I "still" think we are too short!
We are now in the powder puff, please don't touch the receiver league.
We will get lot's of greif from the officials only because it looks like our guys are climbing a tree when the balls in the air. 1st and 10's, 1st and goals, and fades to the corner just because...
If receivers have time to make a double moves on us, and QB's have time to wait on a double move, we are toast anyway.

I think you might have something there, but I don't believe that it's as simple as that at the end of the day.

All of the Saints' CBs are listed as 5-11, which isn't tall by any measure known to me, but, on the other hand, Darrelle Revis is also listed as 5-11 and it doesn't seem to hinder him from successfully covering and shutting down the best WRs in the league each and every night.

I still think that Greer, Porter, and Robinson are above average when it comes to the NFL CBs, and, furthermore, I believe Robinson will develop into the No 1 CB for this team within the next two seasons (hopefully forming a shutdown tandem with Patrick). I'm inclined to think that it might not just be about the players themselves - somebody already brought up the point about the change in the secondary coaching - but that it might have more to do with the way the coverage schemes and game plans are drawn up, because it seems to me that neither of those are putting the Saints' CBs in the best possible situation to succeed in, which coaching is ultimately about.

I think you are dead accurate. I also think even just a LITTLE pressure by our DLINE would help.
