I guess they are trying to see if Bucky's injuries will heal on their own. LVD prolly needs the knife, maybe Goedeke. Winfield seems slow. McCollum needs to get some plays on the board. Just normal stuff.
Bucky's injuries still seem to be an issue.
LVD obviously needs surgery on that knee. And he needs to retire. They're being tight lipped on Goedeke. AWJ, looking back, hasn't been right since the playoff game in Detroit last January. McCollum always seems to be a step or 2 too late or always diving at some ball carriers feet.
Kind of wish we could bench our starters for this game given how dirty and filthy the saints org is. I really don't want Egbuka's knee taken out intentionally like Godwin did.
We're paying the price for a half-measure taken by The Union 160 years ago.
Has all the makings of a “trap” game. But this year has been different with these type of games so far for us. Will we keep wining the games we should?
Trap game or not, this game is an issue. The Saints staff will lock in on our weaknesses revealed in film study. Additionally, I see our guys moving into desperation mode and actually trying too hard. What looked like a total gimme has become a potential season changing nightmare. I hope not but my gut tells me we really need to find a way to win this one, while avoiding any more fucking injuries.

Detroit was the trap. The obvious L. Because this one is “in the bag.” It’s a mentality I had hoped didn’t impact this team because they’re “different,” but it’s not easy to drown out the noise. MVP talks. #1 in power rankings. That performance in Detroit was as predictable as death and taxes.
