We look like S#IT and so do the officials

I read an article somewhere last week where HAZ said something to the effect that they don\'t practice tackling because of the risk of injuries ... it shows. Is this something all the other teams live by also? How is it the saints have been such poor tacklers the last few years?

I am thinking this is a coaching defeciency somewhere. There is no reason to risk injring our offensive players for a defensive problem so make the defensive players go at each other and practice open field tackling. Make them do it everyday after the offense goes in.

And I was laughing at the cowboys?!
