Miscellaneous Notes

Trey Hendrickson made Daryl Tapp expendable, and has now appeared to jump Hau’oli Kikaha as the 3rd down rusher. Maybe there was something to those trade reports after all!?

Saints are confident in Kenny Vaccaro’s man cover ability from the slot. They appeared to like his matchup vs. Golden Tate whenever he was moved there.

Loved the FB option, but to me the creativity suggested we aren’t confident we can get a yard up the middle. Trey Edmunds is there for special teams, and not sure they are ready to give him game carries yet. Khiry Robinson being worked out makes sense, but Daniel Lasco is back in the mix.

Marcus Williams had some of his bad college film show up in the NFL. His tackling is questionable, and he doesn’t locate the ball well when it’s over his head.

The Saints used a lot of 3-man fronts with Klein serving as a blitzing OLB on one side and Bell, Vaccaro, and Bush handling blitzing on the opposite. Very Unique.

There is a Need for Snead, but we’ll have to be patient while he works his way back into the offense.

Dennis Allen tried to disguise coverage in the first two weeks and it hurt us, now he appears to be disguising the defensive fronts and keeping the roles in the secondary static. It’s working.

Michael Thomas will be fine. Darius Slay, their secondary, and scheme are very sound. They obviously made it a point not to allow him to beat them.

Terron Armstead’s impact was HUGE. His presence allows them to do things like pull Andrus Peat on toss plays knowing he can seal the down block.

Ken Crawley has outperformed P.J. Williams in coverage and as a professional. The latter is probably the most important so you can’t pull him unless he proves he can’t play.

I was wrong about Adrian Peterson - for now. He’s clearly still got gas in the tank but let’s see if he continues to do that in Week 14 when said tank has started to empty.

Saints are becoming painfully thin at LB same as last year and you started seeing STs get affected because of it. They need to stop the bleeding.

Kikaha hurt? dog house? Hendrikson did ok.
Vacarro needs someone to push him at his position.
Middle running hindered by Unger not being fully back. At least he does not appear to be.
Happy with ROOKIE Williams.
Unique? Ok. Just get the job done. (they have been)
Need Sneed? He's pretty good. Wasn't missed all that badly.
Tried. That's what I said except added that it was a Coaching error that cost the team.
Thomas is fine.
Hoping Terron can stay healthy.
Crawley the best.
Payton was AP's hindrance. Best coaches use player talents properly, they don't telegraph plays.
