Thanks bro, I don't even respond to him anymore. Been days since I have even responded to him.

on what might be an insight to teams needs, one only needs to use that sinking feeling with each story on the bum-o-meter deep in a fans gut.

The quality of depth at DT about to proven right or wrong.
Hate to have DT forced on us as key need in 2018. I have it on my list but to be forced into it? grrrrr

OT is a wait and see. We drafted two first round OT and have a tried and true long tooth vet set to go. this will answer the peat question once and for all.

Can the rookie jump in at LG and shock the world if Peat is at LT?
I think he can handle it. What a huge plus this would be

Will the saints be forced to run the ball more till our starter returns?
Running the ball more early on, might do this team some good in the long run.

OC seems to be the biggest concern for me at this point for the needs wish list in 2018. no questions in my book, huge need

Re: Saints dealing with some difficult situations
 

You haven't responded because you know you falsely accused me multiple times of first saying we would be weaker without Fairley and then saying we would be better or the same without him. You then obviously went back and saw that was not what I said at all, yet wouldn't admit the fact when I questioned you about it. That's what pissed me off.

I'l take your lack of response as acceptance of that fact.

Lots of questions and few certainties. Absolutely. The injuries add more questions than anything. Have to hope we come through camp and preseason without anymore significant injuries.

There's also that ignore button in the user cp. I've only used it once, but it's made being here so much more enjoyable for everyone. It saves my pissed-offedness for the national political scene plus I also don't have to scroll through so many pointless posts to get to Forever's and Smash's posts anymore.

Pissed-offedness. Now there's a great word. I thought I was the only one who used it!

Re: Saints dealing with some difficult situations
 

Being forced to draft another DT/NT might not be a bad thing, I wanted to let Fairley walk and draft one this draft. I'm all about preventative measures. Depth at both front lines being key. I don't think even with Fairley we were stout enough up front, our middle stayed exposed, even with as much as Allen likes to blitz we got gashed. It's going to get interesting with Armstead and I agree about running the ball more since we got Peterson. Fleener will be key this season, never thought I have to put faith in that guy? He didn't impress me any last season, everytime Brees threw him the ball last season I cringed.How good would Hankins be looking right now?

The hell you say! I copyrighted it! There's a one Turbodog surcharge every time you say it sir!

Re: Saints dealing with some difficult situations
 

I don't like to harp on the past however on paper I think we have the pieces in place in the secondary to carry a defense. Circle back to that 2009 - 2010 Saints team ... I don't believe we had dominate guys up front however that secondary was nasty. Sharper, Porter, Gay, Harper & Greer (all very good players). Don't sleep on the "new guys" ... Lattimore, Breaux, Marcus Williams & PJ. I still believe there is more than one way to skin a cat ;).

Bring it.
