I'm mad I actually got my hopes up thinking I may have been wrong about him.

He is who I thought he was.

I don't see why getting stopped by a DT when our starting G's are out and our C is new is so bad.

Based on every preseason game I've seen him in, as well as the few scraps they gave him in the regular season.

He's like Adrian Arrington. Nice against backups but will never have success against starters.

.@Saints look like they're doing some 2 minute drill work. McCown almost picked off on 1st 2 plays. Still w/ 1s, though. @WWLTV @wwltvsports

SJB drops an easy INT off McCown in team. Much to the dismay of Rob Ryan.
Jesus, these dropped INT's are not what I want to see.

Ramon Antonio Vargas ?@RVargasAdvocate 19s
In drill simulating 1-10 from the 20 with :38 left, McCown threw 3 passes that hit defenders hands, then ate a sack-fumble from P. Haralson.
Looks like McCown is doing everything he can to give Griffin the starting job.

how many of his preseason games have you seen?

He'll pass Arrington's career catch total by game 3 or 4

Wrote down on last drill: Jordan got to McCown for a would be sack. Haralson got in McCowns face and knocked the ball away.

Not sure Haralson was supposed to have that much contact. Immediately ran off.

Since he got here in 2012. He's never shown any type of explosiveness. Yeah he can catch but so can all of our other HBs,FBs, TEs, and WRs.

And his kick returns are just as bad as Sproles. He may break one or two long ones a whole season but routinely goes down on the first hit, usually before the 20.

Welp, to close practice, Ryan Griffin threw a Hail Mary from about midfield to Ben Watson, who hauled it in for a TD. Cheers all around.
Otherwise, the defense dominated today.

Impressive. Unless Griffin shits the bed he'll be the number 2.

Also, we should see more two TE sets. Both Watson and Hill are legit receivers and can also block.

PRob left halfway through practice and did not return.

No one knows why.

With Bailey also ailing that is very concerning. All the more important KV can cover the slot but damn we need an outside guy. At this point he may be our second best healthy corner.

Probably just a very important phone call.

I noticed no one tweeted about it, but the saints snapchat showed Brees in a helmet throwing balls on the sidelines

Actually, they tweeted the shite out of Brees throwing to Stills and others on the sideline.

I didn't find that worth mentioning here.

Ah. I would think it means he's pretty close to practicing again. Possibly play a series in the next game

He's been doing that for like a week though.

He's probably been ready to play for some time now, but they're being super careful.
