Saints searching for answers in secondary after rough start

Ever tried to sign your name with the opposite hand?

Maybe not that dramatic but that's what its like to do something to the point its motor skill/second nature and then have someone change something. It takes you 0.5s to think about it and in this league 0.5s is a lot about 5 yards of separation. If you get used to where another DB is and they swap that DB, same thing can happen.

We go through this every year.

Excellent analogy.

We are over thinking everything in the defense. DA is trying to get too cute like Payton does.

So cute is good for cheerleaders but not defense or offense? Sounds like a double standard to me

Spagnolo got too complicated and it ended in a bis ticket out of town for him... Might just be me but this feels familiar.

Not many know how to leave something that is working alone and not tinker with it.
