Two most disappointing players

spkb25 · 09-30-2012, 09:44 PM

Colston had 9 catches for 153 yards and a TD
Moore 7 for 67

has to be grahm, and a toss up between sproles, and moore.the drops are getting worst. grahm had no excuse, yes deback jumped the play on goal line but he did'nt effect where the ball landed, thru his hands and a missed t.d. moore of the same, great catch, poor miss. sproles could have possibly put game away, hes done this before why not today.at least he manned up and took blame. grahm still young. moore should have his hands together by now.it was'nt a totall loss but a loss.

Ingram has had zero productivity to warrant a first round pick.
I'm kind of tired of Jenkins being caught out of position on screens all the time.

What has me burned more than anything else: How about the fan in the Brees jersey in the end zone BEFORE kick off with a friggin' bag on his head? Or am I the only one who caught that?

I don't know who to think. Everyone has been, but i want to trade Ingram. He might be good, be we will never find out. That is as long as he is a Saint.

Our players drop balls all the time. Henderson, which would have gave us a first and goal, Moore, Sproles, hell they all dropped a pass today. The only one who didn't drop one today was Morgan. I almost crapped myself when he held on to it.
The D just flat sucks. I'm tired of picking on them

That's my point. I mean, what's the point in drafting a skills players you will not utilize correctly? The running plays with Ingram are terrible. So far this season ANY running play has is terrible with ALL out running backs, PT included.

I like Ingram. I think he'll be a solid NFL back.

Right now we are super overly desperate for a solid, pass-rushing, ball hog monster on the d-line. I say package Ingram up with Devery (or whatever else) and make a damn trade with a team who needs them and activate Ivory.

Somebody, something... we have a ton of talent on offense sitting the bench and a defense lacking at almost every position.

ok i have been sitting and giving this kid time to show me something.

No i did not jump up and down over the pick and still think PT is our #1 RB.

Now my issue to date has not been so much Mark and his inability to impress me as it has been the way the saints use him. Since mid season of last year teams played 8 in the box or ran run blitzes when he took the field.

So i can not pass judgement on him at this point. the saints are very predictable now in what we running and defenses know how to play us.

what will you get for him? squat! Lets try working on his blocking and blitz pick ups or sit down and figure a way to get him open in the flat. Because he is a straight line runner that has maybe one cut when hitting the line. he has yet to show the ability to sneak though a defenses front 7. Then again our OL is to blame for part of it. I will not go there.

so i say we are stuck with him or better he is stuck with us till the saints build an OL that can run block better. face it we have two solid OG and a serviceable center and two OT that leave a lot to be desired at this point for two very different reasons.

i said i was not going there. sorry

No I bet we could get something for him. HE will be a better back in a different system. Anyone who knows football can see that. Yes our O line cant open a hole for ****, but we need to do something, Ivory will not get us anything. Plus we are not going to trade PT or Sproles. We don't have much to trade, but number 22 would get us something. If not that will just be another wasted pick.

If Shankley could hit two snaps in a row with seven yards difference, we'd have a massive win. But he's SHANKLEY.

Lance was 50/50 today. It frustrated me to see Drew keep going to him, but...

Loved that Morgan T.D. But it's still a hung jury as to whether he will be productive.

Thomas... Come on man!

Brees would have had 600 yards if we had no drops. And we would have won.

We owed Sproles a couple mistakes. He's NEVER made these before.

This is our second fake punt failure in recent memory. We'll see another is my guess.

I miss Meachem. Sorry. I'll probably say that again next week when he scores.

We're getting all this national TV time and we're 0-4. THAT SUX.

What makes you think Meach would be immune from the bubonic football drop plague going around the Saints right now?

Seriously, the drops today became comical to where the 3 of us watching the game started to laugh.

When Sproles dropped today I knew "the voodoo fix" was in. I'm seeing drops across the entire team and don't know how Meach would be immune.

Sure handed receivers dropping balls doesn't make sense what are the odds.
One of two things SP is not on the sideline waiting to chew them out, or who's chucking the balls to them in the first place.
