Awesome pic. You have taste. Good job.

Basically everything you said is very accurate. I would add that you just can never have enough premier pass rushers- not sure if we really even have one and if we do he (they) may sit out 4 games (x 2 = 8 player games)
pass rush is huge…gotta have it ..especially with the Saints recent history. If they try 1 or 2 pass rushes early in a game and get burned- the D loses confidence, the opponent gets emboldened and it starts falling apart. That’s why QB pressure is the defensive key for 2009.

I agree about the poor pass rush from last season. Better D coaching will make a huge difference this year. We must remember that the D-line was being coached by Ed Orgeron. He was a coaching bust! And, Gary Gibbs….well, we needn’t discuss him any further. He’s had soooooo much negative posting space devoted to him already. The additions of Bill Johnson and Gregg WIlliams will make a huge difference. They simply HAVE to be better than their predecessors. They just HAVE to!!!!

You have to remember this will be Arringtons year. I think he is going to set another standard and I feel Colston and Arrington are twins, thats the way they looked to me on the field, only difference is the Number on the jersey. 8)

When Watching him last summer they set him up opposite of Colston, everyone in the crowd " Ok which one is Which" Every catch he made was uttered " like Damn did you see the catch Coleston just made" What wait? that was Arrington?

People could not distinguish the 2 wile running patters, they are about the same height, Same build and same speed with great hands. Both are 7th round pics and If Arrington was not hurt before the start of the season last year then I feel we would have had another full wepon.

Now that hes healthy and Moore broke out last year, If he breaks out then LOOK OUT! These guys are going to be all over the field, with DBs trying to figure out who to cover, NO LBs will be able to keep up with these guys, Impossiable to happen.

Breese will be passing with all force with these recievers.

Remember this post, and Watch what happens.

And if we call it “The 2008 Saints: One Instep from Greatness” then it’ll be a funny play on words that alludes to our place kicking woes from the first half of the season that cost us a couple of wins that may have put us in the playoffs.

Needs to be on the front page.

I never thought Reggie was soft. A bit of a hothead, but not soft.

I can’t recall any other NFL running back that went down easier from contact than Reggie? Can anyone else? Reggie has a lot of value, and does a lot of good things, but again- any takers????

something he isn’t. He never was a bruising back. He’s a speedback. An elusive back. There’s nothing wrong with that. It wasn’t 8 games into last season, when he was leading the league in scoring.

I see Reggie being no different from what he was at USC, but he needs a solid line and a bruiser to complement him to do that. When he hits 30 he can just become a WR. But who knows. Just give the guys 20 touches a game is all I ask. He’ll produce!

I agree that Reggie cannot break tackles, i can’t give you clear cut examples but I’ve definitely seen a few DT’s stick their arms out and somehow manage to bring him down on countless occasions. I know that just like all of you other SaintHeads, I watch every single game, and I’m not impressed with Reggie’s leg strength (and size for that matter) at all. But I’ll take him on my team any day

they aren’t much bigger than mine in fact. I’ve told him to work them out more but he says it’ll make him slower. Lol ;)

but he can break their ankles in the open field. he just needs to be used properly. if he developed a better inside game, i’d love it, but for now, i want the saints to win. start winning and then we can let reggie mix it up in the trenches…. for now… just score!
