Speaking to the Saints coverage teams ... over the past several weeks the Saints were forced to field several of their best special teams players in the starting offensive and defensive lineups. These players did not play on special teams during this time and it showed.

From this point on not only will the Saints top special teamers be back in the lineup, but our best players overall will be playing special teams. Bush will be returning punts. Fujita and Shanle will be in on coverage. Malcom Jenkins and Courtney Roby, who have both been used as starters, will be returning to fulltime special teams duty.

Rackers last field goal attempt (seemingly a gimme) sailed wide left in AZ. As much as I dislike kickers deciding games played by real football players, most have fragile egos and this may prove to be something to watch for in next weeks game.

Can you imagine the pressure on Rackers in the dome on Saturday? Especially if he misses his first attempt.

2009 will go down in NFL history as the year of the missed chip shot. There have been a TON this year across the league. Frankly, I was barely surprised when he missed it.
