lots of missed tackles by the starters on D. our starting O started off slow, but had a nice 20 play drive on their final drive. casillas had a good game when he was in, i like his chances of getting more playing time this year. ivory and gallette all looked like they could make the final squad.

other than that the main thing that sticks out to me was poor special teams coverage...oh and beavers had a nice return for a TD.

Saints vs. Patriots very brief analysis

  • Offensive line had its bad moments
  • Special teams was more like Special Olympics
  • Ramsey - meh

special team coach should be held down and let someone tickle his toes. ivory looked good on offense but nowhere to be found on special teams kickoff coverage. p.j hill had better game overall. my take

Beavers return was pretty impressive (97 yards). I didn't quite see who it was who threw the block to spring him open, but it was textbook. Tackling was shoddy on defense, and special teams defense was even worse. Arrington had a solid game with one heckuva 51-yard reception at one point. I was more impressed with Daniel (the interception wasn't his fault) than Ramsey. The 20-play drive on the 1st team's only score chewed up 10 minutes off the clock. Casillas was playing like he had something to prove. Gallette, Pressley, and Wood looked fairly solid with the 2nd and 3rd teams. There will probably be a week-long class on tackling fundamentals this week.

In short, there are a few things that need much improvement, and there are some other things that just need some tweaking. Coming back from a 24-7 deficit to tie it up in the 4th quarter was gutsy. They just allowed too many big plays, and it bit them in the butt in the end.

great game , no one will show anything. That fact that the Patriots lets us come back speaks volumes. Brees our OF 4 quarters there dead. Everyone knows we are a 2-4th quarter team.
