Looking ahead to the Saints

[KWilly_2003]

Also they need to give the ball to #47 more than one time per game. The man is a beast, and a TD machine while in the redzone.

I'm worried about the Saints' front 7. Sed Ellis is going to have an immediate impact on the line for them and I'm wondering how our protection will hold up.

On D, we'll definitely have our hands full. As everyone has stated, if we don't pressure up front, Brees will have a field day. They've got speed on the outside of Colston (Henderson) and we've always been susceptible to Shockey. Contain Bush!!!

I don't think Bush will be the problem. The real problem comes from our end, in the form of Shawn Springs. He needs to suck it up and play some football, because CR isn't back to full playing speed yet.

Our players are catching a lot of crap right now from the same fans who were so proud of them for making the playoffs during the same year we tragically lost Sean Taylor. These are the same players, but learning a completely different offense. The problem last week was EXECUTION. ANY play that is not executed properly WILL NOT WORK. I believe Sherman Smith and Jim Zorn will have a good game plan for the Saints. I believe the players would rather win than lose and will play hard. If we execute the plays we will win. Execution comes with repetition. REAL GAME repetition. We can beat the saints and if we execute we will. Kelly can make a big difference to this offense and eventually he will. It will take the offense a while to get things down pat, but once they do.. WATCH THE F**K OUT. I fully expect us to play better than last week ( Jason will be in the shot gun more often ) and to continually progress as we become more and more comfortable in this new offense.

And about the fans...SmootSmack I don't know if you have season tickets to the skins, but I do. They have been in my family for over 50 years, and the trash I see up there makes me sick. They boo Gibbs, they boo JC, and they boo Zorn. The last thing anyone would need when they are down is a good booing! I know there are "real" skins fans out there that know and understand football. Washington has one of the smartest fans in the world, and we have one hell of a HOF coach to thank for some of that. I learned a lot from coach Gibbs, and the number one thing I learned was to ride out the storm. Don't jump the gun, and good things will happen. So yea maybe I do get a little aggresive, I just love my team more than anything else and hate when people that know little bash them. We as skins fans are better than that, and I hope that they cheer their faces off sunday just like me.

Just tone it down a notch, that's all we ask

From what Zorn said, at least 2 of our false start penalties came on plays that were called specifically for Cooley. We definitely need him to have a nice game. The Saints have a good front 4, but aren't particularly strong at LB or in the secondary. I know, I know, they have Vilma, but he's coming off a knee injury, and Jason David and Mike McKenzie don't really scare me at corner.

I just heard Sherman Smith say they will put Campbell in the shotgun more often as he has requested and if he does'nt play well we'll see what his excuse is then. Damn. That should take care of that.

His numbers have historically been better when in the gun so it's a good move. At the least it should help him get comfortable.

Saints' D through the eyes of Gruden

Wow... lines are already doubling up on Sed... that's respect for a rookie.

That's really the key word. IMO he is SO worried about making mistakes that he's waaay to hesitant. He needs to go out there and throw the dang ball a little. I'd rather see 275 yds, 2TDs, and 1 pick than 160 yds, 1td, no picks. If he can see the field a split second more quickly out of the shotgun, then use that formation a little more. He needs to whip it around a bit to build a little confidence and comfort.

McNabb threw either behind his receivers or at their feet for years before he got it right. But he still threw.

Did you just "son" the administrator of this website? 4 letter words thrown into the middle of an otherwise intelligent post is ok. You sound like a moron. The inmates don't run the asylum here. Son.

LOL, it was a good run while it lasted.. Popping off to the admin, not a good career move..

Wow, I got on to give a litle insight to the saints, (as I'm a season ticket holder), but this g willy thing is pretty funny!

[Redskin Jim]

The saints are Very dangerous this year, I just want to let ya'll know they are for real. There are still some holes in their secoundary and I hope Zorny can draw up a good game plan. I am also concerned about situational playcalls and hope that Zorn learned a lesson last week, not that it's all on him, the o line and Campbell as well.
