it's way too early but not when you realize a Thomas injury leaves our offense up to Snead, Ginn, Coleman, and Fleener to keep a offense churning out 30 ppg. They scare no one and that would make it hard for the running game. Did you see this offense in 2014 when Cooks went down? It was putrid. Yes we had oline problems but we only had Graham and Stills at productive levels. This cannot be ignored until TC. I am hoping for Decker.

Colston was elite though. Had he played for LSU or Bama he would have been a first rounder.
