CantonLegend Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 alright so ive been here for a little while now and ive been tryin to feel you guys out. ive noticed the browns have a very solid team and the record doesnt reflect the actual team. ive noticed a relatively tough schedule and a running game that features one of the more freakish athletes in the league. ive noticed a defense that can stop offenses but an offense that likes to turn the ball over and punt a lot......probably why hodges is having such an awesome season i know you guys have seen a lot on the saints lately because of the super bowl and everything and there are tons of things that im sure you guys are tired of hearing so im going to try and let you guys in on some things that dont really get said on TV or in the media positives Drew Brees-arguably the best QB in the league right now Jahri Evans and Carl Nicks-props to steinbach but these 2 guards are the best in the league Chris Ivory-backup UDFA running back that is starting out of necessity Malcolm Jenkins-OSU corner we drafted last season and moved to safety. has been playing very very well in sharpers absence Jabari Greer-was 2nd last season in amount of catches allowed per target behind only revis. he is our best corner Sedrick Ellis-2nd defensive tackle drafted in '08 behind glenn dorsey. has really improved this season and is having a pro bowl season negatives Run Defense-teams can run the ball on us and if you commit to it, you will be pleasantly surprised Pass Defense-teams havent really had to pass the ball on us but they absolutely can Defensive Line-Will Smith and Sedrick ellis are good, remi ayodele and alex brown are eh.......so far this unit has looked very poor Linebackers-we lost fujita to you guys and our starting will to injured reserve. now our starting sam is hurt and we are playing with a crew of sub par backups Defensive Backs-injuries have crippled our secondary to where we are down to our Dime corner and our 3rd string safety. not to mention darren sharper hasnt played yet this season Rushing Offense-we are a very good running team when we commit to it. aside from the tampa bay game we havent done that. we are pass happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATENEARS Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Once again, I think that we will be in this game. Our defensive pass rush is a bit unorthadox and will keep a safe QB like Brees at-bay for at least the first half, before he murders us in the second. We need to try to grab a lead and use Hillis to move the chains and keep Brees & company off the field. Let's hope we get some of our guys back healthy after the cheap-shotting Steelers added to our injury list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CantonLegend Posted October 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Canton do i need to remind you again we are ranked 7th against the run.. 16th against the run.....problem is that we played 2 teams that suck at running the ball in back 2 back weeks and it skewed our ranking carolina, atlanta, san fran, and minnesota had no problem running against us.......cleveland shouldnt have too much trouble either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob806 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 positivesDrew Brees-arguably the best QB in the league right now Agreed...Peyton Manning is indeed fantastic, & Phillip Rivers is no slouch, but the Chargers really messed up by giving up on Brees. Drew is deadly accurate, which doesn't bode well for our Browns' seive-like coverage in the secondary by Wright & Brown. For what it's worth, not that it's really important, but I always liked the Saints uniforms...second best in NFL behind the Brown & Orange of course. Good luck Sunday- but I want the Browns pulling off the upset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsylumGuido Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Just out of curiosity CantonLegend, where in the New Orleans area did you grow up? Not all Saints fans are from the New Orleans area. For example, I was born in South Dakota and moved to the northwestern corner of Louisiana as a kid back in 1967. This was the same year that the new NFL team, the Saints, also came to Louisiana. I have been a fan ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are 7th in passing defense and 7th in total defense, but 16th in rushing defense. That said, I think the Saints will have success in stopping the run this coming week by loading the box.

Most FRAKs you see are Yankee/Celtic/Laker/Cowboy/Steeler/ or once upon a time Bulls/49er fans....the most famous of which is LeBron James. They chose teams because they glommed onto winners. If, indeed you became a fan of the Saints long ago, it wasn't because they were winning. I am not sure I am quite yet ready to declare you a non-FRAK, but at least the jury is still out.

You obviously failed reading comprehension class. I defined for you what a FRAK is, and I said that you likely were not one. In essence I basically gave you a pass, and now you want to come and shit on the lawn of the guy who fed you cookies? Bad move dude, bad move. Ask the regulars on here how I shred the Steeler trolls...who are light years ahead of some Nouveau Riche Fleur de Lis fags when it comes to ignorance and hypocrisy. I hope you have horded a supply of Depends, because if I decide to really lay it on you, you're gonna need them, because you'll be pissing your pants.
