Re: Film study: Reviewing Saints defense By Mike Triplett
We played zone at times last year and it was successful. We have 2 new starters in the secondary now though. Players don't know each other as well. You have to have much better communication and teamwork to play zone.

Yeah, but we never had WRs being covered by LBs. The LBs they had in coverage were bad. Why didn't they used Humber or Powell? And the zone was mixed in with man to man.

The timing was off on defense last week. Hopefully we've had time to get the kinks worked out.

Re: Film study: Reviewing Saints defense By Mike Triplett
It seemed like a decent enough game plan, stop the kill shots and hold them in the RZ on a high level understanding. It would have worked if their kicker didn't have a bronzed leg. Seriously, how many kickers can make 2 clutch bombs like that, it's just not very likely. Cleaning up the tacking alone would have been enough.

Re: Film study: Reviewing Saints defense By Mike Triplett
1st half we gave up 10. Hit my number right on the head.
10 per half is good defense; 1 touchdown and 1 field goal. 2 touchdowns and 2 field goals for an entire game (to me), is good defense. Down hill after that. Last year things got tighter as the game went on, Sunday looks like the screws fell out late. Maybe that's the kick in the butt they needed. |

Re: Film study: Reviewing Saints defense By Mike Triplett
all of this advice from people who could never qualify for one single play in the sport of professional football
your words mean nothing other than they prove some of you are disloyal fans. when you've earned your own super bowl ring, i'll give a **** what most of you think about professional athletes. just sayin. |
