We are a 12-point favorite. If we lose this game, God help the rest of our season. We are 5-1 but our offense not clicking just doesn't sit right with me.

Hate being a negative nancy, but this is a game we should win going away if we are truly a top 5 NFL team--with or without Jimmy.

Spreading the ball around should always be a option JG or no.
And I highly doubt its been anyones plan just where Brees has been going.
Its never a good thing to sit your best weapon.
If he's healthy to practice friday then play him. Someone asked a good question about Tanner. Lance is out and Tanner is on the practice squad? Then what the hell is he good for?

Without context, no it's next. In season, yes it is. You trade one game to make it more likely he'll be effective for the rest.

If he's cleared to play then he plays. I'm not saving sh!t. Every game counts.
If the medical staff says he's good then he plays.
Unless its a sports hernia. Then he's dead.

If we cant beat the bills at home coming off a bye, I have little expectations for this team; no matter who we have tight end. I'm more concerned with the o-line. Buffalo has an excellent front seven. Hopefully, evans and strief are healthy. Id like to see a lot of I-formation with Collins leading for Robinson.

A lot of people are blaming Brees for targeting Graham too much; but honestly, other than Stills using his speed, our receivers just aren't getting open. Not having Moore as our slot receiver has really hurt the offense. If he were here, Stills could be allowed to stretch the field and open things up for us. Colston is aging and not really competing on 1-on-1's this year. Toon still needs a lot of development - I think he will be a viable Colston replacement in a year or two.

As for Graham being out on Sunday, it's never a good thing for your best player to be injured. Period.

We haven't been able to run on anyone this year.

Also, you guys are blind as hell if you think Brees is targeting Graham too much. The WRs are mediocre at best this year. Colston is a shell of what he use to be and shouldn't even exist so far this season.

Colston has been a bit quite this year. The game is afoot.
