I said it in preseason and I'll say it again--he's already the best tackler on this team.


I said that the moment we drafted him. BEAST!

I was mad when we drafted him. After TC, preseason, and a Falcons' arse whooping, I'll gladly eat my crow.

I think that was the best 15 yard penalty I've seen from the saints in a long long time when he hit Matt Ryan... Kodak moment!...

Best part is it wasn't even 15 yards because they were around the 20 I think and would have been first or second down anyway right?

10 yards for a free shot on Ryan? I'll take that all day.

I still think that was a bullshite penalty.

The ref even said it was for a "hit on the quarterback."
Um, he's not a quaterback anymore once he runs past the LOS.

Don't run if you don't want to get hit.

Yeah Vaccaro was leaving his feet just as Ryan started sliding. Kind of hard to pull back when you are IN THE frickING AIR!

But he knew the penalty was coming so he put a lil extra into it.

He gave himself up with the slide feet first. It was a penalty.

I think I understand the rule but Vaccaro was pretty much committed (like, in the air) and avoided anything near the head. Seems chickenshit to me. But, then again, the rule these days is sort of chickenshit.

Seeing what we could have gotten on the defensive side instead of the scrub we got in Ingram is what makes him a million times more frustrating.

You mean he doesn't already have 5 sacks in one game?

Some people way over valued Jones. So glad to see the Saints didn't even have him in the same bubble as Vaccaro.

The best thing was, they didn't even get to have all 15 yards. They were in range for it to be half the distance to the goal instead.


My Vacarro jersey should be coming in from china soon.

The feet first slide has been a rule for years. It was a penalty. Worth it, but the right call.
