There's no reason for Brees to hit the field. Save that slot for another position so that someone else can get less reps.

SFIAH

I never said I was in favor of it, and my bet has nothing to do with smart strategic moves. Some here might argue that Sean Payton on occasion does the exact opposite of that. Remember Taysom Hill's floater into the endzone against Pittsburgh?

When your opponent knows all of the same smart strategies that you do, the only thing that's unexpected is the truly unexpected.

We are talking about the man that went with an onside kick after 1/2 time for the Super Bowl are we not?

I can’t believe anybody thought there was any chance of Brees playing.

ChrisXVI · 12-28-2018, 06:21 PM

He’ll probably have his Matt Flynn moment and cash in.

Come on, Homer Simpson was better than Flynn....Teddy’s gonna be just fine, wouldn’t surprise me if he landed somewhere with a real opportunity to play.

Let the bidding begin! Kick ass Teddy

We're Ready for Teddy, plus Cam is out too.

Lead early
Sneak Drew in for one play
Chip Luke Kuechly so he doesn't try to twist his leg (ala Kamara) causing injury

I'm hoping he does well, but, it looks like half the O-line will be out, as well as some other starters, so, this is basically a pre-season game. Have to take this performance with a grain of salt.

Different tone than the Falcons board, that's for sure.
