Fujita
 
Could have murdered Drew Brees multiple times but laid off a bit, wrapping him up in his sack attempts, i was mortified to see our former teammate penetrating our marshmallow line and having an open chance to de-bone his former teammate, it pained me to see this as much as it pained me to watch him march his new team over us early and convincingly..

Congrats to Fujita, you showed you are not being affected by the Superbowl bliss and playing just as hard as you did last year.. good grief.

I'm impressed that he caught that ball.

It was at least 3 inches left of the center of his sternum, minimum.

Gotta thank fujita for not smacking drew if that was the case, he really stuck it to us. Even so, brees was way off! I know he is strict in his preparation, but something needs to change fast!

I think we miss Fujita in the locker room a lot more than on the field

MatthewT 10-24-2010 07:42 PM

Fujita is a true professional, he didn't kill Brees because that is the way he play football. I don't recall him ever playing dirty, true asset for the Browns team! Yes, I agree he is probably most missed in the Saints locker room.

Disagree. We're the 4th ranked defense in the NFL.

Unless Fujita can play O-line, RB or QB, we don't miss him at all.

Danno's in rare form today...gotta love it! :)

Yer our Defense is fine, they are doing their job. The O that has been ranked #1 in the past 4 straight seasons, is failing to show up. They need to get it together, payton got outcoached.

Anyone see Delhomme's frikken smirk on the sideline? I wish he would have been holding the chains.

TheOak 10-25-2010 08:53 AM

He had the best game he has had since 2008 and the second best game practically of his career!

Umm.. We need to change the game plan maybe?

Scott Fujita and Sheldon Brown also had interceptions for Cleveland. Fujita, a defensive leader for the Saints last season and a former fan favorite in the Louisiana Superdome, snagged his interception at the Cleveland 3 to thwart a likely scoring drive. Fujita also had one of three sacks on Brees. He was constantly watching the Saints' sideline for substitutions, then relayed the information to his own sideline to help with pre-snap adjustments.

Brees thanked Fujita by throwing him that pick in the redzone.

We miss scott.

I have studied what teams are doing to us in the run game and they seem to run more and successfully off tackle and right to the flat... exploiting our OLB's.

Our OLB's can't run down anyone or contain! Getting blown up and run-over.

This game however the Browns did everything right... take Brees out of the game and generate points on ST's and trick plays.

Good Point, but the defensive end's job is to contain and force the play to the inside...

We have very small defensive ends; Will Smith is adequate at best, though he did turn one run back in very nicely while still engaged with a blocker...

But we are missing Fujita's skill set and leadership, BIG TIME...

Both his guy, and Fujita were open, and he couldn't have thrown it more directly to Fujita. Seemed intentional, and in my reaction I thought "Must've been tipped," but then saw the replay "Nope, he just threw it straight to him."

Something's up--not sure what yet. But I don't blame it all on Breese, you've got to get open, catch the ball, linemen have to keep people off him, and he was a bit more harried than usual this season.

Coaches have to watch for trick plays. I keep wondering who is supposed to plug that giant hole in the punt--who is supposed to notice that guy standing 40 yards across the field, and keep an eye on him. I guess they've got something to work on.

I hated to see Fujita go--he was everywhere on the D last year.

his interview this morning on sirius was telltale. he still praised the saints and the org. class class classy guy, then they asked him if his tenure with the saints help gameplan them and said no then turned it and said yes all the practices against drew help in knowing his faults or alignments and formations. i knew from past players that leave for greener pastures do and will come back to haunt us. we all miss scott and we all said keep him its an uncapped year pay the man and they said no. we all said ok. did we replace him i say not yet,
