It's not who you play, it's when you play 'em.

If Taysom Hill starts, at some point in the game if it's close the Saints will likely try a sweep/throwback to him as they have played him at receiver. Hopefully Norton will have his defense ready for it.

OK ..here come the "we got outcoached posts" Mon morning. Payton has been talking that dude up big time. now he had a chance to play him. This is not going to be an easy game.

Well none of our games are easy but this one will be a little less difficult than most in my opinion

The guy hasn't played a full football game in almost 4 years and he's coming in and playing in front of the twelves.

Brees being out takes one of the presumed top 2 down a notch or 3 in the NFC. The NFC West is tough so far 3 2-0 teams and the young QB in 01-1 Cards land has some flash. S.F has Sherm a 72-34 point for and against, LA is the defending NFC Champions is 2-0 and has Aaron Donald. NOt to mention Cowboys, Eagles, Bears, Packers, Vikings all have pretty legit reasons they could contend. Only 6 make the playoffs.

What stinks is they have had a week to put in the gadget collegeish Tim Tebow plays!

notes
Jazz released

The Seahawks released Ferguson and quarterback Cardale Jones off the practice squad to added two players at spots where the Seahawks have some injuries, bringing back offensive lineman Elijah Nkansah and signing safety Adrian Colbert.

First-round pick L.J. Collier played 16 snaps Sunday in his first NFL game and didn’t record a stat.

Carroll said the snaps were about what was expected considering Collier missed the preseason with a sprained ankle. Carroll said Collier is still making up ground in learning the team’s system.

“We will get him more (snaps) as the early part of the season goes on,’’ Carroll said. “He’s going to have a real upside now. He’s just getting going, he’s so far behind. So we’re approaching it like that.’’

Carroll said again that the team expects defensive end Ziggy Ansah to play Sunday against New Orleans, assuming he makes it through the week with no setbacks. Ansah was listed as a full participant in practice.

“He’s really champing at the bit to get out on the field, so we’ll see how it goes,’’ Carroll said.

Defensive tackle Poona Ford is also expecting to practice this week with an eye toward playing Sunday. Ford was listed as limited.
