Waits until the end of the season, and then finally decides to start playing him. Unreal. It takes Parcells to give him a wake up call. How out of touch does he look with this? I love our coach, but it seems he waited to long to make changes, like Charlie Brown, Hartley, and our run game. And can't he see Sproles is washed up? This guy has ZERO speed and no moves anymore. Horrible on Kickoffs and just watches other teams down our punts. Maybe he should get Parcells on the sidelines next year.
Sproles isn't washed up...You don't run your smallest player on routes where he's gonna get pounded
Little guy took some heavy hits this year

Re: Jimmy Graham... Soft ?

Chalk it up sometimes to your opponent. Sherman is an @$$... but is a hell of a competitor.

I'd rather the Saints move forward with Graham than without him...

The Bush hit on Harvin was a good clean hit. I'm encouraged by some of the younger players on this team. Someone said it, but a few good moves and we are again strong contenders next season.

Re: The official ***** and moan thread

I like the thought of a smash mouth O, Ingram and Robinson as a 1-2 punch with Brees at the helm. Stills and (draft) another speedster with great hand and runs routes well, a Morton Anderson type kicker and beef the O-line a little, we could easily turn into a game manage team. It's been exciting all the high potency O but we can't keep it up long(Brees is getting older and with age comes decline sadly), defenses have evolved and so should we. I'm also looking forward to actually run the 3-4 D next season, it usually takes about 2 years to do though, but the way Ryan has done this season and some of the players we have it may not take that long and I hope it don't. I look for Payton to start trusting in the run game a lot more and Ryan to do his thing on D, but our special teams has stunk all year and I would like to see a coaching change there for the better, games like today special teams could have helped but as usual it was more like special ed. A good kick return man could help us win a few games over the season. Not Cadet or Sproles. I'd trade Sproles for a draft pick. Cadet has done nothing and we could use his spot for someone also.

I almost want Carolina to win Super Bowl

Mainly because that would leave the Failclowns as the only team in the NFC South without a Lombardi Trophy!!

I think it's because the Saints run game has been very inconsistent over the last 7 years, One year it's good the next it's not. But Drew, on the other hand, seems to be able to get 5,000 yards every season and put the ball in the tiniest spots 40 yards down the field. Even our run game has usually been set up by the pass. So we've all become used to it. We expect Drew to carry us because he has so many times.

Maybe it's time to change to a run first team. It looks like we have all the pieces. Maybe we pick up a right tackle and center in the draft or free agency and make the run game a primary focus.
