How is Eli - not a peep from a Saints injury report ?

I imagine if it was real bad we would have heard by now
hoping it is minor and he can safely rest up past the bye
guy was balling it on the field too

FA WRs Sanders, Sanu gone - and to competitors

rather than being aggressive on our biggest long term need - wide receiver

(short term case like AJ Green could be enough to fight off good defenses down the season - jettison the contract next year)

now we are tied up taking a look at old has been Panther's cbs

Unfortunate injury for sure but you’re mistaken to correlate it with MT’s play. What about Ginn dropping a TD? Or Lutz missing a FG? Or what Cam Jordan had for breakfast?

So much anxiety...

Pats and Niners OVERPAID for their trades. It’s clear the front office isn’t willing to give that much compensation for a role player WR. Sit tight. I’ll bet you we find the right player

not anxious

Thomas covers the ball - the defense isn't out on the field for Apple to get hurt

Thomas + another good veteran WR = more spread out - less double teamed pass coverage
