The Official Eating Crow About Taysom Thread

[The Dude]

It feels like 2009 in that I think we have a SB roster. Great players where we need them plus a veteran DB who doesn’t date rape and players like Harris, CGJ, Granderson to add that extra oomph.. The D isn’t as opportunistic as 2009’s D but the way we are getting pressure is just as special. Dare I say this could be it?

This upcoming game vs Denver is at Mile High. Might not be a huge thing but isn't the altitude a factor also?

Forecast is calling for Clear and 38 F so cool but not anything that the Saints can't handle.

Denver will be no cake walk.

By the way, let Brees heal up. There are no guarantees he'll be back at it in a couple of weeks. His body needs time to heal properly.

You guys think Brees stays home to heal up? I don't. But I would stay home. Flying in and out of Mile High doesn't seem... comfortable.

I've had broken ribs. I had burst blood vessels in my brain doing all I could just to stifle a cough.

I want Brees back as soon as possible if it prevents us from losing a game. He'll return when it is deemed he is ready to return. If it is in three weeks after missing three games then fantastic. It means he's ready. My wishing he's back by then isn't endangering him, because what I want and what you want have no bearing on the decision whatsoever. If he is ready to return then he should return.

The injuries where the majority of the fractures occurred is said to have been on the left side and have already had an additional week to heal. The lung isn't an issue at all. It should be completely healed in two weeks according to what I have been told. There's nothing wrong with being optimistic. Brees has proven that he can recover from injuries in a shorter timeframe than most. There's no reason for me not to expect the same once again.

When Brees the Medical staff his doctors and coaching staff ... when they all agree he is healed and ready and can effect the game plan without limitations ... Brees will be on the field.

Here's hoping that's against the Eagles in week 14! I believe it will be.

Folks concerned about the altitude, don't forget Taysom played at BYU, Utah, he knows altitude...

Just kidding... I thought there was no possible way that he could be an NFL QB and he looked incredible today! I mean seriously, what did I just watch?! This is going to work guys.

Yep.....guilty here as well. There was no way I expected Taysom to start against the Falcons and I thought Sean was nuts when he announced it! I am pleased to admit I was wrong. Soooo wrong!
