WhoDat I hate to step up to a moderator when I\'m just a young buck on this board but I\'ve got issues with Horn. I\'m not saying the guy isn\'t a good player, all I\'m saying is that he\'s not a team player or a leader and he\'s on the downside of a great career.

Ask any expert what \'s wrong with the Saints and the first thing out of their mouth will be leadership. As a whole, the team has a sense of laziness. It seems like players go down to The Big Easy and start taking it easy while putting forth as little effort as possible and still get paid millions. Maybe it\'s the water down there. Maybe it\'s the whole N.O. lifestyle. Maybe Haz let\'s the monkeys run the zoo. It could be alot of things, but the main thing is a major lack of leadership.

Just look at the roster and show me the leaders. Horn is supposed to be a wise old vet but he acts like a rookie. Yes he\'s a pro bowler, but what kind of an example does he set for the rest of the team? Brooks? Please, that guy couldn\'t lead the team in a prayer. Deuce? Quiet warrior. No one on the roster right now is respected enough to step up and be a leader. In the near future Will Smith will be the leader of the D because he is a class act and sets a good example on the field and off. He has skills and he doesn\'t have to remind everybody every few minutes about how he\'s the greatest DE in the league. It\'s funny, usually the second year player should learn how to carry himself from the four time pro bowler. In this case Joe could learn alot from Will Smith.
