Left tackle move

Liking the combo evidently they are both talented and having them both play uses our team to full potential solely because we have great depth. And a plus because they have time to rest up in between substitutions.

Don't worry, Brown will be back next year, no way the Saints let someone like that walk. Bushrod has played fairly well, but I think teams may have figured him out, so it only makes sense to get Strief in there for a bit.

Word out of the locker room is Bushrod starts Monday night with six sacks or more and Strief gets no rotation. Sounds like Payton is using Strief as a pawn. Look for Strief to take any offer and walk next year. He's gotta be getting tired of being used and abused

What I've noticed about Strief is that he will take his man to the outside and around allowing Drew to step up in the pocket to throw. However if Drew doesn't get rid of the ball in that 3-4 sec count he will get hit because Strief's man will get around him.

does anyone know where ciron black is being projected these days or is it too early to talk about that sorta stuff?

It seems to me that the pressure that's getting to Drew is coming from his blind side. I thought Payton was trying to decrease the turnovers by insertting Strief and hopefully give defensive coordinators something else to think about. It is good to see that both can do the job adequately before we hit the final stretch of the season and head into post season play hopefully.
