Thomas and Shockey miss practice

Pierre Thomas (back) and Jeremy Shockey (ankle) both missed their second straight day of practice Thursday.

This is becoming a greater concern with Thomas. We haven't got a clear indication from the local writers if the injury is serious, but perhaps this is why Thomas had a lower-than-expected workload against Detroit. Shockey seems iffy at best to play Sunday. Dec. 25 - 6:34 pm et

I feel really iffy about this game because Thomas is serviceable and better i feel for the Saints offense than Bush.

However, if he's out, and the Panthers can just go nuts against the passing game, it's going to be the first meeting all over again, because I know the Saints can't stop our run game.

Pierre Thomas may be out? :crazy:

isn't their run defense higher ranked than ours? i guess it's really moot if PT doesn't play though.

It's funny when Panthers fans are more concerned about Pierre Thomas playing than Reggie Bush.

Razzle and Dazzle will win us the game.

I'm sure Falcon fans everywhere are

Not when he's a better RB than Bush.

Not when he's a better RB than Bush.

And he's about a play or two from joining mister Bush

Sunday isn't coming here quick enough

Since we haven't head anything about this until today down here, I'd expect Thomas' injury is likely minor.

Just FYI Saints run defense if better than the Panthers.

And that's why you guys are 8-7 and the Panthers haven't lost a game in your crappy dome since 2001 :cornut:
