Re: 2014 Saints Preseason Games Released
I know it will not happen but I'd like to see Sean break the preseason down into each game having a focal point. Game 1 100% passing Game 2 100% rushing From my point it makes evaluation of the offense much easier. I remember the Pats did a barely all rushing game or drive last preseason. |

Re: 2014 Saints Preseason Games Released
Yeah, I know. I meant it more like, Rams and Titans, who cares about them -- it will be a good pair of games to just throw some talent out there and evaluate it, but I"m not exactly gonna be super pumped up for those two particular opponents or games.

I've always wondered why more coaches don't just use these games as a practice. Like you said, maybe one preseason game you never punt. It tests your 4th down conversion team and lets you see how the defense reacts if they have to cover a short field. Or in another game, punt a lot to work on coverage units, even on 3rd down if necessary. Or perhaps use an entire half to do nothing but run the ball to work on run blocking/power run game. You can probably combine this with the extra punting, or the going for it on every 4th down. |
