Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Nice now we can cover walker and moss. Brings up the question.. Who was released to sign him

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

anyone think we will see Cmac or MM starting Mon? Surely they cant just slide in. this system is totally different than gibbs ol "just go there" scheme of the past

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Pfft, we knew hours ago. :patos:

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Well if Greer is back I feel MJ will start...

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

I think so. We know Torrence's shoulder is hurt, Gay has s groin injury.

We'll know more wednesday. Give it a half week of practice to know the upcoming roster and starters.

I think MM is in such shape and he knows the D where he could start NOW if needed.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Wow, we went from being strong in the secondary to scrambling for bodies to play. I'm glad that MM is back, between him and McAlister one of them should pan out well for us. Jenkins looked good in his game Sunday and I'm glad he got the interception in his first game. Our secondary is going to be tested at every turn Monday night in the Dome. Hopefully we get some bodies back this week.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

And he should! He'll have to press Welker all night to get him off his route.

The real question is whether Ellis will play or be effective.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Let's hope Ellis plays and plays well.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

He could make the difference in Brady's pass completion %. (to sharper) :)

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Yes indeed ... he is due for another pick6 or two.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

You guys act like these guys don't know the system but I beg to differ they totally get the system. They are profession DB's. Williams makes adjustments each week based on who we are playing.

Gibbs system was a broke pop warner system. MM and CM know how to man up, where to be what to do in situations. They fit Williams system far better than Gibbs broke system.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

I agree. I know MM knows what's going on. Only reason he was let loose was recovery from the knee injury early on.

I remember when he first showed up from Green Bay and didn't know our system, he was the only playmaker out there at that time. Mike is a very strong NFL cornerback. Solid player all around. Was all we had the past 2 years.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

You saw MM frustration with our safties not giving him help over the top and not taking the angles they were suppose to. I feel sorry for the guy. I felt like he was the only one who got it, obviously Gibbs didn't get it.

Now pair MM up with A DC and Safties who know what they are doing and where to be... Get the F out of here! This game is over before its played, lets hope what MM is ready and injury is healed like they are saying.

I don't know if they actually held CM out for the Bucs game on purpose. You give the Pats tells and what to expect in the secondary. We didn't need him to win so sit him. Sure he may not have been in game shape but he's a pro and had been preparing to play!!! Something tells me there is more to that story. Saints may have been preparing for this game.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Here, I edited a pic to show you what MM would look like in a Saints uni...

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

MM is 33yrs old now with at least 2 major knee injuries, but I'm sure he was worked out and passed the physical or else they wouldn't have signed him. right?

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Hi New guy here. I think we will see CM in nickel but I wouldn't expect to see MM until the Skins game if he's needed.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Way to go, Halo, you even scooped WWL!

BLACKANDGOLD.COM!

Welcome back, Predator.

Was he really here last year? Wow, the time passes.
I'll bet he's still great.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

My guess is McCalister will play if needed and McKenzie will only play in an emergency situation

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

The latest:
Saints placed CB Leigh Torrence on injured reserve with a separated shoulder, ending his season.

Torrence, the Saints' No. 5 cornerback for most of the season, finishes up with 10 tackles and a half sack. The 27-year-old old is a favorite of defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, but the Saints' increased CB depth will put Torrence on the roster bubble if he's retained in restricted free agency.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Don't have to worry about his knees. I don't think he will be playing much man to man and with CMac and Sharper in the secondary that's ALOT of experience in the secondary. I like it alot.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

My hats off to this guy. He went back in the game and popped another Buc with that bum shoulder. He was done after that second one.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

We are tied w/ Lions and Bills at 12 for most players on IR :-(

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

The guys over at SR are taking credit for this. What a bunch of bleepbidy, bleep bleeps.

Mike McKenzie told someone here on SR.COM at a hornets game last basketball season that he would be back! =)

I think people wrote him off too much last season, and now give him the label of old. I don't remember when last season, but nothing got past him up until a touchdown was scored on him and then all of a sudden everyone was saying how he's old and such.

I'm working so I can't dig up specifics.

Maybe. I thought McAllister was going to have to play this weekend when people were falling off the earth injured.

Saints | Ellis, Greer expected to play in Week 12
Mon, 23 Nov 2009 11:28:36 -0800

Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports New Orleans Saints DL Sedrick Ellis (knee) and CB Jabari Greer (groin) are both expected to play in Week 12.
KFFL - New Orleans Saints News and Notes

I like the M&M being back. But for all of you FF guys start Wes next week. Without Porter and Greer coming back at less than 100% we have no one to cover him.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

We'll need Ellis and Greer for sure. I just hope they are ready.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Championship

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

HOLY ****.

Did not see this coming, great job Mark.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

When the two CBs got hurt in the Bucs game, I thought about them getting Mike. I hope he can help some.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Nothing wrong with this. (I really just wanted to post on this because everyone else had)

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

I'll sure they now have merges, mega-merges, and the usual ***holes flaming each other for "use the search

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

Get'um Mike.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

i get excited thinking of possible defensive schemes with greer, porter, jenkins, cmac, mm and sharper on the field at the same time. this of course is assuming everyone is healthy and playing like their former self. could be the best dime package in history haha!

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

This is wonderful news. MM is back with the black and gold!!! As long as he is healthy, the combinations that can be put out there in our defensive backfield are numerous...in time for the final push with the Pats and Cowboys coming up, too...

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

+1 :boohoo:

Diat150 is the banned police dude. He gets his kicks for assisting mods with people who have been banned who has gotten back on the board. The dude is a major tool.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

I wonder what kind of shape he's in.....it will be interesting to see what the D packages look like once everyone is good and healthy again.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

And on another note, I know I'm going to get razzed for this but what does "pawned" mean ?

I've seen it used (mostly in jest) by guys on this board but since I'm new to this forum vernacular....I haven't a clue lol

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
 

1. Pawned

Many people attack "pawned" as a misspelling of "pwned", but it has, in fact, become an acceptable spelling. The original origin of the word "pwn" was a typo, probably from a high-speed chat, of the word "own". Think how "the" is now "teh" in traditional l337 internet slang. In any case, looking at the origins of the word "own," one could deduce that it implies some dominance over something or someone. When "own" and "owned" became "pwn", "pwned" and "pwnage", the words came to mean the same thing; dominance and superiority. The new word "pawn" is very simmilar in the sense; its plain definition is to belittle or reduce someone or something to pawn status, essentially, "owning" them.
