I said he wouldn’t be on the roster this season if we would have had another 7-9 season. Fortunately we didn’t and the team as a whole looks to have a very high ceiling. If we went 7-9 last year he would not be here right now.

I just paid the $20 because around mid season when it was obvious we wouldn’t go 7-9 you started whining about how I never put the 7-9 caveat in the deal.

I bet you another $20 that Merideth doesn’t start 8 games.

You got it. And by starting it means he is the primary slot receiver in at least 8 games. Not that he is in on the first play with only an x and y out there.

It should also be on the Saints. If he gets traded he'll become garbage time Hurns on another team.

Is there some sort of obsession of wanting a promising, young Saints player to fail? Remember he's on our team.

It's how he rolls.

I don't see the rush.

Beastmode · 08-29-2018, 06:23 PM

Wanting someone to fail and facing reality are two different things. 3 PS games, can't get open, no catches only drops. He's not ready. I don't know when he will be but it won't be week 1. If you think he is then that is your opinion. There is no evidence to support your opinion but you are entitled to it. Do we have the luxury of letting him remain on the active roster collecting dust? I don't know but I doubt it if it goes on for weeks. We already have a RB doing that so that's two dead weights as of today.

Well ...

2 catches, 72 yards and a TD (nice double move on a repaired knee) last night. Cam's confidence is building.

Not surprised on the effort. He'll be money in the slot & help this team hoist another Lombardi.

Continue to doubt Meredith if you want.

Don't doubt his ability. I saw him in that putrid Bears offense. He just doesn't need to rush back from his injury for this offense to click...we have so much firepower in the run & pass game already. He showed more confidence in his body last night than I've seen the previous 3 games.

They'd be wise to pitchcount him early this season & to keep those stooges from Oeschner's away from him.

Beastmode · 08-31-2018, 10:23 AM

He had 3 PS games with ziltch and drops. Totally missing the point and turning this into some quasi hate for him mew....he looked good last night. Was he wide open against backups? Yes. Is he gaining confidence? Yes. Should he be brought back slowly? Yes. Slow is fast fast is slow.
