tell me why this is a must win game

another that you just plain hate the Saints

I don’t think it’s a must win game. This Saints are so bad that anything less than a blowout would be disappointing. They have a good offense but that D is awful. Right now their ranked 24 in defense. Must-win… I’d rather call it a should-win.

The Art of the Chip Block, JA98

Cool, ESPN’s Schlereth just used JA98’s sack play on McNabb as a perfect example of Blowing up a Chip Block.

Really nice to see JA98’s technique get some love!

A Very Falcoholic Discussion: Ask Our Saints Blogger

My good friend saintsational at Canal Street Chronicles was kind enough to already put up a question thread, so you may have been sated by that.

If not, though, I’ll be sending the traditional five questions his way in the next day or two. Anything you’d like asked should go here, and we’ll get five burning questions about the Saints to him (preferably in a bag filled with dog poop).

Ask away!

“Sam is back in Atlanta. The first seven days of his rehab are very limited and he is just staying off his feet. Until we really get him going in the rehab process, we aren’t going to really know how long it will be for him. At this point, we are optimistic. The procedure went well according to the doctors and he has started his rehab.”

Domonique Foxworth To Start For The Falcons

Brent Grimes began the year as a nice story, but he has to yield his starting job to a story with just a little less luster. Today, Domonique Foxworth has finally learned enough of the defense to take over the spot formerly held by Grimey.

It’s a shame that a nagging injury had a role in costing Grimes his job, but with the Falcon pass defense struggling the writing was on the wall. Foxworth was quite highly regarded when he was drafted, but Denver soured on him and he then had to learn the scheme in Atlanta once we swapped him for a low-round draft pick. As of this week, though, he’ll get a real shot to boost one of the league’s youngest and most ineffective corps.

His tackling and his experience will give him an edge over Grimes, though I doubt we’ve seen the last of Brent. At the very least, his stunning speed and athleticism could give find him a role as a dime back and possible punt returner. This move also puts more pressure on Chris Houston to succeed; if he continues to show only minimal improvment, Chevis Jackson may be breathing down his neck before long.

I’m in favor of making gains at the position however we can, so Foxworth isn’t likely to hurt. At least we didn’t sign DeAngelo Hall.

Thoughts?
