Problem Children: Mullethead and Stonehands
Payton on Fleener: "it's still a work in progress...there's been moments but it hasn't been as consistent as we'd like"
Famous Amos stepped up and got a comment on Fleener's lack of progress... Know the rookie kicks with a low trajectory (not that Peat nor Armstead did their part)... And also know Crawley should have pulled that ball in... But in no way do I hang this loss on the rookies - they played out****ing standing in my book... The failure to run the ball more and to convert on third down because of drops by Fleener and Coleman (and to repeatedly keep trying to geaux to them) was the key failure of the game yesterday in the Meadowlands... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: Problem Children: Mullethead and Stonehands
For the first time in forever, a saints CB actually turned to look for the ball, that's what makes it so frustrating, the play was there to be made and he just didn't attack the ball in the air.

Re: Problem Children: Mullethead and Stonehands
Peat and Armstead on the right side on a FG? That's odd...

Re: Problem Children: Mullethead and Stonehands
I don't know, Coach Payton, he dropped balls in Indy and drops 'em here, so he consistently drops balls...
Wonder who the Saints pro scout was that recommended signing Fleener? |

Re: Problem Children: Mullethead and Stonehands
I know I didn't like it for sure. Somebody told me when he was first signed that he was fast, and I replied that he isn't football fast. He looks stiff when he runs with pads on.
somebody in this thread said he has no hops, either. That appears to be true. But mainly, I didn't like it because he always had the dropsies. I don't care if you have 100 yards receiving in a game if you are dropping passes and killing drives. This isn't fantasy football where stats are all that matter. He doesn't anywhere near consistently make tough catches. Right now, he is barely catching even the easy one's and isn't putting up those hollow numbers. he's just plain non existent. |
If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Re: Problem Children: Mullethead and Stonehands
It's not just drops. Dude is soft. Playing scared...
On that final drive we got delay of the game because he couldn't understand next play call. WTH It's like we are signing these guys just to add more dead money. |
