It sucks the Panthers will not be able to capitalize on a season where Brees might be missing some games. 

Overall I still think the Saints will still win the division if Brees comes back. The NFC South is very weak behind them. But Bridgewater has not shown he can lead the Saints to victory, so the bottom feeders might hang around if Brees misses a lot of games.

Their fans getting scared now and the fear is showing.

"I just don’t think Teddy’s the guy. Super nice guy but he’s not the one to go w/. He’s lost a step and instinct plus the guys don’t seem to know how to play w/ him, they look confused, that’s why the penalties and he doesn’t help/get them in order. He looked bad in preseason and he looks bad now."

"Build some sort of trade value for TB. Ship him off with MT13 and start over"

The Saints got screwed out of a defensive TD - would have made that a very different game. 

Bridgewater isn’t good, but the Saints were still in that game. Taysom Hill might see some snaps at QB soon though.

To be fair the Rams got screwed out of a TD on a phantom call before that

These comments are because they lost Brees to injury not getting screwed out of a TD.

      I just mean it’s always offsetting in that situation.  I didn’t realize they called another penalty

      And as I asked this again before, what goes into PFF's man open %, as I know you've brought that stat up before. Is that just the number of routes he gets open at any point during the route, or is it calculated on targets and if he was open when the ball got to him. Because like I pointed out so many times in the lead up to the draft, a big reason it was harder for him to get separation against man was because he not only had his man on him, but he was double or triple teamed on the majority of his routes this past year.  Just because of that alone, it was easier for him to get open against zone coverage where he could find holes and sit in them. Also, again, as been discussed so many times, his QB's play this year was awful, and lots of times his contested catches were due to him not delivering the ball on time when T-Mac got open.  Or just times he got open but wasn't targeted for whatever reason. So just using that stat as a way to say he struggles to get open against man is more likely than not, disingenuous. Hell, it's a PFF stat that you're using against him, yet at the same time, PFF absolutely loves him, he was their 4th overall player.   I posted this clip on here a week or so ago of the T-Mac vs Hunter game in 2023, where the anti T-Mac guys like to say Hunter shut him down.  But numerous times in this video you see T-Mac create tons of separation from Hunter but the ball wasn't thrown his way, plus a clear PI that wasn't called (and the one that was). https://x.com/4MR_Fetti/status/1918262063660454227 The "he can't separate" narrative is way overblown and become something more myth than reality.  No, he's not an elite separator like some of the quick twitch WRs, but he's so much better than the haters here like to say.
