Reeves hurts hand in practice

Well if he cant play against Oakland I dont know if i'd want him to have his first live game action against the Cardinals stud WRs...

Would've been better to PUP Reeves and have a contributor on the active roster the first 6 games rather than constantly saying he's "day to day" after he missed the target date of week 2.

A one handed Reeves is better than a no hands close enough to do any good/no eyes even looking at/not even thinking of covering/and I sure has hell can't tackle Bennett.
LOL, yeah come to think of it.....it's not like this team runs press coverage so why the hell does Reeves need two healthy hands for anyway. :)

Wow, if someone told me that people would be crying out because Jacques Reeves hurt his hand in practice, I'd tell them they were crazy

180 degree turnaround is complete from 1 year ago in this forum regarding Reeves and Bennett.
Not for me!

I saw improvement in Reeves late last year, but he's still a questionable starter.

I saw Bennett in nickel situation, unproven as a starter, and therefore even more questionable as a starter.

I never bought into the notion that our rookies will be enough especially early in the season.

I wanted them to get another guy in the draft or free agency, but they didn't.

Therefore, we still need another marginal body out there.
And now, we don't even have that! :gun:

yeah me too LOL

with the way our coverage has been of backing off of receivers and not much bump and run, I don't know how much an impact he would have made (I know kubiak said it would change )

BUENO!
Look at it this way. Sooner or later we're going to find a team with a WR that's so bad even Bennett can cover him. The Oakland Raiders just might be that team!

I mean, we don't know. It could happen. Couldn't it? He can't lose every match up on the schedule.

With this defense, our gameplan must be for the offense to score 100 points, because that's the only hope we've got!

not sure DB, as fast as we score, the defense gives it up faster..

my gameplan

we kick off. they score, then we use the rest of the half for our drive (15+ minutes) ...then we are 7-7 at half
we get the ball at half and go on a 30 minute drive and we win 14-7..

no worries :splits:

It is obvious,Sir, that you have a high fever and would benefit greatly from 2 aspirin, some bedrest and ice to your testicles.:tiphat:

"We're trying to get (CB) Jacques Reeves more reps but he got a finger hurt in warm-ups so we'll deal with that right now."

.....

Hurt a finger during warm-ups? :headhurts:

A finger? He hurt a finger??

Just tape it to the next finger and get on the field and play!

Someone needs to point out that crooked-ass finger on Torry Holt's hand to Reeves and tell him we need him out there.

I seem to remember a QB for the Saints playing with a cast on his non-throwing arm. And several defensive players with casts on arms and hands - not that long ago. (well - it might have been 20-30 yrs ago when Archie Manning played - I have slept since then)

It just seems like a scratch, or a couple of stitches or a bruse keeps these namby-pamby players on the sidelines nowadays.

Where are the men - you know the REAL men?

Tough guys can often be mean guys. And we certainly do not want to take a chance with mean guys on this team.

That has to be up there with the all-time freak injuries. I don't see how he comes back next week.

What kind of warmup exercises do we do?
Ripping bones out of fingers for stretching?

Hmm, maybe he flipped Mario off and Mario wasn't havin any of it.

Seriously though, it's been a rough time for Reeves. Hopefully he'a able to heal quickly. We need him in a bad way......wow, did I just say that?!

LOL!

The thing is Reeves can hardly afford the down time.
He might become too rusty when he finally comes back, and that doesn't bode well for the D's outlook.
