I mean Armstead is a fantastic player and our offense is so much better when he's available, but some stats don't lie and these are from NFL.com/players;

6 year career

96 regular season games in 6 years, Armstead was a starter for 82 of them.
60 appearances


22 missed games is a rather high amount considering Brees has missed like 3 games in 13 years, 2 for rest and 1 due to injury.

Big red zone target. Exactly what we needed. I hope we bring Dez Bryant back too.

Re: Saints Signing TE Jared Cook!

Imagine an offense that could deploy Michael Thomas, Dez Bryant, TreQuan/Ted Ginn, Jared Cook and Kamara all on the field at once, would be nice to watch!

Let's hope Brees' arm is still up to it, age seemed to catch up with him late last season.

IF all these guys pan out Brees age won’t show much. I still think he had an injury they were keeping quiet. He was playing angry the first half of the season. I saw him take a few chances with his body last year that hadn’t seen in the past. He wanted it bad and was really putting himself out there.
Our offensive line injuries didn’t help his game much either. I’m not making apologies but the drop off was pretty sudden and started just about the time Armstead went down. After Armstead the rest of the line started getting beat up .

I think you may be right and I think I know when it happened. He was never quite right after this Thanksgiving game.


Watch the massive hit Brees takes on the INT return.

I remember wincing waiting for him to get up when I saw that. There was also a pretty good lick he took on a QB sneak. I forget who it was against. Still made the TD though. I thought it was Hill for a split second because of the way he punched it in.

Re: Saints Signing TE Jared Cook!

The Patriots way is usually the right way, and if they wanted Jared Cook... I have to think it’s a good move for us.
