Drew Brees to IR

RailBoss · 11-22-2020, 08:54 AM

One tough Cookie in my book playing as long as he did.

Drew Brees Has 11 Rib Fractures After Follow-Up Scans. Doctors are encouraged by his progress,
specifically improvement in lung function and the continued dissipation of his collapsed lung.

11 rib fractures and still lead 2 scoring drives, one with a passing TD.

Drew is old school, can't ever question his toughness.

Just an fyi ...

Larry Holder of the Athletic stated today on a radio show that the Saints are expecting Brees to realistically return in week 15.

By the way, week 15 is when the Chiefs/Patrick Mahommes come to town.

Timestamp starting at 8:55 on Brees ...

The Saints are looking at a Week 15 return for Drew Brees - Dianna Russini \| Get Up - YouTube

THey need to start Jameis now

Sean has his unique toy Taysom
And the media darlings love him

Winston has proven himself in this league
And needs the reps

If we are still a game ahead keep Drew out another week or two

Jameis came in suddenly in the SF game
Moved the ball when Sean allowed him to

Had some timing issues with Thomas
And threw away a goal line corner route to avoid a long pick 6
At 2:20

Please - bring in winston and the occasional Taysom

I’m not saying it is going to happen, but it would be some major trickeration if Payton started Jameis instead of Taysom after the Falcons spent all week prepping to play TH.

Sean has said that Taysom was always the 2nd in line, the only reason Jameis came in vs 49ers was because Sean didn't have the time to redesign the offense to fit Taysom within 15 minutes at half time.

Taysom isn't perfect at the moment, but we are 2-0 which is all we can ask for. Jameis is a turnover machine, always has been.

I think the Jameis ship has sailed one way or the other. Either the Saints and Jameis have a handshake agreement to give him a fair shot at being the starter next year (or whenever Brees retires), or Payton has already decided that he's riding with Hill. The old switcher-roo with Winston now just doesn't make any sense.

Never been a Jamis fan but I am naturally curious I would like to see what he could do in the Saints offense. But my lizard brain senses that if he were the better option he would be in the game so something from the coaching side has blocked that move. Overall not sure that either have made their case for the DB long term replacement.

Bottom line they are going with a conservative controlled approach doing everything possible to secure the #1 seeding.

Drew looked good going through his warmups yesterday in street clothes. Hell, he's a good looking man with a good looking family. Quality oozes out of that entire family. Even the children are well behaved.

Back on topic Drew looked good yesterday going through his progressions.
