If Freeney doesn't play at all in the big game, will anyone view a Saints' victory with an asterisk?

I know it is the NFL and injuries are common, but I was interested to hear what others thought.

I thought that McCoy going down in the MNC gave Alabama an unfair asterisk but I am not sure what I would think about Freeney.

Look, I hate the Saints as much as everybody else but no team is completely healthy this time of year. There's no asterisks on wins due to injuries.

As much as I hate the saints and never want to see them win a superbowl. No, there should definitely not be an asterisk.

This is a team sport. Injuries happen; people go down. The only reason there should ever be an asterisk is when there is a reasonable dispute in regards to the rules of the game. Such as: The refs admittedly blew a call that could have changed the outcome of the game, a player was caught cheating, a ref/player/coach bet on the game, a coaching staff was caught video taping hand signals during the game, etc.

Injuries are just a part of the game.

    • Outside of cerrato, I do like our draft overall. Hard to get can't miss draft picks when you pick late in the draft

    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
