I hadn't even heard this. What BS. Just ban celebrations of any kind and get it over with.

Tony Gonzalez dunked for 15 years and no one had a problem. He retires, now they ban it. WTF

He should probably quit gator arming and learn how to block. That would help a lot.

I didn't see him block for drew once in any of those gifs. Drew, our best ever qb, who got hit more last season than any other season in his career.

Why would we leave our best receiving threat into pass block?

Nope. Your right. JG didn't block for Drew one damn time in those. Seldom does I reckon.

Jesus. He never leaves the games after taking shots to the head. No way was he concussion free after that game. I remember a few in the Dome too

Also, lets not act like Talib shut Graham down 1-1. They gave him a lot of inside help all game

He's a WR. They don't block for QBs

I think we can all agree that Jimmy is a stud TE, makes some great catches and at times will drag a DB 30 yards for a TD. He can also alligator arm a few balls when he sees a hit coming. A lot of receivers do. He's no better or worse in that regard.

I've never understood the short-arming a ball when a hit is coming. You're getting hit either way. Catch the damn ball

I was at RJS and the Bucs fans around me were livid at that penalty. Like laser eyes angry. I was pretty timid when I said "you really..........don't get why there was a flag thrown?"

I felt the same way about the reaction to the Brooks hit on Brees. I didn't even panic after that play, because I knew it was a penalty right away.

I was shocked that people were so mad about it. "He hit his chest." Ok.

That one was bad too. I told this one guy to look at the big screen and tell me it wasn't to his head. He just rolled his eyes.


That was fun.

It was mostly to his neck. The rule says a "forceful blow to the head or neck area."

He made what should have been one of the top clutch plays in Saints history vs. SF in the division game against SF when he got shut down for 103 yards and 2 touchdowns.

He should have known that the defense couldn't hold the lead for 1 minute. That selfish Graham, always scoring touchdowns






6 throws. 1 catch. 8 yards.

now theres 40 million reasons why thats unacceptable going forward.

I like this very much. So refreshing from the rest of the Saints players that don't want to help bring us another trophy.

I'm extremely happy for Jimmy to get paid after a few great seasons and a rather rough upbringing

this isnt Graham's fault, but Brees relies on him way too much at times. i would like to see the stat on Brees' INTs last season where he was trying to force it to Graham. Whenever Brees was in trouble he would toss it up to Graham, even when he was well covered, resulting in a pick.
