Re: Cameron Jordan leads Saints' dramatic turnaround on Defense
 

Dont forget about Akiem Hicks. He has been a heavy impact in the game as well. Now if only our secondary would step up to the plate an d eliminate the middle to deep threats. Where do you think Vacarro is a better fit, corner or safety?

It is so much fun watching these young guys on the d-line. I think we all knew Jordan and Galette could play, but all those kids on the d-line are bringing it. And they've been playing all this time without Bunkley who is arguably one of the top 3-4 nose tackles in the whole league.

It really kills me that we have been paying/treating Will Smith as if he were an elite DE all these years when he has never at any point in his career made as much of an impact as Jordan has in these first 3 games.

Vacarro's pretty much lined up everywhere but D/T hasn't he? I like him at safety, but you gotta' appreciate his versatility. This guy is gonna' be golden and develop into a 'Charles Woodson'-level player in terms of defensive leadership and value to his team, bet. :mrgreen:.

The move to the 34 had benefited Cam Jordan the most...

It's also redistributed the demand on defense, allowing more players to pressure the quarterback...

Cam Jordan has improved, but the switch to the 34, which many of us have clamored for since two years ago, has been the most significant adjustment...
