That cush training camp in VW made them too soft.

Forget Deaderick, lets get John Jenkins back into the mix.

I wanted to put Jenkins in that spot, but I ain't got a clue about his status as of Oct 1st @ 4:35 pm. Most definitely put Jenkins in there...Bunkley's play has made Hicks and Jordan look less-than-average. I mean, dang, Hicks is a better fit at NT than Bunkley, in my opinion. Hicks is a freakin' monster in the middle, and pretty sure he'd have held his own against the Boys' interior better than Bunkley did.

Call up Vilma... hell it can't get much worse at LB....

I like the idea of benching the under achievers but I wouldn't suggest a mass benching until the Saints are out of playoff contention. Maybe target one or two of the worst to show the rest they're serious.

After the Saints are out of it, bench em all. Let the back ups get some experience cause these starters will have shown they're not the future.

It's too bad when players get their pay day, their performance falls off. What the H..l is the answer?

For your benching premise to work out it assumes those benched actually care and respond by being better. That's a suckers bet at best right now.

This is ridiculous.

I still think coaching is the problem.

Barry from MS

Honestly don't see the offense having nearly as many underachievers as the defense does. You may could make the case for Grubbs being in that group, since he ends up on his backside far too often for a starting NFL Guard.

This defense, however, is just littered with underachievement. And coaching is the problem when coaches allow players who are not performing to take snaps away from those players who can make this team better with their effort and with their play within the system.
