In addition, Kelvin Benjamin was limited with his knee injury but more interestingly

Saints RB Mark Ingram was absent from practice Thursday. It's unclear why since he didn't appear on the injury report Wednesday. Today's injury report will be released later in the afternoon. Also not participating in Thursday's practice: LT Terron Armstead, DE Paul Kruger, LB Dannell Ellerbe, CB Delvin Breaux and S Erik Harris. Harris will likely officially go on injured reserve later today.

they honestly didn't do THAT bad against TB. 

Worley did well except for the TD where he got smoked on Evans' double move but on that play, Kurt blitzed and got pancaked easily so he was basically negated from the play. If no blitz, he's back there in coverage and it likely isn't completed. Hard to expect any corner not to get beat in that situation 1 on 1 vs. a great WR in Evans, let alone a 3rd round rookie. Sanchez was decent in his limited snaps though I'm still worried about him trying to tackle a running back that got to the second level. Fortunately for him last game their run game was shut down by the time he came in. McClain was absolutely horrible that game and has been all year. He was Godfrey bad. We really need Bradberry back, he's actually been a top 10-15 corner this year when he's played. Shut down Diggs, played solid against Thomas and was a beast against the Niners (though of course it was Gabbert and some sh*tty WRs). Let up a couple catches to Julio before getting hurt but was no where near as bad against him as Bene or McClain, mainly Bene. If Bradberry played that whole game we may have won.

Worley got pooped on all day, Winston's accuracy just sucks.

I don't know about all day, but there were several other plays that come right to the top of my mind where Evans got behind Worley and Winston just missed him.  Winston certainly wasn't sharp.  In fact, DA was probably more accurate for the most part but made a back breakingly bad decision on the goal line pick and the fumble was a killer too.

There were a ton of plays where he rolled out andn just missed open players.  Brees will not miss like that.  We gotta get the mole early and Armstead being out would be excellent.

oh god , whorely and sanchez need to step up

Don't worry teddy's got this.He'll finally make 1 (the only 1 EVER) play that makes you think "hmmm, maybe this guy isn't the biggest waste of jizz on the planet", then , on the very next play, run over his own punt returner to cause a turn over. wait...that was last week.

    • Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.  
    • Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.
    • Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
