No question. This season is over. Anyone hurt shouldn’t be risked for a mop up game.

Personally Id shut down anyone of significant value and get less experience players reps. Even some of the star rookies. No need to play Brown, Chinn, Shaq, DJax, Burns, or even Obada.  No need to play DJ. Samuel you might want to let play just so he can boost his stock in the FA market...I wish we could retain Samuel though.

I want Chinn to keep playing to strengthen that DROY resume.  I have a feeling they’ll still give it to Young, even if Chinn has amazing games the next 2 weeks though.

It’s easy to tell the player and convince the coach if the player is injured but I don’t think they’ll just start shutting everyone down. In week 17, maybe you pull starters in the first half almost like a preseason game. CMC and Burns shouldn’t even dress. Risking any chance at not being ready for next or having future issues should be an instant shutdown considering we are officially out. You have to think that they also know about the draft position. Coaches and active players don’t play to lose but the GM/FO should be thinking about draft slot and protecting players when we are done.

I dont think they will either, but I certainly wouldnt mind it.

He was absolutely amazing yesterday.

Rhule & Snow were telling him before the last sack: "Go back in there and take him down" (Was trying to read their lips)

Burns goes in, and straight up gets the sack and give the chance for a comeback drive. 

This offense needs to come together this coming offseason.  Some new linemen, a TE and most importantly, a new dude throwing the ball.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
