Nailed it. My starting 3 LB's at the moment would be Anzalone, Robertson and Davis, with Te'o swapping in and out like he did last year.

Demario Davis has had as many mis-tackles and missed assignments as anyone...

Would love to be an invisible man in the room and try to figure what Dennis Allen is asking of these linebackers...

Can't help but wonder what Anzalone (Will) - Robertson (Mike) - Stupar (Sam) wouldn't produce "smarter" play...

It's the same damn scenario! Square peg........round whole. It is Sean Payton and his evil genius tendencies bleeding over I'd betcha'! We keep bringing in MLB year after year in free agency and paying them good money then moving them to another position. Enough Already!

Actually, besides Okafor I question our veteran scouting dept in almost every aspect.....however, we've done OK bringing in vets late in the year. It's the damn free agency that's killing me!

Stop the experimenting and trying to out scheme the competition. We need to play better assignments and settle into a rhythm at LB'er where we have starters who make plays from the same position week in and week out and build chemistry. :argue:

Never liked the thought of having a guy in and immediately trying to change positions. Huge gamble.

Welcome to Sean Payton's Saints. He can never leave a good player where they are on D.

Thank you good sir......I could not think of his name. None the less he does not impress me in the least. He is way too hit or miss to suit me. He is one of the few good old boys left from Paytons posse.

And what makes you think it isn't Dennis Allen and Mike Nolan making these calls ... as is their responsibility? I'd be shocked if Payton would be making LB position decisions. Player acquisition I can easily see, but not micro managing the defense to that degree.

If you remember back to when all those false accusations of "bounties" happened it became known that Payton never even stuck his head into a defensive meeting. He was always totally hands off. Now, I am sure he has more oversight these days, but not to the extreme of which you are implying. Nolan would walk in a minute if he didn't have most of the say in the matter. THAT'S why he was hired!
