Saints offensive lineman Andrus Peat didn’t have one of his best games yesterday.

There may have been a reason for it.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Peat had suffered a broken hand in the regular season finale against the Panthers, and had surgery during the bye week before the playoffs.

I played 4 games as a LT with a broken hand back in 2008. It hurts like something I can't describe when you try to hit a DL with a broken hand. makes it mighty tough to block.

Definitely affects your ability to punch.
No wonder he looked like crap.

Andrus must play better on Sunday. Cox/Ngata stole his lunch money.

He'll need better leverage against the likes of Suh/AD.

So will he be feeling worse or better this week? Any doctors around?

I'm a Freelance Gynecologist and here is my "Expert Opinion" that I know you are all "No Doubt" waiting for.

If he didn't make it worse, then it is possibly healing and may be getting a better.

If you see something other than a grapefruit, you are smarter than some people.

I'm no doctor but talking from my own experience I felt better and better for every week since the bone I broke continued healing. i had a lot of swelling to deal with and I would guess Peat does too. As long as you don't re-break it improves.

Gotta wonder... Is a one-handed Peat better than Cameron Tom?
