Re: NO SUGAR-COATING IT: Saints O-Line is TERRIBLE
Well let's see there was off the top of my head.
the Bountygate scandal Vicodin fiasco Aledged wire taping thing Weather they are true or not this regime has been surrounded by tremulous events In college the have lack of institutional control you could say this regime falls in that relm Look I'm not saying it has been all bad but to sit here and think this regime should not be accountable for the crap they have done is wrong. I just ask how long is the head coach and GM going to receive a pass for underachieving. Payton is the highest paid coach in the NFL for what mediocrity. 5 winning seasons 4 losing seasons and 1 8-8 year come on how long does an Superbowl buy these guys. |

Methinks it's safe to say they'll be no kicking of the Championship "Tyers" or 105 Octane "Petrol" in "Ye Old Tank" this year!!!

Re: NO SUGAR-COATING IT: Saints O-Line is TERRIBLE
Making everything work is a whole lot more complicated than we think.
Individual performances weaved into a team effort on a budget - weekly. Payton has had a revolving door trying to find someone who can do what he does on offense with a defense. It's just not easy. I'm concerned about what I've seen so far too. But I'm nowhere close to demolishing and rebuilding. I've seen some ugly football. And this is nowhere close to that. Not by a long shot. |

I'm sure the coaches and front office alike realize how potentially devastating the loss of Brees could be, anyone with a brain and eyes understands that.
Aside from the o-line and coughinjuriescough what else do we really have to worry about? This team looks to have a ton of young talent, more than I think I've seen at one time in all the years I've been a fan, mixed in with a pretty strong group of veterans. There's a lot to like and a lot of reason for hope. Real football is almost here ladies and gentlemen, and goshdamnit I'm excited about it. We all should be excited. It's okay to be excited people! |

Re: NO SUGAR-COATING IT: Saints O-Line is TERRIBLE
I went to practice and sat next to the O-line and watched them closely. They don't seem as athletic as the D-line. In fact the O-line doesn't look athletic at all. They plod along. Between the whistles and horns(drill changes) their position group stands closer than any other. So, I think they are a close unit. But it's not a talented group. You could see it in position drills and throughout practice.
Watching Peat run gassers was pathetic. The fans groaned watching him run. Someone said he got lapped. He's soft and doesn't have the energy to be tough in the trenches. He's still young though ya'll. We may be able to toughen him up with another year or two in the NFL. He looked much better this year with a year in an NFL weight training program and I think he will continue to develop. |
