His rookie campaign was promising and I saw raw flashes and potential.

Not sure what's going on with LB talent evaluations. The Saints can draft talent on the D line and secondary however a total whiff drafting LB's or UDFA we bring in .

Maybe a clue.......
Joe Vitt
Assistant Head Coach / Linebackers

Well looks like he might get a shot today. Hope he doesn't lay an egg.

How did he do, did he play. I wasn't able to watch the game.

Ashley · 12-11-2016, 09:41 PM

I didn't see the game either, had to work.

He didnt look that great was a non factor. He was like the rest of the team . He did have one good play on the goal line run play for a loss. I think needs better coaching these bums that we have only stunts his growrh as a player however he needs to stop sulking and man up and be the player he wants to be despite the coaches

Was this indicative of his play today?

Short yardage guy but still a liability in coverage.

I would love to see him get the time to learn

And the coaching. Joe Vitt is a total liability and Payton is handicapping this team with his stubborn refusal to admit and realize this...

Dennis Allen has earned some cred this season and needs to step in and take over the Anthony reclamation...

Don't tell me this kid can't play after the rookie season he had...

In the NFL for only one season and gets a coordinator and scheme change?

Mike LBers are the quarterbacks on defense; so why a different standard for the QBs on offense getting a different scheme, coordinator?

I think he plays the run pretty well and I agree he is a liability in coverage. Ryan drafted him to play the middle in a 3-4 which I think he would be great, less field to cover and could be our thumper in the middle. I never liked the pick but his rookie season he did way more than I expected. Allen and his entire D staff need to go before they ruin anymore of our young players with their piss poor coaching. I also saw a TE take Jordan out of a play yesterday he could have mowed down that TE to make the play but played tiddlywinks with him instead. Him and Vaccarro should be up on that tradeing block for picks.
