1. Alvin Kamara looks more than NFL ready

2. Tommylee Lewis is going to make the squad

3. Brandon Coleman made some decent snags and will contribute

4. Kikaha can rush the passer (please stay healthy)

5. Williams, Bell, and Vaccaro all played well.

6. Defense played really well against Osweiler and Kessler (I'll take what I can get)

7. David Onyemata is legit

8. Crawley had some rough moments but stepped up for a huge 4th and Goal stop. Encouraging to see him shake off the bad and keep trucking.

I'll top so others can add to the list...

I had it on in the background and really didn't watch much past the half, but did see Anthony with a sack. How did he play overall?

Inconsistent but looks like the Saints may get something out of him. He had that great sack but also got juked out of his shoes on a short TD run.

I think with him it's mental and sadly we can't fix that.

Good when on the line playing the run. Pathetic in space trying to cover...um I don't know what he was covering

Kamara was juking the shite ouf of him in practice that one day.


That's unfortunate.

The first 3 series the starters forced the starting Cleveland O to 3 and outs.

Everything after that was player tryouts.

I thought Muhammad played really well last night. Glad we have him. Talent was never the issue with him.

No penalties in first quarter.

We have found our kicker.

Good against the run in first half.

Refs were a f@cking joke Hope to God that is not a starting crew in the NFL.

Lutz is kicking the ball high now. Just drilled the 44 yarder even with the announcers trying to jinx him.

I thought there were way more positives than negatives last night. Seeing guys like Kikaha, Williams, Swann healthy and playing pretty well are steps in the right direction. TL Lewis looks like he's stepped his game up quite a bit.

He just needs a little more practice on the kickoffs. CSP was pissed.

Muhammad was disruptive all night.

PJ Williams showed flashes of being a solid Nickel guy for us

Nassib looked very poised

Lutz might be one of the better kickers in the league

Noticed 97 quite a bit in the third and fourth. I look forward to seeing him against quality Olinemen in the future preseason games.

He was the best corner on the field last night. I think he is a starter on the outside. Solid against the run too.

Kikaha and his health is a concern, but I can't deny the optimism if he stays healthy all season. The OL would look its best since 13

All of yours.

Plus:

Warford was straight mauling people.

Safety is, possibly, the deepest of the defense. Even Bush sniffed out and destroyed an end around.

Te'o stood out at MLB and was very effective.

These are exactly the type of teams/QBs that the Saints D would make look like Montana. And they didn't. I was happy about that.

Lol, the change in outlook on this board from last night to now is remarkable.

Well, you are in a thread that is asking for positives. I have plenty of negatives, if you want to start that one.

That's because Gametime and shortly thereafter is High Tard Time.

I definitely saw more postive than negative, but a couple of the negatives are huge red flags.

Let's just pray our starting Oline gets and stays healthy asap.
