Im liking Vaccaro more and more every practice, seems like he's flowing to the ball and making plays

Play of the Day: Kenny Vaccaro's Hit

Seer1 · 07-31-2013, 10:43 AM

Wouldn't have minded seeing Kenny wrap PT up as he hit him.

Whew! In the age of Roger Goodell's NFL I thought maybe he took a swing at Pierre after reading the title.

Looks like how our players have been tackling for quite some time now. It was a nice hit and all... but that's not the way we've been clamoring for it to be done.

Wrap up rookie... don't make the same mistake we've been doing for a long time.

The other issue with the hit is it is about 5 yards past the line of scrimmage....but i love the effort.

Absolutely.. I'm all for big hits too but wrapping up is a MUST. Arm tackling won't get it done at this level.

My generation is more concerned with the big hit then form tackling. Its not really a Saints problem, its a football problem in general. Dudes want to make Sportscenter. Dun dun dun...dun dun dun.

A little too much hype on this play .... show us some TP, Troy Polamalu!

Give PT a little credit. Dude is good. It's hard to tackle him without giving up some yardage.
