I would certainly agree with that, the Defense seems to be getting a bit better every week, but the Run D is certainly the weakest link in a strong chain. We held LeSean McCoy to 49 yards (though that is easy when your offense runs away with the time of possession). Getting where we need to be bit by bit.

Dukes puts on a shock radio type show, he has good guests like Santana Moss and Others but he’s not an expert of sports and doesn’t know much detail. He’s basically a much lesser version of the junkies but he’s only one guy and I hate that. They need to find an ex-player who can give us good analysis next to his blowhard comments like Kendrick Golston or Will Montgomery etc Used to love Cooley, but hate that whole station; Brian and Doc are ok though.. All the personalities were just blah. And Grant and Danny were just cringe-worthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMG5 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 The Saints have have been pretty good at stopping the run aside from 1-2 big plays per game. I'm honestly just looking forward to a good game. Good luck and let's hope for no injuries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navysaintsfan Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I think I liked Dukes a lot because he was very much a realist when it came to the local teams, never afraid to say when they suck. A lot like I am with the Saints. And I have not had much positive to say the last three seasons. I'm very thankful for this year so far.

Yeah, the redskins had a good run D until Jonathan Allen was lost for the season and then two weeks later our second best interior DL Ioannidis broke his hand. I think Samaje Perine will be the bell cow to the extent we run the ball - probably 10-15 carries - Thompson will get more snaps though, like 5-10 carries and 5 receptions.

Funny though, you take away Shady's big run last week and he had 7 carries for 13 yards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czabe though is the best IMO! He, Scott Lynn and Steve Soloman the producer are hilarious. You should listen on the ESPN980 app if you get a chance, 4-7 pm.

Lmao! If I had a dollar for every time you said that I’d be a billionaire. Didn’t you say he’d throw 3 vs San Fran? How’d that prediction turn out? 330 yds, 2 TDs & only 1 int. Wouldn’t shock me to see Cousins have a game lik3 had vs Minny & Seattle. 300 yds and a TD or 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a few fans are but they always seem larger & louder than his supporters because they complain about his every incompletion and god forbid he throw an int! Oh that’s just the end of the world!

Against minny last week, Cousins threw 45 passes, 32 targets went to RBs, TEs or Crowder. Cousins will get his stats because he’ll throw mostly to those 3, whether we run effectively enough or are good enough in the redzone to keep pace with you is what the true test is.

I barley even post about Kirk but I'll start to do that now this man is on the dashing hot seat and I doubt he's back next year unless he steps up.
