Drew Brees passer rating when targeting Jackson and Bradberry last night? A 42.4 (Jackson) and a 2.8 when targeting Bradberry. Not a typo, a 2.8 passer rating.

Who are the Saints receivers again?

Bradberry has shut down Mike Evans twice, Julio Jones and now Mike Thomas... The guy is a stud. Donte has had his rookie moments but has overall been great and has insanely high potential. Safeties and nickel are the issue in the secondary, not Donte or Bradberry.

I'd even say with regards to safety that either Adams or Reid alone are solid at SS and getting a rangy FS who can cover would be a major boost to the secondary, a la Mitchell (fast but crap in coverage so not the best example) and Mikell in 2013.

Yep. If we can get a ball hawk and a decent slot guy, I think we're good.

I don't think we have either of those on the roster. Gaulden isn't really much of anything, I really think he was a wasted pick with tons of other natural Safeties available (like the younger Reid brother) and unfortunately Corn hasn't looked that great either.

So hopefully we make those moves next year and things look up.

So why didn't we do this several weeks ago?

We let JuJu Smith Schuster take one to the end zone on their first play in primetime, and then from there proceeded to basically fall flat on our faces and let the Steelers score at will.

How can you be that Jekyll/Hyde from execution issues alone?

We threw away a season because Ron couldn't get past his stubborn loyalty to his buddies on the coaching staff.

Every time Bradberry is given a specific assignment to shadow the opposing team's #1, he's lights out.

Every time Bradberry is just kept on "his side" and asked to play 10 yards away from the opposing WR in majority zone coverage, he sux.

Its almost as if these are the kinds of tendencies coaches are paid to notice.

    • Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.
    • Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy
    • Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
