Lots of check-downs by Bridgewater tonight...

Please avoid injuries at all costs. That's all I care about here.

Looks like...a preseason game...

But my initial takeaway is the o-line has looked pretty darn good...

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
Payton looks slightly annoyed with the rhythm the offense is showing...

Nick Easton is not Senio Kelemete - he's a Center, not a Guard...

Could open the door to a roster spot for Clapp, who's arms still look underdeveloped - the man needs some guns...

Very conservative tonight.

McKoy is doing a good job in the middle.

Same here, they look promising.

Pass Rush was non-existent without Cam in there - most troubling aspect of the game so far...

Very impressed with him. He looks fantastic.

Are Saints CBs contractually required to not find the ball? It seems QBs just flutter it up there for the reciever... and our defender just flops over themselves.

I hate to say it... but Davenport does not look too good so far.

Teddy gonna get killed out there

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
And Eli Apple needs to get some of those old school Eric Dickerson glasses if he can see the ball...

Man that was so basic, bad...

Good thing it's preseason, things look a little rough.

K Major 08-09-2019 08:22 PM

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
D line needs to be dog cussed.

We're getting beat up front. Davenport is getting doubled a lot and Trey can't win one on one match ups.

PRob looks rusty as hell.

jeanpierre 08-09-2019 08:22 PM

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
The depth at LBer, Biegel (SLB), Ellis (MLB), Robertson (WLB) looks great...

Depth on the defensive line, not so much...

Really disappointed with the second unit defensive line, especially when defense should be ahead of offense at this point of the season...

At its worst, its a preseason game; at its best, its 60 minutes of Saints football writing over the last 60 minutes of Saints football that's been burning through my skull like the elephant's foot of Chernobyl.

Underwhelming. I'm not completely sold on his intensity or toughness. Sorry. It's what I see.

No penalty for going after Teddy's knees??

Dan Arnold just showed great situational awareness...

...and he's making this team, again...

Teddy ...

He's very accurate. I can live with that.

Yep... he’s not going away quietly. I see Alize Mack either getting the redshirt or going to the practice squad.

JRodgers ... the ATL reject with butter all over his hands on the 2 pt attempt.

Let's see what Ozigbo can do next half.

ChrisXVI 08-09-2019 08:35 PM

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
Quick note on that Dan Arnold TD... Cyril Grayson got in front of him and laid an excellent block to clear a little room for Arnold to stretch for the goal line.

jeanpierre 08-09-2019 08:35 PM

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
Bridgewater has been very inconsistent tonight, to be expected as he'll need more reps to get back into things...

Had to mute the local telecast with Vilma campaigning for Bridgewater like every throw was incredible when they were average throws...

Have been pulling hard for Grayson and Arnold and they may have won roster spots with their plays...

Really want to see Arnold get another chance in The Dance to redeem that NFCCG end zone play...

JP,

I'm watching the game out of Minnesota (KMSP) with 2 Viking announcers. They are saying similar things about Teddy. He's not a bad quarterback boss and done a lot of good things tonight.

jeanpierre 08-09-2019 08:38 PM

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
Thought Murray looked great, especially on that scamper where he gained five yards but evaded like six tacklers running east to west...

Major, not saying he's awful, he's just a game manager, he's not going to win games on his shoulders with the play he's shown...

But to hear Vilma on the local telecast, geez, Vilma's worst than a West Bank Used Car Salesman or a Preacher from the East...

What y'all think about the 1st half?

jeanpierre 08-09-2019 08:42 PM

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
Vince Biegel looks terrific, as do all the second team LBers tonight...

Not saying that just because the defensive line can't get a win in one-on-ones (and Davenport wasn't double-teamed every play)...

These guys have got some work to do with Coach Nielsen...

Right up until we didn't finish it with the 2-pt conversion - can see now why Sean keeps signing RBs...

Let's see if we can geaux with Ozigbo...

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
I think it’s going to be another slow start for our defense again this year.

D line needs a lot more work. Zero pass rush.

Murray, McKoy and Kamara stood out in just a few snaps.

Smash, so they let a coonass call a Saints game, preseason?!?

Goodell getting ready for the reality he's going to be deposed...

Re: Saints vs Vikings Game Day Thread
 
Pass rush is big fat F so far. Liked our LB play for the most part. Secondary... ugh.

Offense not good but not bad. Teddy drove the ball, so arm is there. Cyril looked really, really good. Murray looks good to me. Smith had a drop but made a play or 2.

Spec Teams look good in coverage.

That's the negative I'm taking from tonight...

The positive - we've found some talent in our LBers and in Arnold, Grayson...
