I like what I saw Monday Night ... somewhat

Ok we lost. But there is a but to made here and I think it is a substantial but. Not a Kardashian size but, but a big But non the less.

For the first time I saw a Saints team fight, claw and scratch there way through 60 minutes of football against a team that without a doubt is one of the nastiest, dirtiest and ill tempered teams you will play in the NFL. The main reasons i have always like the Ravens myself.

They stood up and gave as much as the received and then some. This has nothing to do with the coaching at all. This is attitude. This is all about the players.

To me this was the biggest positive I have seen in this team in months.

Hey Rob want a blue print on building a front 7. you were given it last night.

Our depth stinks up front. The guys where beat down on both sides of the ball while the Ravens rotated at will without missing a beat. To me that is one of our biggest issue as a team. Causality of an abused cap

Now I have speak up for John Jenkins here. He did get made a fool of in the first series big time. But I think as the game went on his play improved. So i hold out hope that this will continue for the big guy. The guy needs to get that body fat percentage down a bit IMO. He looks a little to much like a huge teddy bear out there. All soft and squishy. The more he plays should solve that problem.

Next stand up for the UDFA out there! I am pleased with the bunch from last night. There be some talent in that group worth keeping around. They did more than any of of our draft picks or off season signings did. As usual this year. But you can not build depth by way of the UDFA alone.

Pierre Warren needs props. The kid walks into the building from another team's practice squad and plays an OK game. Adds in a huge impact play at the goal line. Causes and recovers a fumble all at the same time as making the tackle. That is something we have not seen a while. That is a trifecta my friends and something he must of picked up in Minnesota because as we all know that is not coached here. Strip first and try to tackle later is our style not the other way around. No i am not giving him the starter role but I have already shot the crow that I am going to serve Rob. If not i will eat it at the end of the season.

OH my hat is tipped to Dixon. I ride the kid hard on his play I know and well he deserves it. But that TD he gave up to Smith was probably the best he has covered all year. Shame he had no idea were the ball was despite having all day to locate it. The arms were flying and the hands were flapping. I almost fell out of my chair laughing as i cried when the ball fell into Smiths lap. Such mixed emotions. But his play was the best I have seen out of him all year.

If anyone can make of GIF of Dixons precious moment i would love to have it.

Sorry those were the two main UDFA players i was watching. To those i missed it was a good thing means you did not stink the place up. Edebali does deserve a shout out. He gets a hustle award. he was flying all the place.

At this point of the season and with the way players are dropping we need to look at this team with a different eye. I like what I saw despite the loss.
