Re: 5 former Saints cornerbacks land with new teams

The good news is that we still have one really good CB, seemingly working his way back toward elite. The scheme needs to be adjusted (simplified) for the secondary. DA likes all these exotic looks but clearly it isn't working. Let them get back to doing what they did last year and I'd be willing to bet Crawley would start to play better, probably the safeties too. Rez has said it over and over again, we don't have the personnel for the types of coverages they're trying to run. So line them up in front of their guy and let them f***in handle their business, like last year. Losing P Rob is still gonna hurt but them's the breaks. If the rest of the secondary is playing well and the front 7 keeps improving that'll be easier to make up for. Can't have multiple mf's running wide open downfield several times a game. That crap is what'll sink us if it isn't fixed.

If you watch the replay of the TD the Failclowns scored after we gave them another shot by lightly touching the center, our guys can be seen in the end zone, clearly confused about who was responsible for the guy who scored. Just line up and play.

Holy crap! Our whole season is crushing down into a horrible cesspool.

I really think it’s a result of not having the talent to outplay their opponents so they had to try to out scheme them. Now they have the talent but continue to try and out scheme offenses as opposed to just playing our guys to their strengths.
Just let them play.
