Tillman and Star "Really good possibility of playing this week"

Rivera didn't seem overly concerned about Star after the game, especially since there was a 10 day break before this Sunday.  All the beat writers seem to think Peanut's expectation for coming back and the team's are different.  I would think you would have to err on the side of caution given Tillman's age, injury history, and where we are in the year.  A Week 13 game against a reeling Saints team is not worth risking an injury that could reaggrevate something and keep him out the rest of the year and the playoffs.

I hope Tillman isn't rushing back...reports of the severity of his injury seem to contradict what his feelings about the injury are. I'd rather he take another few weeks to get fully healthy for the playoffs rather than rush back.

I'm not sure there have been any real reports of any thing more severe. It just seems to be speculation. They said he was close to practicing last week and now he is practicing. That doesn't seem terribly severe.

Bene is playing great. Not worried about Peanut. Star on the other hand

Bene is playing great.  Bene's replacement?  That is worrisome b/c it seems to be easy pickings.  I would imagine as bad as NO is that is a matchup Brees should have a field day with.  Shorter throws to the slot also help negate some of the pass rush. 

Hopefully Ron can scheme something up.  Jones simply can't play man coverage on those slot guys.  Gonna need to run some heavier zone stuff IMO and take Jones out of it.

Don't know how much Finnegan will play this Sunday, but that's why we brought him in cuz teams have attacked us in the slot. Even Bene was struggling when he played in the slot. Since Bene moved outside Colin Jones has been getting punked

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      Nope Still missing it. Let's try this a different way... You have two quarterbacks from schools that ran the same kind of offense - maybe even two from the same school - on a given team (not necessarily the Panthers). One is designated the starter while the other is named the backup. Why?

      yeah, pretty sure boss.....when things match and fit in the NFL.....the results then show it.  and when they don't, well, the results show that as well.  Bryce doesn't fit.   *but I get why late season and wants to argue with everyone Mr. Scot has also turned into a please don't talk to me about stats guy as well.  Given, the stats that reflect offensive productivity work against all your present arguments.

      Yeeeah...stats and rankings have zero to do with a discussion of scheme and skill set match. Maybe look up definitions of style vs ability and see if that helps. At this point, you've basically had three different people explain to you where you're wrong, but rather than addressing any of those statements, you're just resorting to straight deflection.  You don't get it. Either that or you're acting like you don't get it so that you can avoid the discussion because it's not going well for you. (that wouldn't surprise me either) 😄 Sme result either way, I suppose.
