Saints will be without 3 Defensive Starters On Sunday

ESPN - Saints' Harper, Gay, Fujita all will miss Sunday's game vs. Redskins - NFL (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3584263)

Missing a starting corner and safety...
Zorn needs to bomb away and try to exploit weak players.

Could this game be more handed to us. Really we need to win this one.

i know they say harper and gay are out, but i expect that too be a gametime type decision.

i wouldn't be worried about missing them too. gay isn't even a starter at cb, our two starters should be returning this week. so that's not really a issue. and if harper misses the game then last seasons starting safety josh bullocks will come in and do a decent job, and then theres chris reis who is a very solid undrafted rookie from last season. he led the defense in the preseason.

fujita is the one i'm worried about, special teams ace troy evans will be playing in his position. evans didn't play last week cuz he was injured, so i don't know whats up with that.

Too bad it's not someone on that Saints dline. They have some freaks on that unit. Hope we can take advantage of these injuries. They have four starters out.

who's the four?

New Orleans Saints - Saints List 7 Players Out for Sunday (http://www.neworleanssaints.com/Articles/2008/9/Saints%20List%207%20Players%20Out%20for%20Sunday.a spx)

ooo, alright. i didn't know you were talking about the o also. anways, again gay started last week but he isn't a starting cb. he plays the dime.

mm and young are the starters.

Fujita is a huge scratch. He is the smartest player on that defense and one of the most underrated players in the league.

What effect do you think the weather (hot, very humid, high around 90 game time, hotter on the field) will have on the Skins, especially playing a team from Bayou country?

J-Dawg

we have that weather in DC in july and august... i don't think that'll be a huge deal for them.
