Why did Burns vanish for this game?

[Jmac]

Old man Houston came out and played well, Burns didn't do sh*t. Saints offensive front isn't all that, but Burns didn't show up for the game.

He wants to be paid like a top player, but his effort tonight was not a good look. Maybe they sh*t the bed by not taking the trade and getting the picks. Great players don't disappear for games, especially against division rivals. Give 100% or sit down.

Cause he’s a magician

That’s what he does

Not sure why he was on the sidelines during 4th qtr

Disappearing is what he does best. 40 mil for David Copperfield. 

[Smithers]

Because he’s not good.  I don’t know how many times we have to say this.  The dude has never been able to stop the run, gets taken out of games by tight ends, and whiffs more than he tackles.  The only thing Fitt has done right is not re-signing him.  Now trade him for whatever you can get

[4Corners]

He probably got a stinger and considering the guy is trying to break the bank he might be worried about getting a serious injury. 

[HarbingersDad]

Other teams run at him until they force our coaches to take him out. And he wants Bosa money. And half our media thinks he deserves it because he “has the potential to be better than Bosa.” This entire city is a clown show with professional sports. Even our media is a laughing stock.

Thats what he does

Dude jinx 

[RumHam]

We need to trade him and get our firsts back

[Wolfcop]

One of the biggest mistakes in franchise history was turning down that trade. Would have been great for getting Bryce actual NFL level weapons. 
 

Burns is a great guy, but he is not worth what we were offered and he doesn’t deserve 30 million to disappear every other game.

Like I said - and another poster on here - trade him for Tee Higgins and a first in 24…and probably one more pick from Cincy.
