Just an FYI, C J Spiller was also hurt last year

Yea me too. In fact I thought I saw at least a post a day from 90% of the posters here whining about the fact we gave too much money for him to be injured.

As to keeping quiet, that is just part of the game.

Byrd is never in anywhere near the ball
And usually 15 yards too far back

When he is, he gets blown away

He was turned around three times on a td in the Colts game
Burnt to the crisp in the second Panthers game - manage to grab an arm one play, stood still in the endzone while a lone Panther was in his zone area on a third and goal from the 17
Ran into Lewis on an obvious interception in another game

Pathetic

Big bust

Yes, it did look like Ryan had him playing too far off the ball. But thats the coaches fault.

And QB's often throw away from safeties. Brees is a master at faking the safety toward the right, then throwing left.

And you can't blame the Center Fielder for errors by the 2nd Baseman and Shortstop.

I'll give you point that they don't utilize Byrd best in their schemes. But where is the ball hawk we blew good money on that was going to seal a championship?

Watch Byrd's play really closely on NFL rewind in the Saints Panthers second game

3rd quarter. Panthers have a third and goal at 17 (from an offensive penalty)
5 guys in the endzone covering. One of the dbs on the left has to come up a little on a player. Byrd covers (oops, I mean stands there) the area next to him and just stands there as Gynn is the only guy within 10 yards of him and he is clearly his man to cover - wide open - Cam threads the ball in - 6 pts.

4th quarter. Receiver runs a post, starts to get seperation. Byrd is in perfect position as the receiver is coming right to him, he should make a play on the ball, int, or at least swat it away, instead he barely grabs the guys arm in interference and he waltzes 20 more yards into the endzone

14 points mostly attributed to Byrd

We lost by how many points in this shootout?

You've been on this board long enough to know that when it comes down to it, we can find a way to blame anyone for anything.

Lewis played with heart even right after the injury in the SanFran game

2013 or 2014?

Rugby Saint II · 04-24-2016, 12:52 PM

I'm actually much more excited about Lewis being back. With two lock down corners maybe Byrd will have less responsibilities and DA will play him a little more to his skill set.
