Four Areas the 2014 New Orleans Saints Must Get Better In

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Here’s something you didn’t know about the New Orleans Saints offense last year: they led the league in holding penalties with 31 I really don't see this much of an issue; I'd rather lead in holding if it keeps Drew ...

I really don't see this much of an issue; I'd rather lead in holding if it keeps Drew from being destroyed as much...

If they're holding, that means their blocking's ****. As long as their blocking's ****, then Drew'll keep going down...

But if and when they get beat; I'd rather a holding flag rather than watching Drew pick himself up looking through his ear holes

As an OL-player myself I completely agree. If I get beat I'll still do whatever I can to keep my QB upright. If that means holding or cutting a guy from behind or just wrestle him to the ground I'll do it. It will garner a flag and a yelling from coach but I take that to protect the cube.

Oh, I absolutely agree. I'm just sayin' the blocking last year was bad. They got beat a lot. Still not sure if it was the players or the coaching -hopefully not both. Just like most QBs, you start hassling the QB and they'll start throwing INTs. Our OL allowed far too many INTs last year.
