Re: Preseason: Saints @ Ravens, Who Looked Good? Who, well, not so much?
 

Our whole season depends on how well the O-Line can come together. The defense sure as hell ain't winning any games for us and if Brees can't step up in the pocket we're sunk.

Know Your Sean Payton Terminology - Hidden Yardage

Sean Payton made a point to identify a trio of New Orleans Saints who stood out for the right reasons in Thursday night’s preseason loss...

“I thought Murphy returned the ball exceptionally well,” Payton said of Murphy, who returned five kickoffs for 132 yards, with a long of 32...

...Payton said Murphy “showed great courage” and “thought his instincts were pretty good.”

Payton also mentioned rookie cornerback Damian Swann, who had one big interception and two costly penalties. Payton said Swann, “made a few good plays in the secondary; that was encouraging.”

Last but not least, Payton praised one of the Saints’ biggest acquisitions of the offseason -- new center Max Unger...

“I thought Max Unger in his first game did some really good things,” Payton said.

As for the bad and the ugly...Payton said the coaches officially counted the Saints as finishing minus-211 in “hidden yardage” because of things like yards gained after penalties that kept drives alive.

“That’s a real high number,” Payton emphasized.

The Saints had a whopping total of 16 penalties for 143 yards in the loss.
