Should we Hold ?

Saintaintso · 09-10-2014, 01:23 PM

Made ATLs offensive line look like they killed a bunch of Pro bowlers.

Makes Seattle unbeatable ...

Just sayin , if the league isn't going to call it , why waste Drews prime trying to goody two shoes things ?

Goodell already destroyed our Image.

Why not be the bad guys ?

The refs would be on us like ants on a fish head

Personally, I am getting a little weary of the whole Junyah crabwalk, sprinter-on-the-blocks, lowdown thing. It doesn't seem to be helping. It looks like something out of a cartoon, like he should be scooting along on his fingertips making little xylophone noises. I think it's actually inviting people to hold him, and not be seen, the way he's coming at them from so low down, he gets held and pushed and mauled and the refs can't really see it. I don't care if he starts out in a full-on yoga position, like a guru, I just wanna see some results. Man up, Junior, get some sacks! That was a third string tackle you were facing!

It does seem that we get called for minor infractions while other teams blatantly hold and get away with it. Maybe we could just do a better job of tackling???

I think we should at least try and see if we can get away with it like other teams do.

But as others have said we probably would get flagged more than we did during the Titan game. We're the Saints, we don't get to do that kinda stuff.

hell holding hands could not hurt

Only on 1st and 10... we might get lucky.
Never on 3rd and 7...the ref in the box will throw his flag from upstairs.

you sound like atlanta fans

We do hold, every team does, every game on o-line.

If the refs called every offensive line holding penalty the games would last 8 hours.

But seriously

I'm very curious about this whole thread.... Did the loss to Atlanta make everyone so distraught that your contemplating solutions for problems that do not exist?

Drew Brees season totals:
Sacks - 0
Hit - 0

Why on Gods green earth would you risk a penalty for no gain?

This is not the 2013 season any more and our offensive line holding will not help our defensive backs get to the QB.

Go play a round of golf or something to clear your mind before you start talking about trading Brandin Cooks to help our CBs cover.

I know I'm thinking way outside the box on this one, but.... If it isn't broken so not fix it.
