For the stat guys ...

Coleman has been penalized once in 3 years. One time.

I agree, that's disciplined /smart football by Kurt.

When considering my memory...



Just sayin'...

Y'all need to pay attention to that stat that Major cited - it's HUGE...

If you're watching the games, you should know we play more Heavy Nickel than any other package...

In fact, we play it more than any other including what was considered our base set of 4-3 under...

And in short - this is our year - no short-changing it now; we need quality depth for a deep run...

That's why I'm banging the table for front seven and interior line...

We've got the starters across the board, but we know injuries happen...

We had nearly 20 starters, impact players go to IR, and we came within one play of a Championship Game...

You're gonna tell me just one of those 20 couldn't have kept if from coming down to what it did?

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

Re: Saints sign Kurt Coleman

That is a lot of coin to spend on for “depth”. And he has knee problems. Another potentially solid player watching from the sidelines.

He'll play plenty whether he starts or not - good health assuming of course.

Now, let's get some more help, depth for that defense, Free Agents the Saints need to have a conversation:

LB Tahir Whitehead

LB Zach Brown

DE Muhammad Wilkerson

DE Adrian Clayborn

DE Brent Urban

NT Dontari Peo

CB Morris Claiborne

CB Rashaan Melvin

CB Patrick Robinson

CB Aaron Colvin

And with Honey Badger CB Tyrann Mathieu possibly hitting the market, that helps the price on DB Lamarcus Joyner who'd be solid in the slot...
Adrian Clayborn would look good in black and gold.
