| With Amie Just Did you know that humans typically have 24 ribs? Well, with that fun fact in mind... Drew Brees told ESPN's Ed Werder that he has ELEVEN fractured ribs. For those keeping track at home, almost half of his ribs are broken. Brees was placed on the injured reserve Friday, and so Sunday will mark just the eighth start he has missed in 25 years due to injury. I run through the preceding seven. Starting in his place will be Taysom Hill. He hasn't thrown a touchdown pass since his college days. Rod Walker caught up with the man on the other side of that Rod also opines on how this upcoming game could give Saints fans a glimpse, for better or for worse, into the future. Plus, the safety who collided with Tre'Quan Smith was fined $!5,000. The defensive end who hit Drew Brees was not. Catch up on everything we've written this week in advance of the Saints' first game this season without Drew Brees. — Amie |
