I saw some missed blocks (graham) and so
E blown coverage. There is room for improvement. I did see some good coverage on ST, hope that carries into season.

What good did you see on ST?

The drop off from Brees to Mccown is far worse than Bradford to Hill. Bradford hasn't done anything in this league so in my opinion there isn't really a drop off at all.

Here is our list of starters that did not play:

Drew Brees

Jairus Byrd

Pierre Thomas

Champ Bailey

Ben Grubbs

Jahri Evans

Kenny Stills

Erik Lorig

Victor Butler

Kind of long.

Cooks doesn't do KR. And he hasn't really lit things up at PR. It'll be interesting to see if he turns into the punt returner this year.

bad -
CB depth does not look to be improved. the second and third year players all seem to pick up were they left off. so it will be a long year of praying to stay healthy. white still at his best with the play in front of him.

OL looked good for the most part and Litto did well except for missing a couple of stunts. Saints need to keep an eye on the waiver for back ups. I was not to impressed with the depth as a whole.

DL inside looks set. i like the showing of the dack ups. DE is an are that did not shine but it looks to be better than last year. we need to work on Jr backup.

WR - I have to wait till Drew returns. Coleman stunk up the joint. hit it the face with a ball. i almost fell out the chair LMAO. Toon? for a man his size he runs like a wimp. at least he caught the ball. but lack of effort to get yards after the catch leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

ILB - another year of quick quick throws up the seam will kill us again this year.

good - it is the first preseason game.

We didn't have anything even close to our starters playing in that game.

They had their fair share out too. Including two of their best defensive players, but I do see your point.
I didn't see PT out there, any news on him? Figured they are just not risking injury?

Anyone having trouble replaying this on a NFL network /game pass subscription? Really annoying.

saintsfan403 · 08-09-2014, 05:29 PM

I agree with Hagan that our o-line depth is a bit shallow minus our interior. Considering we had Harris and Senio Kelemente starting in Lou of Grubbs/Evans + Lellito and Goodwin, I think that's ok. Tackle depth has me quite worried though.

Cruize · 08-09-2014, 05:46 PM

Good - Run game. Ingram and Robinson. Cooks. Walker. Foster. Graham recieving. Humber. Griffin. Forrt, Powell and Sunseri showed promice. Dimke. Win.

Bad - The leader at kicker missed an easy one. Graham barely offering a shoulder on a block and getting the RB killed. LB's as a group are not impressive. Coleman didn't do the minimum for a NFL reciever in catching the ball. A WR, LB, and possibly CB not currently on the roster will make the final 53.

Ugly - The Saints NEED a healthy Byrd, Stills and Grubbs.
