lju713 1,414 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) Missed tackles, bad angles, and lack of aggression. I like Tru, Alf,and Poole but they have a finesse mentality. The Saints WR got too many yards after the catch. I know the DL is a joke this season, but still they are being paid alot of money and I'm not seeing it, especially out of Trufant. Maybe another 1st Rd pick at CB would light a fire under this group. We need a playmaker.. period. Edited September 23, 2018 by lju713 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Knight of God 53,937 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Just get me a safety and you won’t have to worry about CB. Sign a pass rusher, LB, and trade for Earl Thomas Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jesus 26,637 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 How does 39 year old Drew Brees spin out of Poole's tackle. When he is running, you crush him Brian. No question asked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Osiruz 10,079 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 No offense but Trufant is one of the softest cbs in the league and is made of cotton. Dude got abused today playing that ******** off technique and allowing Thomas to drag him all over the place and have his way with him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boss 133 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I want to see this team play man 2 man if Rico is out move Poole to safety and we go nickle slid Alford inside and hope either Oliver or Blidi can hold up outside Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would in a heartbeat but some won’t like it but this dude would be a huge upgrade. I know Takk will be back but he needs another dog on the other end to play with him.

Cause these knew rules got em scared to hit qb’s now. I was there. The play happened right in front of me. Both Poole and Alf hesitated to hit brees instead of just wrecking him.

Da_Truth 1,927 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 This team lacks overall toughness and aggressiveness. Too many let themselves be held with no fighting off the opponent. Falcons are getting bullied on defense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
