Quote: Gotcha "Saints early season were more injury hit than anyone has been. Never really recovered from it.'"
No they weren't at all. They had a couple out like most teams but definitely not anything major. Marty Smith missed the start of the year but even on his return he's been a big disappointment and Saints fans argue that he's been their worst signing in a long time.
And they did recover from their start as they were in pole position for a playoff spot after beating Cas week 1 of the 8's, they then lost the next 3 which have left them relying on others losing. They win those 3 they'd be 2nd right now so completely wrong to blame the start.
