He wasn't good last season. He's a big reason we lost that first game against the Falcons.

And he was only a small part of why that game was lost. A much bigger one was losing contain on the QB letting Ryan scramble and make plays down field. That was a very common theme all year. Also missed tackles say high. People love to focus on that one play as "why we lost" but that's bull shite. Many plays lead to losing a game.

No he wasn't. I forget the exact number, but IIRC the team that wins the turnover battle wins ~70% of the games. I know that his fumble was at an unfortunate time, and that Brees (the only reason our team is worth a shite) has had some untimely TOs, but that doesn't make them any less insignificant.

Colston caught a long pass from Brees to set us deep in Falcons territory in that game.
a few plays later, Brees threw right to McClain who was undercutting the route. McClain picked it off in the endzone.
Horrible.
that play was huge.
I still believe in Colston but I've got to say, last year I was a big Colston homer and he had a few key drops/fumbles.
no WR is perfect though. Julio Jones has had a few costly fumbles against us for example.
