10 Things wrong with our defense.

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I'm inclined to agree in principle with just about everything written so far, but I'd like to add a slightly different angle... 1) We telegraph our defense. Our front seven have no guile. Our defensive backs look like the chump ...

I'm inclined to agree in principle with just about everything written so far, but I'd like to add a slightly different angle...

1) We telegraph our defense. Our front seven have no guile. Our defensive backs look like the chump at a poker table "bluffing" blitzes.

2) We give every receiver the respect due Randy Moss in his prime. Most can't juke themselves out of the shower, but we give a double amputee WR a 10 yard cushion. We supposedly have lockdown corners in Greer, Porter and Robinson. WTF?

3) Our D doesn't pay attention. One guy runs one way, everyone follows. No discipline, no responsibility, no edge contain. The book is pretty simple, fake one way, go the other, and you'll gain 45.

4) Bull rush is the only rush. Not hard to block a bull rusher. You use his weight and momentum against him. Good technique makes simple work of our linemen. Wonder why qbs and rbs have career days? Spin moves, swim moves, hand slaps, jukes. No one fears any of our linemen.
