SP seemed pissed

SaintsBro · 08-07-2015, 01:53 PM

I remember last year they had a really scrappy, sloppy, bad practice up there in the rain in Virginia, that was so obvious that the beat writers couldn't help but mention it. And they wound up going 7-9 on the year. I remember another year 2012, all during preseason and into the first game of the year, the team were getting called for sloppy penalties like too many men on the field on defense, guys jogging off to the sidelines, illegal formation, not enough down linemen on the line, etc. And that carried over into the year.

I'm not encouraged by what I'm hearing this year. Payton used to be so good at preventing this type of thing -- what the heck happened to him?

How you practice is how you play -- this is true in playing music, it's true in sports, it's true in flying an airplane, it's even true in being a doctor or surgeon.

Yep, large part no doubt. This is a mental problem and I don't care for it...because I am telling you that is sloppy football and there is no time for it. It wouldn't be as bad, but we had these same exact issues last season...that's what I don't like.

Granted, plenty of time to get it fixed, and better now than during the season, but nonetheless it is concerning consider similar issues during last season

Yea. Honestly I have not heard to much to get excited about this season so far except for a few individual performances. Injuries are starting to pile up too. Nobody seems high on Andrus Pete at all. I hear UDFA players are doing better. An offensive tackle taken as early as he was should at least be decent at a few different spots on the line. Payton seemed frustrated just like he did last year. It could be that they are just tempering their enthusiasm because of all the hype in preseason last year.

I would rather him be pissed now than surprised we suck later.

Last year everyone was ranting and raving about how good we looked, the fact that we are seeing the opposite this year is fine by me. It's not about how you start, it's about how you finish.

It's still quite early and remember SP did state that Peat would be somewhat behind in conditioning and playbook (missed some mini camp due to graduation).

Side note : not to throw stones at the Saints brain trust but up around these parts, coaches have been beaming with enthusiasm on La'el Collins thus far

.

I hate the Cowboys

Hahaha, I am not on this bandwagon, only on the 10 and 12 players defense issues is worrisome. Lol, I have heard a lot of pretty encouraging things too

jnormand · 08-07-2015, 02:26 PM

Well I'm glad he's pissed off. At least we know that guys aren't gonna just skate because the coaching staff doesn't give a rats ass. Get em ready Sean.

Good news: The Defensive problems were mostly mental. Too few players on the field...
The Bad News: Last years defense had a lot of mental mistakes too.

Payton said he noticed, and said he'll definitely get that fixed.

Yes, it appears he wasn't pleased at all.

Biggest problem with a "Players Coach" always seems like the players are less disciplined, but that's just my opinion

Which BTW is all I have ever heard of Haslett as a coach, players coach....

Tell ya what, if this **** continues into the season then I have had enough of Rob
