After this loss, we need Brees to play vs KC right away no matter what.

I think we need him back for KC right away.
Even 85-90 percent healthy. Anything less sit him.

There is to much on the line rn. We need the one seed badly. Hate to say but potentially having to go in to lambeau in that time of weather the saints will struggle. Or even let the Seahawks jump you.
Saints have played pretty poorly in cold wintery weather games. May not result in losses but they have struggled.
Like the bears game for example.

I think you need Brees to suit up for KC and it’s a must at this point.

What do y’all think?

I think we need to play Winston if Brees isn't able to play. Hill won't be able to put up enough points to keep up with KC. Sean Payton is too conservative with his play calling with Hill in the game. I don't think he completely trusts Hill. He can't afford to be conservative against KC. Play Winston and put Hill back into his original role where he's best at with keeping the defense guessing.

Why play brees? He’s not 100% and could risk reinjury. KC is going to be in the super bowl so why give them our best film? The one seed is out the window after the Eagles loss

Lol no. He should not be on that field unless healed and 100% healthy. Saints losing that game no matter what. I'm worried about him even playing against Minnesota. Our oline play has been garbage. If he gets re-injured in an unwinnable game the season is over.

I think giving up all those run yard and 6pts in missed FGs against the Eagles in clear 58 degree conditions had nothing to to with Drew Brees or Cold Weather.

Packers are not losing the rest of the year. What keeps us as the second seed?

Derrick Henry vs a terrible run defense. They can definitely lose that game.

Path to Superbowl is now likely

Cardinals @ Saints
Seahawks @ Saints

Then..
I could see Bucks beating Rams and GB (already did) and coming to NO for the NFC

Not saying I expect the Packers to lose again, but we just lost to the Eagles and the Steelers just lost to Washington. The other teams are full of professionals as well, and any team can beat any team each week.

The fact that he was not dressed out on the sidelines in Philly tells me he most likely is out next weekend. If he were able to play at all in Philly in a reserve role to knock off rust or spark the offense, he would have been dressed out. One week isn't going to heal him that much that he will start against KC. I think he probably doesn't play until the last game of the season to get timing back for the playoffs.

How many 100% healthy games does anyone play? Unless high risk of re injury, put him out there

He wasn’t playing in a reserve role. If he can play he is in and in full time.

We weren’t supposed to lose yesterday. You chase the wins and let the rest shake out however it will.

Exactly. Fans need to not be so shortsighted. Guess what, good teams play badly and lose. Don't believe me, look at every NFC record right now.

How many people predicted us to go 14-2 this year?

You dont force your QB with 11 cracked ribs to play early to win a game. You save those must wins for playoffs.

I would take the L before I forced Brees out there too early. This is a bad take. An injured Brees probably ain’t beating the chiefs anyway

It doesn’t matter what seed we are as much as having Brees healthy for the playoffs. That’s the top priority imo regardless what happens in regular season. If he’s healthy, sure play him. But if not he shouldn’t be playing against the best team in the league
