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

      Lanoris Sellers = Cam lite?

      By jtm · Posted

      He needs to improve his progressions and not look to run every time his primary target is covered.  If he does, Sellers could be the number 1 overall pick.  If he doesn't, then he'll be a later round flier and the NFL is littered with running QBs that are so so at passing.

      I think Igo put a minimum post count on the TB to avoid trolls. Not sure what it is though.

      Why is everyone focused on BY while the real problem is ignored

      By Luciu5 · Posted

      The internet lacks any nuance. BY actually played good I'd say 90% of his snaps. I went back and watched every play. The 10% that was bad though, was REALLY bad. I'm hard pressed to put blame on him for everything though, like the 2nd int and the time where XL ran the wrong route and it looked like he just sailed the pass. I think I counted 3 or 4 bad throws in the game which were on BY. The fumble is 100% on him. That is like the exact same situation as in the Dallas game last year. Same with the first pick. He didn't see the safety, just like that Atlanta game. There were many passing yards lost due to drops. The Renfrow throw (50/50 Bryce imo but Renfrow had his hands on the ball), Tmac drop, and XL not getting his feet down. Those were all chunk plays. Bryce didn't play bad, just wasn't elite and when he made mistakes, they were colossal mistakes. Honestly, I think we should move on, I don't think he is IT, but too much blame for this game is going his way imo.
