Percy Harvin DNP thurs & friday

[brimsalabim]

Ok then what do we know?

Did he play after the kick return?
Has he practiced at all in the two weeks since then?

We also know that he has a history of not practicing even when he could and this has not helped his QB's in the past.

And we know he is explosive when he wants to be. He is a classic Wide Receiver Diva.
I hope that he plays because we need all hands on deck for this one because a win know sets us up for home field advantage in the playoffs.
If he doesn't play I hope the office will begin working on replacing him with some one who wants to be a part of the team.

He did play after the return, just didn't get a touch. That shows that the hip isn't injured, maybe sore, but not injured. People need to get off his case, in time he will prove that this trade was more then worth it. :179422:

 

[brimsalabim]

I'll get off his case when of if he becomes part of the team.

Get a grip


The ridiculous personas people on here carry are sad sometimes

Hawks did not have practice yesterday. So everyone was a DNP. Today's practice report will be telling.

I know they didn't have practice on Thursday, but where did you hear that they didn't have practice yesterday?

People put WAY too much weight on individual practice reports without any context. For context you must look at a variety of things...

1. Player history - Harvin doesn't really have a history here yet, so this is not as relevant as it is with a guy like Lynch, but since Harvin is just returned from a full year out of the league it is to be expected they will be extremely cautious with him.

2. Coach speak - In this case, Pete has said a few things. He wants Harvin to practice, but he also said early in the week that they are being very cautious with Percy and that we should expect them to continue to do so every week this season.

3. End of week injury report - This is an odd week. Not only is it off by a day because it is a Monday game, but it was also an off day Thursday due to Thanksgiving. Saturday afternoon the team will put out a game status. Unless Harvin is listed as out then we shouldn't be counting him out or overly stressing over it

Basically people need to take into account many factors when reading practice reports and not worry over it too much before all the information is in. Is it worth keeping an eye on when a player misses practice? Of course, but don't overreact.

The factor I'm taking into account is that this is Percy Harvin, who is an enigma to say the least.

There's plenty of motivation for Pete not to be forthcoming about Harvin's status. Even if he knew for sure that he's not playing, he may not want to disclose that information to the public so that the Saints to have to prepare as if Harvin is playing Monday.

So basically you want to discount some of the facts because YOU think we would or should lie about it as a team. This is exactly how people get all worked up over what could very well be nothing.

Anyone who thinks they know Harvin's status before game status is announced today is making a foolish presumption.

If we're gonna have 4+ pages discussing every practice Harvin misses, this is gonna end up being 100 pages by seasons end. The guy hardly practiced in Minny even when essentially healthy. He's an All-Pro at getting out of practices, it's almost Allen Iverson-esque where they both know that when they play it's at an all-star or Pro Bowl level. Yes he could use reps in practice but I'm sure his confidence is at a place where he'd rather stay healthy & rested than get a few practice reps.

I'm sorry, didn't we win 10 games without harvin this year? I'ts not like we're playing CAR or SF or the Rams who have an elite D, yes the Saints D is much improved, but let's not sit here and think our offense with or without out harvin can't have success against them. IF their defensive can't constantly put pressure on RW then we'll be fine without him.

Have faith in your team people, with or without harvin this offense is still dangerous...

What's really amazing is Nostradamus predicted this thread would happen exactly 600 years ago today.

Not really, but you didn't have to be Nostradamus to predict threads like this would eventually permeate this forum. A few, not blinded by all that is blue and green, didn't just predict this would happen, we knew this would happen. Always amazes me how fans will dismiss a players past as soon as he joins that fans team. These are the posters most often stressed by events such as this.

Myself? No stress at all. When we inked Harvin, I saw it as an expensive luxury pick, but one that would give us a bump whenever he avails himself for play. I also felt we didn't need Harvin to win. Still don't, so no stress at all. Not saying I told you so......this is just common sense. My reason for posting this is to keep others away from the ledge. You'd do well to view Harvin as that bad ass Corvette the neighbor is constantly working on. Sometimes it won't start, but when it does, holy sh*t.

Well, that changes things quite a bit imo. He was DNP on Thursday (when they didn't actually practice), so it makes sense that they would continue the same status into Friday when they didn't actually practice either.

Are they practicing today? I hope so. I think we need to fully prepare for the Saints...

 

[HawkWow]

The line in Vegas hasn't fluctuated. Not even by a 1/2 point. So the public's perception, including that of the whales, hasn't changed, nor been been influenced at all by any of this (inc. WT3 and BB). Deep breath Hawk fans. Only the Saints and their fans should be stressing on this fine holiday weekend.

This is a time we are for the most part, unfamiliar with (other than 05, maybe 83). Feel good in knowing your team is the best in the land, playing at home and soon to be 11-1.

Harvin is now doubtful according to Ian Rapopart.

He practices in the game.

Thanks for the lesson there, Kid. I'm sure glad you're around to keep me from making a foolish presumption.
