Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
I have a strong feeling the the Saints will be playing a lot of nickel and dime packages against the Pats. This could be a good thing, especially if Ellis is back to provide pressure and stop the run. Their running game doesn't scare me much, so the Pats will most likely have to pass...A LOT. Brady is a a master at the QB position, and the Pats receivers are top notch. They will have to be ready to defend against the screen pass to Kevin Faulk out of the backfield if Brady can't find anything available with Moss, Welker, or one of their other receivers. GW better have the combination of Greer (hopefully he's ready), Sharper, Harper, Jenkins, McAlister, McKenzie, Young, Reis, and Prioleau jacked up and ready for this game. It is going to be a struggle.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
This game is all about defensive pressure and containment in the front 4. Brady has to have no more than 3.5 seconds in the pocket or he will eat us up. I'm more worried about the attrition along the front 7 this season than the minor nicks some of the secondary have (save for Porter and Greer) We didn't need Gay back after the second quarter and Torrence will be fine. Clearly the coaching staff/FO feel that it's time to prepare for a deep playoff run. It won't matter what seed you have if you've got too many key injuries. I like the MM pickup because Porter and Greer may be out for more than a few more games, if at all this season. We need some experience in the DB secondary come playoff time. It may just be that it's a competition between McAlister and MM for that extra spot.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
This has to spell the end of Carney. The numbers don't make sense otherwise. Unless they plan on cutting Pierson Prioleau.
I've got to be honest, just thinking about anyone other than Greer, Porter, or Jenkins even trying to stay with Moss gives me night tremors. I think even Sharper may have his hands full over the top this week. |

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
Mike gets to play with Sharper again. I'm glad that he's back.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
Either Porter's injury is more serious than we thought, or McKenzie is completely rehabilitated. Either way, Mike was best corner on our team for the past few years and I think this is going to be a major improvement and can only help 10 fold.

Re: Saints Sign Mike McKenzie
I love this. My biggest worry about New england was their underneath passing attack and it looks like we are going to try and cover that with CBs leaving Sharper over the top to intercept those balls thrown to Randy "alligator arms" Moss!
