Ok the good the bad and the ugly

So.... how about our turnover-making-machine defense?

The GOOD for me .... Roll tide was very good and so was Khiry. Cooks did a lot of things well and will be dangerous once he is on the same page as Brees. Griffin did some really good things and will definitely challenge Luke for the #2 QB spot.

The BAD ... Baptiste was surprisingly slow to the ball, didn't square his hips and appeared to be a step behind.

And the UGLY... Coleman = yuck.

Rough start, but some serious moments.
Ingram was the shocker of the game. He was running insane.

Both o-lines looked compromised. We did have a few starters held out.

No Byrd, limited action for Lewis, Vaccaro, Robinson...and our back up CBs are pretty bad. Back up safeties look awesome though, Pierre Warren dropped an easy one tonight.

Exactly!

I could see Byrd and Lewis racking up INTs if our d-line keeps getting pressure like that. If we get some pressure off the edge we'll get some FFs too.

Anyone else notice that Khiry doesn't go down on the first hit? Dude is a tackle breaking machine.

I think Byrd will go on IR and be the one designation that can come back and play after the deadline.

Why is that? He is already practicing; they would have already put him on IR and brought in somebody else if that was the plan...

Very Pierre Thomas like. His running style isn't much like PT, but he has that same way of slip-sliding around tackles and slithering himself through tiny holes. He's the real deal. If we don't have at least a top-10 running team this year I'll be surprised.
