Couldn't agree more with Boutte

If you guys think Harper is bad, you obviously know little about football.

We know very little, enlighten us. Im not saying he's the worst Safety in the League put repeatedly tourched in coverage would be the phrase i would use. But, in his defense no one on this defense in it's current form is a game changer. Hopefully, Spags luhas a sotion for that.

If HARPER can't cover a tight end now, how could he do it totin around any extra weight????

How many TE's exposed him this year?

We're going to have to do a lot of tweaking with this team to keep them Playoff Viable, Brees seems to want a new Contract "RIGHT NOW" rather than later and we have Colston and Nicks to also deal with, im sure we're not keeping both if neither of them which is going to break some hearts.

I am not starting any crap with anyone....

buuuut..

Roman Harper is our only consistant pass rusher. I don't know what happened to the days of LB's getting to the QB and driving him into the soil but the Saints are carring the flag for the movement. I really hope Spags changes this concept of thinking/coaching.

I look at the Giants on "D" and see 4 DE's with the WLB and SLB coming after the QB like they are wolves and the QB is covered in raw meat!

I love HARD HITTING, HITTING THE QB so HARD he turns into the letter "C", QB having to take a timeout after a hit; DEFENSES!

So just kinda take it easy on Harper.

I agree with Mardigras9 who agrees with Danno.

I also agree with Halo who agrees with Boutte.
