Same thing with chicago, even if they offense never gets straight (which weve seen they can do) the defense is so good they should be favored. Maybe, and i mean maybe, theyre favored against arizona but im not even sure about that. The az offense is legit and the saints d has not looked great. Without brees the saints have an averageish d (maybe slightly above) and on offense has weapons that excel in the short game where elite accuracy helps tremendously. The offense was built for brees, not bridgewater, thats not exactly groundbreaking news but we shouldnt assume that thomas will be a top 5ish wr with teddy and kamara a top 3-4 back. honestly i think its the longest of long shots to get 3 wins in the next 6, 1 win is way more likely to happen than them getting 3. This aged very poorly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raves Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I was going to come in here and call out GSU.. but he's having a hard enough time right now. But really surprising how well the Saints have been doing, even by my own expectations. But more to the topic, really glad to see Brees is already starting to throw. I think we should still keep him on the bench till at least after the bye week even if he thinks he's ready. We are playing well enough and don't need to rush him back and risk him injuring it again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep well aware of how it works and have taken my lumps when I've been wrong in the past. For example I was a person that thought Tevin Coleman would end up the best RB in his draft class, boy was I wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You implied I don't admit when I'm wrong, I used an example of a player we are both familiar with of me being wrong about on this forum.

I think that after the bye week is most likely, but Brees is a competitor and I don’t think there is any question he wants to get back before 6 weeks just to prove people wrong.

I picked him up cheap and stashed him on IR in my 1/2 pt PPR league since I've also got Thomas. I want the stack for the fantasy playoffs. Also gives me the opportunity, if I chose, to flip Lamar right before the trade deadline if Brees is back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the trends you'll see with the older QBs is that they lose arm strength as the season rolls into the later months By December, they lose something off their fast ball. So this injury/surgery means hundreds of throws he hasn't made this year, that might help in Dec/Jan. Plus he's getting A+ rehab... and not getting hit on Sundays 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 Brees was back at practice yesterday with no thumb brace. He's not making full force throws, but he's tossing the ball around a bit. More importantly he was seen doing some warm up drills with the ball. His thumb is healed well enough where he was out catching some passes in warmups, running wheel routes and stuff to the flats. The type of stuff he'd be doing on a trick play if he were ever to catch anything. I don't think it means they're practicing anything like that with him (though I wouldn't doubt it), he probably just wants to be part of the offensive rotation to stay fresh. But it's a good sign that he's out there catching passes with no thumb brace on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
