I wish nothing but the best for Fairly, my frustration isn't pointed at him at all. But how does this even happen???!!!

definitely, front office holds some responsibility.

And if people want to claim we are better without him then there was no reason to sign him in the first place. Either way it comes back to the front office.

As I pointed out earlier, only the good Lord could have known that something new would arise after many years of the known existence of the condition.

I wonder if the Saints/NFL have the ability to arbitrate since Nick wasn't able to play a down? I would think the Saints FO and attorney's were smart enough to have some type of opt clause in his latest contract.

Anyway you slice it, this sucks

Just further evidence that the front office and Sean need to go. How many times are they gonna make same mistake.

Here we go with all the excuses to sheild them both from blame from the blind people who dont or WON'T see it. Ready 3 2 1.

Lmao! Dude back away from the cliff. Look I'm pissed about this too, but I don't think this justifies firing Sean Payton. I'm confident they didn't sign Fairley and think this was going to be an issue. Lol. Why don't you wait until after this season to determine if Payton needs the ax.

Shrimp only emerges from under his rock when he has an opportunity to rail at Payton.

Shrimp you can't really pay any attention to people posting on here and criticizing you. Those same people said we were weaker without NF and now since he will not play they say that we are no better or worse without him. If those seem like conflicting ideas that is because they are.

Exactly who and where did anyone say the Saints would be better without Fairley? I have read every post concerning Fairley and I haven't seen anyone imply that. It was hinted at concerning Armstead's absence, though.

I take up for the front office 99 percent of the time but I feel you on this one. We have to quit paying players to not play. This is getting ridiculous
