Fujita

Saintswrath · 10-24-2010, 05:28 PM

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
