Making jokes about hurt opposing players is cool now? Be better, OP

He's been railing on Lattimore since the pick was made, looking for any reason to say it was a bad pick. Early returns show that it may have been the best pick this team has made in quite some time, which is despressing in it's own right.

Lattimore might be the slimmest CB in the NFL, and I think that might have something to do with all the injury prone comments from fans.

Injury prone comments come because of his hammy issues in college. I wass actually somewhat surprised by his size when he got here. A lot thicker than I expected. Especially in the legs.

That's unfortunate. I want to play (and beat) the Saints with everyone healthy. 

i see people say this quite often, but i don't know why this is. it's rare that any team gets any other team at full strength. they certainly aren't getting us at full strength since olsen is going to be out. i'll take any advantage we can get to get that win because the final rankings and record won't be looking at who was on the field or on the sideline.

a win is a win.

Yup. I think people do it because it's the classy thing to say, but in reality, we look for any advantage our team can get. I don't hope for injuries, but they're part of the game. Beating the Panthers without Olsen counts the same as beating them with him in the record column. A wins a win.

Never cool to make jokes about hurt players. And Lattimore looks like a beast and a great pick up for you guys

I don't particularly care about beating teams at full strength. I just want to win. It sucks if Lattimore is out for you guys, but I'll take it. However, making jokes about players being injured is just dumb and immature .. Especially when injuries can hit any player on any team at anytime

The Saints are about to run into a freight train.... 

 

Both Ots out (the strength of their oline) one of the only two NFL caliber defenders they have out....

 

38-6 Panthers

Breaux as well. I believe Von Bell is in concussion protocol as well. He's the one who ran into Lattimore.

Geez...

When do you guys play the Failcants? I know they don't have Beasley for a while.

Not entirely sure. Carolina, Miami, Bye, Lions, Packers. I know those.

Bad thread.

The joke is about these guys not being able to find their ass with a funnel.  All offseason long they stated they needed a pass rusher and Barnett was the consensus ideal fit as a proven 3 year performer against elite competition yet they look the injury prone one year wonder because he was higher on Kiper's board (and COMPLETELY ignore DE despite the above comment!).  Ramczyk was injury prone (among other things) as well. There's a reason these guys fell.

It all starts with #1, if hes off we are gonna have some trouble no matter what defense we are playing.
