Sunday Divisional Round Games

[rodeo]

Brees was due like 3 INTs against us, we just couldn't take advantage. Vikings defense is legit.

It's crazy how different the saints are away from the dome...

Wilks is watching this wondering why the Vikings just aren't spamming a blitz package every snap

So that’s what a safety looks like...huh

we been watching Kurt Coleman get burned and whiff on tackles for a whole season. He profited off norman taking away a whole side of the field and when more responsibilty was put on Coleman he failed miserably. 

I'd cut Coleman.  Adams probably retires  hes too old . Draft 2 young safteys just like we draft Star and Short in 2013.Or 1 Saftey and a DE

It is a safe thrown if thrown in the right place. Either your receiver will catch it, or it will go out of bounds. Assuming you have a taller receiver, it should be successful more times than not and rarely result in a turnover

Yes, I've been watching football for 50 years, I know what a fade pattern/throw is and why its used.

And, like I said, unless you can provide me evidence otherwise, I've rarely seen it work.  "Assuming you have a taller receiver and if he runs to the perfect spot in the end zone and if the QB makes the perfect throw etc. etc. etc."

Quick slants or "pick" formations have a much better chance for success around the 5-yard line.

Coleman would've made that pick too. For some reason Brees was perfect against us and now terrible against the Vikes. That was just a bad throw, solid play by the D but mainly a terrible throw. Ginn was wide open. Playing at home in their dome vs on the road in MN probably has something to do with it.

Saints ran into real DBs. Both our corners and both our safeties are lucky if they start on another team 

Coleman really sholdnt be back here next year. Almost every big play down the field this year involved Coleman whiffing a tackle or getting burned down the field

Astute DBs make a huge difference. 

[tiger7_88]

Looks like the NFL has put out word that low-hits against the Minny QB by the Saints is legal again.

[gmonjimbo]

Saints are struggling because Vikings have quality skill positions players to keep them honest instead of ignoring players like Sheppard or Bersin then taking advantage of Kurt Coleman and Captain.

But he was better than both our CBs

What an interception by Sendejo! This is exactly why we need to upgrade our Safteys. #1 need outside of DE/WR

Kurt is fine for now. We need Ronnie Harrison and if possible draft Watts as well for our next SS and FS dou.

[Mother Grabber]

lol...breesus with a blutarski passer rating so far.

[The Lobo]

Great catch, I wonder what that’s like?
