Yeah I looked for a thread didn’t look through that thread. He’s high enough profile a thread was going to show up eventually. Hell another one might anyways :sneaky:

A member asked for Kupp's injury status. I posted an article on it in that thread. It fits in this thread as well. End of story.

One of the things that has absolutely jumped out, is how much more explosive we are with Kupp. He is a beast, and it's a damn shame he got hurt the way he did. I, love Woods, and Cooks is great, but it's the three of them that make them so special. I don't know the impact of the other guys being out, but I do know the impact of Kupp being out. Get well soon, kid!

Williams had some nice catches in traffic last week. I expect him to get alittle more involved this week. Obviously not at the level of Kupp but as long as he does his job and contributes.

Reynolds needs to step up or we move on to the next guy.

After thinking Kupp was done for the season I'll let him have a few weeks off and be ok with it. We need that guy for the playoffs. It's all about getting to the playoffs as healthy as possible. If all of our key stars are there come playoff time we'll beat anyone.

I think we'll see even more Nick Williams. His redemption opportunity is NOW!

We need kupp as close to 100% as possible for the playoffs so if he has to miss the saints game then he may as well miss the Seahawks game so he can fuck up Kansas City in Mayheeco city.

An added plus would be that the saints would not have experienced the kupp effect in real time when we probably meet in the playoffs.

This is predicated on how the offense does against the packers. If a receiver steps up and shows he cam be at least a sufficient replacement in the super dome, AND, kupp needs the extra week, then save him for the chiefs game and beyond. Dont risk a setback if we're 8 and 0 and basically have the division locked up. Id rather see our big 3 healthy in the playoffs.

As much as we miss Kupp - save him until he is close to 100%. Everett and Reynolds - you get another chance to step up and make a name for yourselves!!

Jojo time!!!

No, I kid, I kid, I’d be too worried about Jojo getting smushed at WR.

Will be interesting to see who gets more reps, Reynolds or Williams? Seems like Hodge is 3rd in line behind those two as of now.

Reynolds forte in college was the long ball, but Cooks and Woods fit that bill quite well. Wonder if Williams fits Kupp’s role better—security blanket on intermediate routes.
