I'm surprised no one has picked up Gary Barnidge yet. As for Fleener, I really hope he shows up this year in key moments.

I wondered why we didn't even bring him in when he was released. I figured it was probably because of the amount of a contract he would have wanted.

As far a Fleener goes, terrible terrible terrible. The guy is another free agent failure that we decided deserved a big contract. Can't stand the guy, he is nothing special. I will be happy when we can move from him.

The D looked good last night. I still have concerns and want stir that kool-aid, yet. The Chargers O-line was missing both T. This game reminded me of Gregg Williams blitzing San Fran in 2011 in preseason, it looked great but when playoff time rolled around San Fran knew exactly what to look for, we all know how that turned out. Glass, spoon, water and Kool-aid is still on the shelf in my house.By game 6 we should have a very good ideal what our D has or hasn't got. I'll take the win, it's been awhile.

Man..I don't care who they were playing..that D looked good! I will take it! It has been a good while since we seen that kinda speed from lb's in a Saints uniform. And regardless who was in the lineup from any preseason team we face, playing like the way we did, gives confidence to the players.

Barnidge would easily "eclipse" Fleener...

great showing against one of the worse OL in the NFL and a team that might have worse QB depth than we do, well maybe not.

Hagan, with my daughter starting her Freshman year in Honors Program and seeing your post made me want to dig out Plato's Phaedrus Dialogue and re-read the Chariot Allegory...

Way to be the voice of reason and temperance and not let us get too happy nor too proud...

But I do believe the effort and energy of swarming to the ball is something we've not seen in some time...

And I look for the team to build on that momentum to finish the PreSeason and to build throughout the season...

Hagan,

What about week #1 Pre season game vs the Dogpound? Osweiler and minus Joe Thomas were damn near shut out as well against the 1's? I think you are selling the Saints defense a little short.
