Seems like a brutal injury to come back from and start slinging the rock a ton. Seems like a ton of kamara handoffs ,no? I doubt they'd bring him back if he was limited throwing and had to hand off all game. I think when he comes back you can trust him as much as before Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Eaglesflyhigh11 450 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 This could be a great spot to put him back into our lineups in a super shootout Quote Link to post Share on other sites
codyodea 351 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 The fear is he is one hit away from leaving the game or that Hill spells him a bunch and gets a bunch of packages. Do you think they would suit Brees up if he's one hit away? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

herschel 1,986 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Hill will still be used. Probably more now that pre Brees injury. Can’t see starting him outside of 2 qb leagues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
codyodea 351 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 What are the odds Brees is healthy enough to throw the ball 25-30 times and finish the game? Seems like he wouldn't be starting if those things weren't probable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trilly 246 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I unfortunately have to roll with him, and I'm nervous as hell about it re: his snaps and ability to finish the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Same situation here...[...] I can't imagine Payton would green light Brees if there was any real concern about his injury...eager to see these two offenses go at it.

Tua had to throw it what...like 45 times to keep up with Mahomes? Brees has an opportunity here to have a huge game. I'm in the playoffs and am going to gamble on starting him over the likes of someone like...Cousins. Most of us who had Brees early in the season are probably starting a risky QB anyway. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heisenburg23 26 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) Starting brees over rivers— I’ll gamble higher ceiling over safer floor in the playoffs ! Also have Hurts but worried his floor much lower. Edited December 18, 2020 by Heisenburg23 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vendetta 528 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Why trot him out with MT out? Have to imagine their chances of winning are really slim. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heisenburg23 26 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 MT out I’m back to Hurts over Brees then Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Teeze334 2 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Chiefs are giving up 348 ypg to opponents since week 9. Plus Brees stats were pretty good weeks 1 thru 8 when Thomas was out. I'm trying to convince myself to start him over Wilson.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chippa 1,340 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Anyone think he’s gonna defy expectations and absolutely ball out? People are skeptical with him, but it wouldn’t surprise me if he put up 30 points Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dislimb 1,379 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Seems like a Kamara game to me. 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
codyodea 351 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Ok. The ribs and lung made it through a whole game and he even threw it 30 plus times. He started to click in the second half. How are we feeling about him next week against the Vikings? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fantasymad 377 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 No one to really throw the ball to and he had 3 TDs. I think he has a good game against Vikes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
codyodea 351 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 He took a good shot to the ribs as well. Kept playing. Thought that was a great sign. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
USWAY 364 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Thought it was clear the Saints made the right decision to bring him back, even though they lost. He was no worse for the wear, and as a very timing reliant QB it was good to allow him to shake the rust off prior to the playoffs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trilly 246 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Other than hating that they sub in Hill at the goal line (bc I have both Brees and Kamara), I agree that he has a solid setup this week. My biggest worry last week was re-injury and it looks like he made it out unscathed so I'm rolling with him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fantasymad 377 Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I have a sneaky suspicion that Brees has a big game today. Even without MT and Smith. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
