Defense....

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I just can't comprehend why there are ALWAYS receivers WIDE open with no one within 10 yards of them??? Why is this happening every single game?...

Apparently our "zone" is rather large... We need AWACS

I guess so. It is also a VERY noticable difference when Galette and Hicks were in there. Why are these 2 not starting with Smellis and Smith in relief?
We just keep doing the same thing week in and week out with the same result.

As for the "goalline" stand..that was as much TB stupidness as our stopping the run. They ran the exact same play 3 times in a row.

I refuse to give Jenkins any love. 2 weeks in a row he has made a heads up play but the rest of his game is garbage. I am so sick of seeing him miss tackles. 1 good play a game doesn't make up for the rest of his abysmal play.

This is what continues to confuse me as well. And it's not even on blitzes. We rush three or four, yet there are guys that have no one within 15 yards of the receiver. That tells me there is still major confusion with the scheme. But then again, I don't know squat, it's just my best guess...
