Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

We have openings on a Super Bowl contender

#5 is two years overdue.

I don't care to ever see him on the field again. Isn't there someone we can call who can swing his leg straight? Jeez. This is getting so old.

2 short blocked kicks in an NFL game is beyond failure. Losing happens but this is unacceptable when teams are kicking 64 yarders.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Why isn't anyone calling out the line that couldn't keep the lambs from blocking?

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

I think Hartley should have gone in 2011. Kasay came in and was a BOSS. Have said as much many times.

That said, he did get one cleanly blocked today. Is that because he's kicking too low, the line was weak, or the Rams were so high on cocaine today they just jumped for like 100 feet in the air? Unknown. Regardless, man I wish we never got rid of Kasay.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Don't know if we can stop them from jumping. That said, was the kick too low?

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Charles Brown should probably see a therapist for his Ovinaphobia.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Looked like the blockers were in the air, (I could be wrong) with their arms up

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Actually the first block was from around the side, whoever was blocking on the right side of the line was at fault for that one

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Thanks, because I actually closed my eyes for most of the game. I'm not kidding. I made Gumbo today and when things went bad it wasn't worth watching and I listened in the kitchen and nibbled on Gumbo most of the afternoon with friends and family.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

I wouldn't mind replacing everybody on the line except Jahri Evans. Brown is a career back up in my eyes. I wanted Strief gone for a long time. Grubbs gets done in every now and then. And DLP doesn't really allow Brees to step up like Goodwin used to. But we need to get two new tackles for sure.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Evans and Grubbs keepers for me, it seems like those two are always having to help out DLP or the tackles...

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

This year Strief has been our best OL, followed by Grubbs, then Evans

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

You guys need to go back and look at the second kick. It was NOT blocked. That ball was shanked. The defender NEVER touched it.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Anybody think Terron Armstead is ready to start? Him and Strief would be an excellent tackle duo imo.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

He's an upgrade over Brown, hope Brown rides the bench for the rest of the season.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

The big knock on Armstead coming out of college was that he needed to bulk up and put on some pounds before being ready to compete at an NFL level. I'd imagine 7/8 months with our training staff is enough time to add some muscle?

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

the kick was pretty much a line drive. He could have put it up more and the tip never would have happened.

Don't confuse rezburna with detais

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

How are the Saints going to buy a free agent LT??

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

By cutting over 15 million from the roster.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

I looked at it. Looked like the defender got a hand on it to me.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

Actually you can, its really simple, you block the straight on, almost like a runblock, that way you can push anybody that jumps to the ground.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

both blocks were right up the middle

Heartly did not get the ball up. neither DL broke through. they just jumped.

line drive field goals under 40 yards? no excuse. blame rest on the kicker.

Re: Attention free agent K's and LT's
 

back on topic

2014 FA at tackle are
Charles Brown
Bryce Harris
Zach Strief
Jon Stinchcomb

add in
Jimmy Graham
Jed Collins
Brian De La Puente
Malcolm Jenkins
Parys Haralson
Jonathan Vilma
and about a half dozen more

we are still over the cap even with this list of FA we need to sign and/or replace. Hell of a lot of holes to fill. No extra draft choices either.

this is why some of people were screaming in the off season to address this issue on the OL among others. as drew goes so do the saints. that sets your priorities right there. road games prove your an elite team or not.

SP and Mickey are the reason the OL has degraded since the super bowl year, They played to many games and trying to pull a rabbit out of a hat trick over he years has brought us to this.

We are a good team no question about it.
an elite team at home.
on the road proves we are not THE team in 2013

So signing free agents seems like a pipe dream. But something has to be done. Seeing our third round pick actually play a game would give us a better idea were we stand. right now i have him on the bust list and not to be counted on in 2014.

You thought last years off season was fun. then your going to love 2014

Que up you recording of HEY MICKEY
