haha, if i could have, i would have just had your computer vomit on you while trying to describe our DB play this season

From the NOLA article:

New Orleans Saints Coach Sean Payton has fired defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo | NOLA.com


Yeah, Shanle was probably told to actually play like he belonged on the field... explains why we didn't see him on the field during the latter half of the season. And anyway, why is he commenting on this like it was something that affected him... his playing days in New Orleans are over!

Re: Spags Released
 

Most mock drafts I've seen have Mingo going top 10, think we have a realistic shot at him?

Re: Spags Released
 

LOL..right!! The last person I want to hear anything from!

Re: Spags Released
 

Exactly! :-D

Did Romeus play any 3-4 DE or OLB during his time at Pitt? I ask this because I don't follow any College football, and I'm too tired to start an internet search on the topic.

Re: Spags Released
 

Don't confuse physical talent with knowledge of the game.

By all accounts Shanle is a very smart player and will likely be a very successful coach one day.

I totally respect his opinion on X's and O's. Too bad he's about as physically gifted as a punter.

Re: Spags Released
 

I've seen him blow too many assignments and drag the players around him down for too long to have any respect for him at the moment... but maybe that'll change once he's no longer "our" problem.

Re: Spags Released
 

it could be that Sean had a lot of time to do research and found that teams that run the 3-4 include the Green Bay Packers, Baltimore Ravens, Indianapolis Colts, San Francisco 49ers, Washington Redskins, and Houston Texans. That is half of the playoff teams, to include the two super bowl contenders.

Re: Spags Released
 

He was voted a team captain and defensive MVP by the players and had one very popular player (can't remember who) explain that a lot of those so called "blown coverages" by Shanle were not blown by Shanle at all.

He often recognized that someone else blew their assignment and he tried to recover for them, and was mistakenly blamed for a coverage he wasn't responsible for to begin with.
