Re: Colston
You can't know everything from one game, but you can draw a lot of pretty solid impressions. Football is not a 162 game season. You don't get to just settle in to the season as you go along. There's a very short time to get it together.

Re: Colston
The next two game are division games. 2-1 facing Dallas at home would make me feel good

Re: Colston
It's not just the first game he's done this though
Remember last year Week 1 - Fumbles and lost us the game Remember the game vs the 49ers, we desperately needed a TD and he dropped a wide open TD he used to make in his sleep. The guys done, send him packing, promote some young guys. I'm pretty sure he dropped between 4-5 passes, one of them was a costly turnover. |

Re: Colston
Colston don't look like he have that passion or hunger anymore. It's time for him to let it go

Re: Colston
Fairly easy to cover him. If he's not wide open the ball is likely getting swatted down. Even when open the drops are a real problem.

Re: Colston
WOW, just WOW.
Really? First game, on the road, new team, first real game for a huge number, against a good home team, and still in it with 2 minutes left playing sub-par Saints football. Now comments of Brees, Payton, Loomis, and Colston have to go? |

Re: Colston
Poor throw by Brees, Colston makes attempt, ball bounces Arizona's way. Providence, luck, whatever you want to call it, it went against us yesterday on that play. We didn't get torched by Palmer like I thought. We have a fair team that has lots of younger players with a chance to improve on the season. Some players come off injuries and we are better. I figure if we are 2-2 after 4 games it will be a good start.

Re: Colston
Colston has no separation at all now. Throw in the declining hands and it's just not fun to watch. He can easily be covered one on one. But, it's not like any of the other guys on the squad deserves the spot over him. With no Graham, the Saints need more four wides on passing situations with Colston, Cooks, Coleman and Snead. Use Colston or Coleman in the Graham role.

Re: Colston
We just played against 2 of the better corners in the game and you LSU fans should know that. How much separation did Cooks have? Good Lord guys it was the first game and this is what happens when your starters don't see much game time in preseason. Game speed is considerably faster than practice. I saw one pass drop I blame on Colston, the others were not in the best location when thrown.
