Not much good happened today
 
I hate to be negative but...

I'm losing patience with Jenkins. He just isn't very good.

Corey White should have a target painted on his chest. I think he's going to a good CB but it's going to be painful in the meantime.

I was going to talk about our LBs and DBs but lets just keep it short. Our defense sucks!

PT is the most under rated player in the league.

What's up with Colston? Not too great a start for him this season.

The O.L. is tied with LBs as the most disappointing unit on the team.

Morgan is blowing his chance. None of the other WRs is exactly setting the world on fire either though.

Did I mention PT is GREAT?

People expect too much out of Brees. If we had any other QB we'd be leading the league in sacks given up and we'd losing games by 20 points.

Thank God for Jimmy Graham and Darren Sproles.

I think Ingram did pretty well today too...

Jenkins is hit or miss. He can do something great one play and then stink the next.

Same thing with Corey White, Made a couple of good plays then let a couple go by.

Our Defense simply SUCKS.

We just don't look like we have a plan on defense. We are like the Obama administration. We just wait for something bad to happen and then we react. Am I wrong?

Re: Not much good happened today
 
White at least has the excuse of being a rookie.

And yeah Ingram looked real good.

Ingram blows, its waste of down when you give it to him.

It was about as bad as when you hand it off to Reggie Bush.

The only thing missing is blaming the previous DC!

Kind of a moot point, but was that TD wasted? You know the one where PT ran it forever and needed a breather?

I guess we should have left a gassed PT in there, :rolleyes:

Amazing. Repeating the same nonsense over and over won't make it come true.

I am the President of Pessimists but I am reeeealy trying to find some perspective. So far, this is what I've got:

Graham and Moore can't continue to drop passes like this. They've got to turn it around eventually.

Also, with some help from Archie's boys we could end the weekend only one game out of first thanks to the Giants win today and the Broncos playing the Failcons tomorrow.

Drew Brees.

Finally: we should get J-Pat back and our front 4 could still adjust to Spags' scheme and wind up improving.

What have the rest of you got?

I'll add

Sproles is a beast and so is PT!

Dude, we could have 4 Mark Ingrams and an extra LB and DT for what Bush would have cost us.

Way less penalties this week. Henderson will come back, we have a home game against a less mobile QB that could REALLY help morale. A Danno said no more Rg3s or Newtons on the schedule, our offense is putting up points and the missed opportunities on offense are all fixable.

Eventually Patrick Robinson is going to start coming down with those picks.

He's got the position, just not the hands right now


and fwiw, no way Bush lasts the season with the workload he's getting. He's proven himself to just not be that durable, but he did look good today

SaintsBro 09-16-2012 06:03 PM

Re: Not much good happened today
 
Bush did look good. I kinda wish we had played the Raiders today as well.

W. Kovacs 09-16-2012 08:29 PM

Re: Not much good happened today
 
Really good points about Patrick Robinson and Henderson.

Dude, I wanted to ask about Penalties. I only saw the game on Red Zone since it was all I had available to me. Thanks for pointing that out...

I am glad Reggie is doing well in Miami. I really like him but I agree he was a bad fit for us. He cost way too much and didn't seem durable enough. I think the fact he got shipped to another team may have awoken something within that wouldn't have been if he had been able to stay with us.
