There is my point in case, Beaux Vs A quick speedy WR is not a good match up.

Then again has any one really shut down OB? minimize his damage is what most have been trying to do.

I would love a CB that can man up with players like him.

Breaux can cover the TE's and slot. If he can own that role we are going to crush it from here on out. He can do it. If that happens all we need is an average offense which we do not have.

The offense has been average and pedestrian most weeks this season.

It's beginning to resemble a trend.

Underrated comment...

Offense this year is different, we don't need to rely on Brees throwing for 350 and 4TDs. That said, this offense looks shaky at times. For the first time I'm more comfortable with the D on the field than I am with the O.

The offense is No. 4 in the NFL right now, well, it was before the Seattle-Houston Fireworks...

Point being, we have a balanced, time of possession offense, and we've won five straight with that method...

I believe they're going to keep Crawley on the outside and Breaux will take snaps away from Von Bell. In case of a pass play turning out to be a run play Breaux is a all around talent, physical with great cover skills, I'll rather kept closer to the line cause Crawley is not good for disengaging blocker and making tackles like Breaux. Once his body becomes more acclimated to the game and he show his readiness to take over the starting position I'll prefer they keep Crawley on the outside.

Breaux vs those quick little slots would concern me. Breaux is a bit stiff hipped.

Could this allow the saints go to a true one on one coverage.

I dig that idea.

I am not comfortable with the front 7 play against the run though.
If they fail?
No one is home in the secondary for free RBs.

It is also a learned skill, better practiced in the lead up to a season.
If we are man to man and a DB peeks into the backfield to cover the run a second too long?

Buh Bye.
