If Morestead can't kick em out of the endzone or out of bounds, boy we could be in serious trouble with special teams all season long.

Morstead is outpunting his coverage. Here are 5 of his 8 punts.
61,70,59,58,57.

He needs more height.

Re: Saints vs Raiders 7Pm Cent Friday

I would really like to see if Payton took care of the special teams issue. I also want to see more of the run game-especially Khiry Robinson.

Its hard to focus on Special teams because 1/2 the players on it won't be on the 53.
To speed up Smith hit >>

Don't feel bad Danno... think I have watched the game about as much as you. It's time for the regular season to start ...

Adjustments & special teams. I thought defensive tackling was good. Special teams, not so much.

Re: Saints vs Raiders 7Pm Cent Friday

Biggest Concern(s):

1. Left Tackle

1a. Outside Linebacker

Players I'd like to see early (running with first, second string), extensively (at least three full series) are:

Terron Armstead, John Jenkins, Chase Thomas, Eric Martin, Kevin Reddick...

Let them get their reps, mistakes in and see what you've got; we know the starters on the roster already so let's see if they can do better...

Re: Saints vs Raiders 7Pm Cent Friday

Defensive adjustments and running game. Too bad for Smith I was hoping he could really make the adjustment but he is running on old legs. He is a hitter but just not made for this. Maybe like someone suggested we could trade him to a 4-3 and get something. I think we are going to have to look on the waver wire to bring someone in that can help. We all knew that our defense was going to be a work in progress overall I think we will at least be average and show improvement week to week but we are still going to be burned. Sean built this team initially for an offensive show and our defense did get old and just not panned out.
