“Coming from the Big XII, the tempo offenses all the time, to get a breather between each snap was wonderful for me,” the rookie said. “I’m not used to that. In college I was play after play after play no-huddle.” In other words, Vaccaro felt like Friday night was slower in comparison to the college game. Vaccaro finished with a team-high six tackles and, partially because of the tempo, felt the game was a little slower than he expected. “I really thought it’d be a lot more faster,” Vaccaro said. “But I was prepared and it kind of slowed down in front of me as the game went on.” Saints rookie Vaccaro says tempo of Big XII had him prepared for first game | wwltv.com New Orleans Remember college rules are different when it comes to no huddle and letting the defense set up. Look @ Chip Kelly's offense @ Oregon it was play after play...no stopping to let the D set up. NFL refs have to let the D get set up before O can snap the ball. Thats all he meant. |

Re: Vacarro "NFL is slower than I expected".
I really fail to see where anyone see's arrogance in what he's saying. He's answering the questions asked of him. And when he's explaining the speed of the game slowing down for him he's telling the truth...in college he didn't get a chance to get time to set up and take a breather between snaps as he would in the NFL because of the rules.
I really hate that people want to write him off as arrogant to me he's confident in his ability and answering the questions asked of him. He's not being an ***hole or calling anyone out. |

He is not out soliciting the press, running his mouth like Rex Ryan saying this is the year, he is not calling out any other teams players or trying to make statements that he thinks he is a one man show. We seem to want a player that plays like Rodney Harrison but talks like Ghandi. There is absolutely zero comparison between K-Vac and TO/Ocho/Sanders/ Packman Jones etc.. |

Of course it's going to be slower. The NFL has more intensity, than speed, while College Football is paced quicker, as well as the players being speedier.

Re: Vacarro "NFL is slower than I expected".
He clearly stated the pace of the game was slower than he "expected"...his reaction was basically "i thought it would be non-stop like i was used too in the pac12".
He also clearly stated that it was "nice to get a break in between plays". Some of ya'lls comprehenstion skills need work. |
