Everyone keeps talking about depth.......well, I didn't see it last night.

Depth is when you can replace 1 or 2 positions and continue playing at the same level. Not swapping out the entire team and expecting to play at the same level.

Which one?

Seriously, I pay little to no reverence to pre-season. We are evaluating players at this point. Other teams are still trying to find out if their starters are actually starters. Saints are in good shape. If a pass rush develops then we are going to roll on these clowns.

Exactly, it was Billy Joe flashbacks for me as well. Or even further. I kept telling my girlfriend, "No, really. This is what ALL the games used to be like, back when I was kid." I mean for the old timers, it was a real flashback to the old days, when the end zone sacks for safeties, and the fumbles and interceptions and missed extra points and hapless QBs running around like chickens, it used to be that was the Saints "A GAME," and stuff like that went on for the WHOLE SEASON, not just one screwy night in August.

As far as third string - I saw Shanle do a walk-by a couple times! So, YUP!

yep... I remember all that. fumbled snaps, penalties in bad spots, and good old fashioned getting run over by the other team.

Especially when the other team comes in looking to win their first regular season game (i.e. Buccaneers in '77 and the reinstated Browns in '99)
