Improved D says Bobby and Deuce

My biggest fear with DB40 is pass interference calls.

NFL has been trending towards calling the most insignificant crap, and Breaux can be very physical at times.

*This is not a criticism of Breaux, it's directed towards the ridiculous PI calls the NFL uses to steer games. But they have to be factored in.

It's a valid point, Breaux had his eyes opened in his first NFL game when he got called for PI and holding calls. After that his technique improved quite a bit.

At this point in time he is our best player in the secondary, however there are a couple points I hope he is trying to improve on;

He struggled at locating deep passes, often falling over (see the colts game, it's a rough watch...) and he was beaten easily on multiple pick plays near the goal line.

That was probably just inexperience. Also a couple of those calls prevented a td.

I like what I'm hearing but it just seems too good to be true. Keep in mind it's Deuce, Bobby, and the rest of the media that is in camps job to hype us up for the season. They help the organization sell tickets and everything else, so their is a ton of bias. Also keep in mind that they are also Saints fans in addition to former players. I would like to read more reports from outside sources who have visited several camps.

I am pretty sure Hebert said we would be lucky to win 6 games last year. I remember someone posted that on here so I am not sure that is 100% true
