So that is improvement.
Vaccaro went back to his normal self with 0 MT, 3 QB hurries, and 3 stops.
Lofton had a nother solid game with 0 missed tackles and 4 stops.
Cam Jordan had 4 QB Hurries, 1 QB hit, and 2 batted passes
Corey White had 3 stops, 8 tackles, and 0 MT again. 4.3 yards per catch against him

Week 1 got lowered to 16 missed tackles. I noticed a few yesterday but none resulted in a 20+ yard gain or anything like against Atlanta.

Saints are 1-1 in moral victories.

along with their top 2 passing options not playing

I like white as a nickel corner, not sure about him starting opposite Lewis...then again with the safety situation in a better place its worth a shot for sure.

I like white as our nickel too, but I'd really like for Robinson to be off the field.
It worked for us last year with him playing the outside. We were still a top defense and we completely shut down the Eagles offense with him and Lewis despite not having KV

Yeah but they started Robinson at the CB2 for a reason man.

Zero game winning drive stops.

Doesn't make it right.
Will Smith was going to start at OLB for us...

Thanks God Patrick Robinson and Mark Ingram are in their last year with the Saints.

Mark Ingram has played great the last year. He shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Prob.

Agree, this game wasn't completely bad. I still think they have Vaccaro playing a bit too far back, but at least he wasn't 45 yards off the LOS. Cam Jordan is easily the best player we have on the DLine right now, hoping Jenkins opens more opportunities up if he returns during the season.
Also the lack of penalties is a huge win for this team. I pointed it out on another thread, but if there is any category you can point to and see an improvement, it's the overall clean play on both sides of the ball. If they had a ton of penalties like during the preseason, none of these games would have been even remotely close.
I think this week we'll see a lot of things come back full circle on the defensive side of the ball. I think Payton gave RR a lot of flexibility with making many of the decisions on Defense, but I'm willing to bet he is about to reign him in because we can't lose the 3rd game at home. He has to let these guys play to their strengths, and not to the scheme. This is similar to the problem that Spags had in New Orleans - trying to change too much in a short period of time.

Seems like Junior is nearly invisible after signing that contract. Kinda disappointed because I was hoping for the Cam and Junior show again this year.

He had a sack yesterday. And I think he may have batted a pass too.

Yeah, your right about the sack but he just seemed to be in the backfield consistently last year. Still early in the season but a pass rush would be nice to get the defense on track.
