Armstead and Breaux return to practice (1 Viewer)

[Blessedog]

Left tackle Terron Armstead (knee) and cornerback Delvin Breaux (fibula) were both practicing Wednesday during the portion open to the media. Running back Travaris Cadet (toe) also practiced after missing last Thursday's game.

Running back Mark Ingram also practiced as coach Sean Payton said Wednesday morning. Ingram was announced as being in the concussion protocol during Thursday's loss to the Carolina Panthers.

The two players not seen on the field were running back Daniel Lasco (hamstring) and defensive end Darryl Tapp (undisclosed). Lasco has sat out four of the last five games.

We'll need Armstead healthy for this one. Hope he's ready.

Armstead is going to quickly replace Ellerbe if he has to leave this game. Clearly we feel like we can make a playoff push by allowing him to continue to play. I just hope its not something that could cause permanent damage.

I concur but to start a run you need to win 1 game and we have 0 Marin for error so not surprised we'd like to be as close to full strength as possible not to mention Williams has a tough defensive unit

I'm not a big fan of this, but I believe the way to beat Williams is to establish a good running game plan with short passes, just like we did against Seattle.

I remember that's how we beat him when Haslett was the coach.

I really want to see what Lasco can bring to the table. I wish he wasn't going through whatever it is that he is going through because he seems exactly like the type of 1st and 2nd down back that can make this offense very, very hard to stop.

Great news about Terron and Delvin. They are 2 of the 5/6 most talented guys on the team, it means quite a bit for both of them to be on the field.

No need to second guess the coach. If it's next man up, let's roll with it.

Based on what....your evaluations of him medically and in practice?

Based on him coming back too early and not being able to finish games.
I think that they should shut Armstead down for the year.

No point in resting players now. If guys are able to play, they need to play. We can't afford to lose this next game.
