Brees has broken ribs, collapsed lung


top dawg

Recommended Posts

Their next 4 games are very winnable even with Crab legs or Taylor Hillsom in at QB. Brees may be able to get back to 100% before the playoffs, and while his injury could cost them the division, it may not be such a bad thing for them if he is 100% healthy and rested for that stretch run. I hope they go winless without him though, make them wish they still had Teddy...

Yikes. Can't stand Brees as our rival, but damn I don't wish that on anyone. No wonder he told Payton he couldn't go. The guy was practically dying.

Don't be shocked if Payton fixes Jameis' turnover issues. If he does, that's gonna suck. Talent isn't Winston's issue. Turnovers are.

I can't believe they let him stand on the sideline all game if they had any inkling of a collapsed lung. I don't believe he's taking another snap, its not worth it.

I guess we find out if Jameis Winston's issues were because he played for Tampa, or he is just bad.  If we do go up against Winston, his line will probably be three interceptions, 3 td's, and 4 drives for fg's.  

Winston's issues last night did not appear to be just because he played for TB. Perhaps it was because they were putting hill in every 3rd play though.

I think he'll be back for the playoffs but I won't be surprised if this cements his decision to retire after this season.

    • I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks. 
    • They both outstanding players and both had monster games against Jets.  We gonna need it again this week with the bills.  Go Panthers!!!!
    • Yeah okay fair enough.  Maybe the point is if you have a better system and players you can dumpster dive for a RB and if you don’t you have to shop top shelf. I dunno.    I would put my assets into the best OL I could get and let them make UDFA like Rico look like stars. As opposed to putting CMC behind a makeshift OL. And right now I don’t even remember who was on the OL when we took him, just sayin.
