Appears he and Cam Jordan are good friends by Twitter. Cam certainly doesn't get along with Jr.


They definitely are especially their families. I’ve seen both guys with their families plenty of times at the Harahan AMC theater.

Changing terms and welching on a bet that you yourself laid out

You’re point of contention is now the guy opposite of Jordan would get 11, when okafor was getting 80% of the snaps there before injury and pacing 7 sacks. You’re not getting there if he’s healthy. And it’s not really an indictment on okafor, he played a good 2 way end. He’s just not the pass rusher you thought

I hope bonethug doesn't honor the bet since he's a legitimately good poster that contributes a lot to this board.

The only person that can let him out of the bet is Gyno. Not the board’s call.

To be fair, if he was on pace for 7 sacks, Kikaha would have made up the other 3-4.

He should have taken the injury clause, but look at it this way.

The opposite of Cam Jordan are:
Okafor-Kikaha-Hendrickson-Johnson
4.5-4.0-2.0-2.5

Jordan: 904 snaps (92.72%)

Opposite:
Okafor: 486 snaps
Kikaha: 208 snaps
Hendrickson: 282 snaps
Johnson: 68 snaps
Total: 1044 snaps

bonethug should pay $25 to Kamara’s Charity that is buying cleats for inner city kids if he wants to stick around

Anyone that hitched to Kikaha staying healthy is a fool

I'm still posting so yeah.

I'm not going to honor a bet surrounded by bullshite circumstances. Sue me.

Just thought I'd humor the situation a bit.

It's not that serious brah, just enjoy the Saints ride so far

As far as Kikaha, hopefully it's just a 2-3 week type injury and they just felt the need to go ahead and IR him. Hopefully he comes back ready for OTAs. The ACL injury from last year, players can come back and play the next year, but I've heard from many people that it usually takes 2 years to get back "right" prior to injury. Hopefully next year he can get back to his rookie form, only with much more experience.

ETA: I'd probably keep Kikaha the frick away from OTAs and minicamp even if healthy

Hell throw some of Hendrickson's snaps to the snaps Jordan was on the bench for and split his sacks to 1 per side, it still equals 12 sacks from the opposite DE spot.

I may not have been explicit with what I meant when I made the bet, but part of the point was we'd get good production from the other DE spot and we did. Double digit sacks from both sides is something we haven't had since JG left.

Edit:
Going back and doing the math Jordan missed about 70 snaps, so only a quarter of Hendrickson snaps.

There's also about 70 extra snaps between those guys vs. how many we've played, but most of that can be attributed to Hendrickson playing some DT and Kik playing some LB.
