Along with the rest of us.

Sometimes when players are benched they tend to sulk and pout. Ken did the exact opposite. He's been a dawg. I'm just glad coaches decided to make this move now rather than later.

Re: Ken Crawley's interception against Miami caps impressive individual comeback after starting season on bench

From what I've read...
Our 1st 2 games we played mostly zone... Harris> Crawley
Our last 2 games we played mostly man... Crawley> Harris

I think our base defense going forward will be mostly man, so Crawley should see more PT than Harris.

But again, I'm just a wannabe coach. Just my opinion

We should have been running man most of the time anyway.

Marshon Lattimore - Man > Zone
Ken Crawley - Man > Zone
P.J. Williams - Man > Zone
Delvin Breaux - Man > Zone

Question for the forum, how good will our secondary be when we have all four of these corners available?

They'll be as good as the pass rush that complements them, but the personnel talent level is no longer unsatisfactory...

Lattimore, without a doubt is the truth and the only limits, concerns on his stellar play and repid development will be his past health cropping up...

Crawley has done nothing but continue to improve and elevate his play since he put on a Saints uniform, his haters are no where to be found now...

PJ Williams is a near clone of Tracy Porter and will provide good solid play at the position and will from time to time elevate his game in spurts...

I don't see Breaux back to his peak this season, but likely having some impact in spelling, rotating with the corners, keeping them horses fresh...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Keep PJ in the slot ... he's been effective there. Lattimore & Crawley on the boundaries until further notice.

And the three safety sets seem to be effective as well...Raphael Bush had an amazingly timed sack and tackle...

I agree, we played man all pre-season and looked great, made absolutely no sense to change that up.

IMO- Lattimore and Crawley have earned the starting spots. Both are playing at shutdown levels. Looking back at our sacks this week, most came from solid coverage.
