re: Our long national nightmare is over - Goodnight, De'Vante Harris

Still pisses me off to no end that he actually started the Rams game last year and proceeded to put us in a big hole before being benched (and then relegated to the practice squad).

Member the first vikings game last year when Crawley was inactive and Harris started and Thielen had a career game?

All I can figure is that Harris must've been outstanding in practice last year, enough to convince Allen he has starting ability.

Then Harris plays like shite in the opener versus Minnesota.

Allen must've believed it was out-of-character/first-start jitters and gives him another start against the Pats.

Harris shits the bed again and gets benched.

Then, later against the Rams, due to injury, Allen still hoping Harris will finally show the world what Harris has shown in practice, gives him one more starting shot, only to shite the bed, get the hook mid-game, waived before the week is out, and surprisingly, signed to the practice squad.

I've tried to watch as many TC clips as possible this year, and outside of one INT highlight, Harris was often the one allowing the big plays in camp. Thankfully, the first preseason game cemented his fate and forced Allen to give up hope.

Lmao...off topic but how funny would it be to celebrate at a Saints or LSU game someone catches it and it becomes a viral gif? That chicks face is hilarious.

Man that dude couldn’t cover a bed ! How he was on New Orleans roster is a mystery !

I think the hate with Harris is misdirected. It should be solely on the coaching staff for benching Crawley at the beginning of last year to play Harris. It was obvious from the preseason games last year that Crawley was vastly superior. It has to go down as one of the most baffling coaching decisions in Saints history, and that's saying something. The fact he managed to find his way back on the field as a Saint (even in the 4th quarter of a preseason game) is even more confusing. Hopefully, this nonsense has finally ended. That said, I wish Harris nothing but the best.

Fantastic compilation
