Gifs of Roman Harper Missing Tackles vs the Saints Last Night
this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Originally Posted by spkb25 One player cannot lose a game, I agree, but I just saw some Panther's fans questions and apparently they're saying the same thing we did. It was something like why do we keep him in there ...

If they wanted to win that game, their scapegoat should be their offense. Zero points off of 2 consecutive turnovers to start a game is Gawd-awful & terrible. Score 10 points in a game with the Saints, you are gonna lose. You complete 10 passes, turn it over twice, and have 231 yards of offense, more than likely you are gonna lose to anybody in the NFL. Misplaced anger by Pantie fans. But they can blame Harper all they want...they really should keep Scam running that offense. |

They didn't put the loss on Harper, what do you mean? I said they just questioned the point of keeping him or starting him due to the missed tackles and getting burnt.

When I said you can't blame one player for a loss that was a reply to you having made that comment previously. What the fans said about Harper, and that comment, were not related.

Re: Gifs of Roman Harper Missing Tackles vs the Saints Last Night
spkb...you're right. I misread it. My bad. Thought they placed the loss on Harper, so I misread that.
In fairness to Harper, I see plenty of Strong Safeties week-to-week miss tackles and get blown up in coverage just like the original link posted on here. Harper ain't the best, but he ain't the worst, either. |

Harp's a professional and I remember a lot of blitzes where he sacked the QB or came up and stuffed the run.

And that idea was shown to be foolish. It's nothing personal against Harper, but he plays for the other side now and I have no sympathy for that reason. He's not that good of a player. He's a role player who people keep trying to make a starter.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Re: Gifs of Roman Harper Missing Tackles vs the Saints Last Night
Panthers fans and Who Dats both agree that man is terrible in coverage....Sometimes it hard to believe how many fans here thought he was worth keeping....we all have opinions but can someone PLEASE throw 3 consecutive seasons of positive stats in here because I really don't see where he was good besides Gregg's first year as DC

Re: Gifs of Roman Harper Missing Tackles vs the Saints Last Night
One of the hardest things to do is tackle a guy running straight at you in the open field. If that guy happens to be a good enough athlete to make it to the NFL he's not supposed to get tackled in that situation. Granted some guys are better at it than others but most are going to whiff as often as not.
