Tackling - Its killing me! I have noticed though, its not just us. The fundamentals of wrap and roll have gone out of the window like an 8-track, even at the collegiate level. If you get either leg-and roll with it, even the biggest back has to go down. I love to see someone's mouthpiece get twisted; I get as excited as the next guy when someone gets flipped heels high, but the number of missed tackles just makes me cringe. Short 2-3 yard gains turn into 17 because we pop a guy, lay down, and the runner forgets to fold like a chair. Or the first guy on the scene goes for the strip instead of the tackle - let the second guy try to shake the ball loose. Greg Williams is high on turnovers, and our numbers are way up with him at the defensive helm, but I know he hasn't traded in form for fashion. We have gotten away with a lot of stuff this year, but I hope we clean that up soon.

gotta go special teams..carney scares me

skymike · 12-01-2009, 06:12 PM

dang it. You realize we could have hung a "41" up if Carney hits that kick???

The one thing I want the Saints to improve is the parking. I want Tom Benson to buy up a bunch of parking garages, charge half of what Central Parking charges, so we can all tell Central Parking to **** off.

He could put up concession stands on each lot, put up some advertising billboards, and even sell some high dollar cars on each one---some drunk will buy them. Hey, I seek win/win solutions.

btw, I really like all those people who go out and sell beer, water, pralines, and Saints junk on Poydras St. on game day. 2 Beers for 5 bucks! Hell yeah. Good job, my friends. Way to hustle, make some cash, and fill a need all at once. That's what America is all about.

How about Big Sed falling on fumbles inside the twenty, instead of trying to refridgerater Perry it into the endzone.... J/K, but that did frustrate the crap outta me last night.
