The saints didn’t lose their #1 for any time, but he is banged up so they Are being PROACTIVE.
The bengals knew over a week ago green was hurt and would
Miss games at a minimum and potentially need surgery. So they brought in no one to try out...
Had they brought in WRs last week for tryout, they could have had the bye to get acclimated. Lapham said if the WRs don’t do much this week, then the bengals might look at other options.
The bengals are so poorly run it’s not funny. Just when you think they are trying to turn a corner, they always seem to show they still don’t get it.
No worries. Those dumb Saints don't realize they're signing a scrub off the street that nobody else wanted.
I'm sure a locker room implosion is imminent in New Orleans.

For the entire season the Saints have only had ONE wr with more than 12 receptions. They have placed 3 WRs on IR. Trying to compare their situation with the Bengal who have had two of the top 11 WRS in the league on the roster all year is ridiculous.
What's ridiculous is that 2 of those IR'd WRs you talk about were Tommylee Lewis and Travin Dural. Both undrafted guys. One with zero career catches and the other had 10 catches last year. Not big losses at all. The other was Ted Ginn, who was productive for them, but not exactly AJ Green.
AJ's status going forward is currently murky, so it would've been nice to see them make a move. If AJ misses time and we fade down the stretch, not being proactive will look bad in hindsight. To some, it looks bad right now. You always talk about Marv lacking talent, then you say we don't need anybody whenever free agents are discussed. Which is it?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
