Not gonna lie, I wouldn't mind him sitting out through the bye.

I'd rather him sit out until after the bye-week, too. Although the Cardinals have looked semi-decent as of late.

I wouldn't play him until Atlanta, especially when we win today.

Yeah. I’m not sure why this is important. Let him go full in practice with the red jersey.

Maybe put him in later in the game against the cards if we need it to secure the win. Otherwise, bench.

unless jay glazer said it, it means nothing. That was always kind of the hope

How bout we see how Teddy does today first. I wonder if Drew has been practicing with his left hand ?

We don’t need him for the Cards. Let him sit.

frick that. Let him play when he’s ready. Nothing is guaranteed and home field advantage is extremely valuable.

If he has green light from doctors, play the man. U can’t just drop games left and right to get healthy. U armchair coaches are dumb AF.

Yep Green Bay and SF continuing to win has me nervous. If he’s ready to go let him. Especially if Kamara and Cook will still be out.

If anything might be better to give it a go knowing you have two weeks of recovery after in case something unexpected happens.

He needs a warm up game and to readjust timing with the offense. Imagine catching trash passes front Teddy then going back to tight spirals with Brees and being led with the ball.

If we win today there is absolutely no reason to have him play in that game except possible to a few snaps throw a few passes in a live game. 1 or 2 first downs worth of one series to a TD max. And I wouldn’t even do that of it were up to me.

Because couch coaches know what’s best regardless of what Brees, the doctors, and the coaches say.

Sounds like the commentators even said the same thing that I said.

They also added that Brees didn't sound as definitive that he'd be ready for the Cardinals, and that CSP would make the decision around Wednesday.

Erin Andrews suggested he might be used as a backup.
