Kenny Vaccaro Placed on IR

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I know in real life this will never happen, but perhaps shortening the preseason to 3 games and regular season to 14 could be a solution. Several teams, including the Saints, look rather sluggish lately. Guys are just too beat ...

Yep, we'll be fine. We have good depth with Bush, Bell & Banjo.

I'm more concerned about our depth at LB. Losing Klein will hurt.

Re: Kenny Vaccaro Placed on IR

So let me get this straight.

An injury this year makes you forget that KV has only avoided the bust label because everyone on this defense not wearing 94 has been garbage, coached by garbage, for years.

Hell yeah then!

Sign him to a huge deal now before every other team looking for a slow, dim witted, undisciplined penalty machine comes to town to break the bank!

This whole, he got hurt, so now we rewrite history to portray him as a hero crap is asinine.

I’m not as concerned about losing Vaccaro. If it is his last season I hope it ends with a championship

Nope. Not just you. It is more of his usually gibberish.

Losing Vaccaro will definitely have an impact. You kinda have to take the good with bad with him, penalty wise, but there is more good.

NFL has played a 16 game season since 1978, for years with no BYE, and had a lower injury frequency then than what it is now...

In fact, orthopedic medicine has advanced light years ahead of where it was since 1978 prolonging, saving careers...

Totally support the precautions with the head injuries and long term CTE effects; baffled though with NFL money, they can't come up with helmet technology...

But since the players decided via the CBA to get soft in the off-season, you've seen this pussification of the league up and down...

With the revenue that's there, the players should get their due, but not if they don't play - no play, no pay for the big three sports...

Eliminate guaranteed monies, no more dead cap money, and you'll see the game get tougher, and the players will follow suit...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: Kenny Vaccaro Placed on IR

yay!!!, glad they are taking his injury seriously. but to be honest, his penalty problems were established well before the injury bug i believe.



hope he heals well though
