FastForward: --> Swanson Miller
 
I'm not as analytical as most here. I just call what I see like I see it.

This morning I re-watched the second half of the Raiders game just to see what the seconds and thirds look like. Game over, we won, so I'm not watching it with the intensity of a first-time viewing. You notice more detail the second and third time around. Anyway...

Swanson Miller was only in for one set of downs as far as I can figure. Starting at 6:35 of the 4th quarter. Last defensive stand in the game.

Now, knowing that he was facing only his caliber of offensive lineman, the guy pulled off 2 sacks and 1 hot pursuit of the play in 3 downs.

If he gets playing time against the Titans, AND gets 1 sack. I call him a keeper. We only managed 3 sacks in this game and 1 came from Casillas. The other two were Swanson Miller sacks.

We are either going to keep this guy or we will FACE this guy. Lord, I hope we KEEP him!

Just a thought. Bash me if you like for my inexperienced eye.

So the staff isn't behind Tom Johnson or Mitch King? Link?

I'm not sure there's a single soul on this board that's on the Swanson Miller hate wagon. I root for everyone wearing a Saints jersey... even Will Herring. Hopefully he'll stop sucking. And if there's a Scott Shanle fan club, I'm in it too.

He has a lot of potential, I hope we can sneak him on the roster somehow.

What other DT's are you referring to?

Well said. While Shanle is probably the weak link among our starters, I'll cheer for him on gameday just as hard as I cheer for anyone else.

If Miller beats out King and Johnson, he's earned his spot and I'll cheer like crazy for him too.

I see your point. We've seen very little of Tom Johnson and he receives a good amount of praise and attention.

On that same note, Junior Galette hasn't done jack squat either and he receives a lot of mention. See my point? Some people just like some more than the other... that doesn't mean we aren't also rooting for them.
