He was pretty amped when he thought he had the winning TD, so he's okay mentally. We need to find someone else to pick up 5-6 touches next week. Seems like Brees checks down to him way too often
There's really no other option at this point for the check down until Ingram returns.

Dude had 16 carries and like 15 catches...plus returns. Wayyyy tooooo much. We better figure out something else. SP was well aware of the MI suspension. No excuses

And your solution if we still want to win every game?

Solved it in the draft or off-season like the Saints should have. Not to injure one of our main weapons would be a start. I wouldn't excuse over using one of our stars to the point that he's going to get injured from fatigue.

The draft is over. What would your solution be today, with the current roster, if we want to win every game?

Is it any different than what is being employed so far?

Me, I would bring back Tate. Not expensive, I am sure we have a player that bounces back and forth off of the team. It would solve the issue we have atm.

That's the problem, they had advanced notice. That would be applicable if it was an injury vs a suspension they were aware of. So why didn't they solve it?

They did the best they could with cap and roster constraints. Could we hve done better?

Take out Williams and bring up Scott. He has to be better than the garbage we're putting out there aside from Kamara.
