If this were the regular season, I think he’d be on pace to have 30 fumble recovers or something.

I don't think so
Yes, they look atrocious, but they just have too many home run hitters (even if they are raw). They will have a couple of games against mediocre opponents where the talent gets a couple of big plays that win the game.

Hope it ’s not serious because I think he could be a surprise at safety.

Wow, the Raiders are bad, bad
I don’t want them to do that well but I want Jamarcus to not look terrible.
do you think he'll return them
in the game? Reggie will return the punts probably, especially if he isn’t going to start. it’ll be kickoffs and punts.

we should’ve dropped henderson this season and went out to get a good defensive player with his money. we have alot of capable backups

would yall prefer Arrington or Rod Harper on the roster?
I like Harper as a returner, but I think Bush is one of the best in the country at that. And Arrington is the better receiver.
WOW
Making a bad play into a great turnover.

when you play high pressure D
you’re going to give up some plays. I like the aggressiveness of G-dub. High risk, high reward
but at least we get the ball after each big play
that definitely works… we’re still pitching a shut out
time out for the right play
fumblerooski?

The Golden Toenail
Wow, for another week the Saints are looking great, hitting on all cylinders. Which makes me wonder…
… where does Reggie Bush fit in? I can’t see that we even need him.
Sure would save a lot of cap space.

A way-out-of-context question
I haven’t been able to watch the game…just following it on NFL.com, and not closely at that. Has Brunell actually looked as bad as his stats?

no
had a TD pass come back and 1 interception was just throwing up a hail mary

What can I say about today game? 38-0 going into the 4th? Awesome! Do you all know that by now we’re probably the statistically strongest team in preseason? (Most points scored/fewest allowed) Points to great things ahead!
Who looks good so far? Lynell Hamilton, PJ Hill (this RB battle IS heating up, ehh?) Meachem, Spicer, Gay, Moore…
Who looks bad? Hate to say it but Malcolm Jenkins. Hope it’s an off-day for him, cuz he’s misstepping and it ain’t pretty. On my watch, rush D looks better than pass D today. There were some high points, but Vilma (surprisingly Shanle) had good rush coverage. And Oakland ain’t too bad in preaseason (before today, were undefeated, put up a ton of points) so it is a great day to be a Saints fan!!!
Also, on a down note to wrap it up, special teams continue to look unimpressive. Jus sayin’

I love a Saints blowout!
I know it’s the Raiders and all, but it’s still nice to watch. Our guys look great! This is gonna be a great year. Check out the madd props Rotoworld gives Drew. I love this:
Drew Brees toyed with the Raiders Saturday, going 14-of-17 for 179 yards and two touchdowns in just more than one quarter of work.
Wow. Even for preseason, Brees was impressive. It’s not like the Raiders are swiss cheese in the passing game either, they finished 10th in the league last year. Brees is probably a safer pick at quarterback than Tom Brady, with Brady possibly having an even higher ceiling.
So much for the shut-out. The D was very impressive today.

Besides PT and Bush, what is everyone's ranking of the other 4 RBs?
I think I go with:
1.) Bell
2.) Hill
3.) Hamilton
4.) Donaldson
Any other opinions?
by TheBobLoblawBlog on Aug 29, 2009 6:06 PM CDT reply actions
Yeah,
I’m torn between Hill and Hamilton.
Hamilton ran for 5.94 yds/rush this game.
Hill went 6.73 yds/rush with 2 TDs
I’m just not sure there is a wrong answer

"I like our back end." -- Mickey Loomis, to Solomon Wilcots and Tim Brando during a press box interview in the 4th Quarter of the Saints-Bengals preseason game.
No source
Just his gut feeling. PT seems to be nagged with an injury and these other guys are looking pretty good. If they don’t wanna cut PT they can IR him til next year
yeah, I think there's way more to it than payton's letting on
and with Bush nursing something, (see my comment last night) I’m wondering exactly how our RB corps will shake out

Thanks everyone!
I’m going to have my post-game notes up in just a bit.
Wanna say something? Sign up! It's free!
Is it me?
or are the decisions of who stays and who goes this season tougher than any other Saints season in their history? (or what I am saying is ..do the Saints have more talent and depth than any other season especially at the “skilled positions?” My vote is yes and I think we have the strongest training camp of any team in the NFL as far as talent and depth are concerned.
I hope if some of these RBs who look very strong and are young
and who don’t make the 53 man roster can be on the practice squad. I think some of them could step right in if the need arises.
