Ok the good the bad and the ugly

The Dude · 08-09-2014, 02:09 PM

I'm watching again and Ingram is def a bright spot. I do think our 1st string need some work. I realize our passing offense was not up to what we expect but Bree's is hurt I get that. Bradford didn't play either so it was pretty even as far as starters being in but the Rams out played us when most of the starters were in.
I saw some missed blocks (graham) and so
E blown coverage. There is room for improvement. I did see some good coverage on ST, hope that carries into season.

Lelito's 1st game at Center and Grubbs, Evans, Stills, Lorig and Brees out.
We didn't have anything even close to our starters playing in that game.

They had their fair share out too. Including two of their best defensive players, but I do see your point.
I didn't see PT out there, any news on him? Figured they are just not risking injury?

PT has some sort of injury. Payton didn't say exactly what it was, but Holder/Triplett both said he was out with injury.

What good did you see on ST?

The drop off from Brees to Mccown is far worse than Bradford to Hill. Bradford hasn't done anything in this league so in my opinion there isn't really a drop off at all.

Here is our list of starters that did not play:

Drew Brees

Jairus Byrd

Pierre Thomas

Champ Bailey

Ben Grubbs

Jahri Evans

Kenny Stills

Erik Lorig

Victor Butler

Kind of long.

I saw some good coverage, the return game def needs some work.

Tyrunn Walker was an absolute hoss last night!

bad -
CB depth does not look to be improved. the second and third year players all seem to pick up were they left off. so it will be a long year of praying to stay healthy. white still at his best with the play in front of him.

OL looked good for the most part and Litto did well except for missing a couple of stunts. Saints need to keep an eye on the waiver for back ups. I was not to impressed with the depth as a whole.

DL inside looks set. i like the showing of the dack ups. DE is an are that did not shine but it looks to be better than last year. we need to work on Jr backup.

WR - I have to wait till Drew returns. Coleman stunk up the joint. hit it the face with a ball. i almost fell out the chair LMAO. Toon? for a man his size he runs like a wimp. at least he caught the ball. but lack of effort to get yards after the catch leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

ILB - another year of quick quick throws up the seam will kill us again this year.

good - it is the first preseason game.

I was watching the ILB.'s as close as I could last night and you nailed it, quick slants will hurt us bad. Lofton blew his assignment I believe on a rb. and that can't happen often he is slow in coverage anyway, Hawthorn at least tried to cover his man. Bottom line unless we get a ILB that can do both or bring in 1 of the 50 safetys we have to play the low box it will be the same.

Anyone having trouble replaying this on a NFL network /game pass subscription? Really annoying.
