Hey, go easy on Fred Thomas. Everybody remembers the NFC Championship game where he got beaten like a rented mule, but for 3 or 4 seasons before that, he was a shut down corner. The Saints could put him on an island with the other teams best receiver and not have to worry.

just stay healthy, baby!

I think that is correct.

So Ken Crawley better be heads up from now on. Hope he can continue to man his side of the field as he has done so far. And Kenny Vaccaro can continue manning the slot receiver as well as he has so far.

Throwing his way is going to get close to Deon Sanders stupid. He's going to get better. That's how it was in college, stat wise, better throwing it in the dirt than his way. We also stole him in the draft lol! He should have been a top 5 pick. I could not believe he dropped that far. There are 5 picks above him that are doing next to nothing.

His play sucked but he had heart like a lion and never gave up. A shame the talent wasn't there because the guy had leader written all over him.

With one hand no less. Damn did we still have him that first NFCCG? Seems like decades ago.

Pretty sure Jason David was a zone corner primarily in the nickel package for Indy, that we brought in, put him at CB1 and made him play man coverage with Josh Bullocks and Kevin Kaesviharn at safety......

Jason david wasn't great, but he was victimised often due to other people's shortcomings.

Correct. David's best years were in Dungy's cover two. He was totally misplaced in the Saints' defense.
