I don't mind them throwing when they are down at the goal line honestly, because the Saints have a pretty high success rate passing there. But I think Brees needs to be reigned in some times. Obviously, he is a great passer, but when you are playing against professional athletes at this level you can't become predictable, no matter how good you are. I don't think he has the restraint that a Peyton Manning has to audible into a running play as often as he should, and I don't think there is the will on the coaching side to force him to do it right now. When the Saints get closer to a balanced offense, they seem to win, when they don't, it's like 2007 or this year.

I honestly don't know why they wouldn't just dump the ball to Sproles on a screen every play until someone stops it, which amazingly no one ever seems to be able to do.

Someone on the Chiefs just killed themselves at Arrowhead! WTF!

No name on who, but they apparently shot their girlfriend and then drove to the facility and killed themselves.

 

[Darth Madden]

Holy cow.... why in the hell can't people who are going to do that start with themselves and not kill girlfriends / spouses first.

 

[ProgMatinee]

Just saw that. Saw speculation it was someone named Jovan Belcher and he did it in front of the team and coaches. How do you cope with seeing that let alone play? God bless the team and families.

I saw that on ESPN's ticker when I came home. Wtf

It was Belcher.

Wondering how this will impact the game tomorrow.

From the sound of things, they are playing on

It was Javon Belcher who had been one of the starting LB. He I guess shot his GF infront of his mother at their home then drove to Arrowhead Practice Facility and shot himself infront of gm and coach.

They had an infant child too. God bless that baby without parents now.

Reading what they have on ESPN is he didnt shoot himself in front of coach or GM.

Belcher thanked general manager Scott Pioli and coach Romeo Crennel before shooting himself in the parking lot of the team's practice facility, police spokesman Darin Snapp said. Police had locked it down by midmorning and reporters were confined to the street just outside the gates

 

[The Josh]

Well, they're reporting on the local news that he did. I'm going to trust my local news than espn.

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

I've read that he was talking with Pioli and Crennel in the parking lot and when the cops started walking up, he walked away and pulled the trigger.

 

[The Josh]

From what the local news is reporting they saw him pull the trigger.

What a stupid ****ing sentiment. A person, period, kills themselves every single day, not just veterans.

Anyone just see the guy in Miami stands in full uniform including pads? WTF?
