Re: The Good and the Bad...

Good:Cooks, obviously. PT, Ingram and Robinson all looked great.
Bad:PRob and Vaccarro were useless. I saw a lot of plays where we rushed 4 and got good pressure but Ryan got rid of it real fast to PRob or Vaccarro's man. Either they've gotta cover better or we've gotta somehow hide them. Jimmy Graham looked disinterested. Not trying for possibly catchable balls, sliding or running out of bounds to avoid a one on one hit with a 200lb DB is unacceptable. He reminds me of Lance Moore with the ball in his hands.

Where were our feared pass rushers? Sorry play by the ends/ outside linebackers.

Re: The Good and the Bad...

The Good:
Offense. Everything about the offense was what I expected; Cooks looked great, rushing attack was alive and Brees looked on target with plenty of time to throw. Play calling could have been better, I would have liked to see more running plays.

The only, and I do mean ONLY bright spot on defense was our ILB play. After watching the game over again Lofton and Hawthorne played really well aside from the Rogers TD. This is odd because everyone including myself thought they were the weak-spot.

The bad:
Defense. DBs and the D-line played awful. In-fact they played worse then the 2012 team did at any point during that season. Not kidding here, this defense gave up more yards in week 1 than our 2012 defense gave up in any game all year (and they were the worst ever).

People really need to get off the nut sack of the 2009 season.
Starting to sound like Cowboy/49'er fans...
