I want TRich to succeed. He seems like a good guy with a lot of tools and really seems to have a lot of the qualities of a top notch runner - except maybe two. Vision and lateral speed. He really reminds me of a larger version of Addai when he had similar problems - too much bouncing around east and west and not getting what you can n and s. I can't tell if those two issues are related to just the time lag associated with indecisiveness or not. I hope they are - that means it's something that can be improved through learning.
But what do I know - I am just a broken down fat guy in a green robe.

I am a simple guy and football is a complicated game. However, cause and effect in the game can be simple. Brees killed us on every down... why... because he had time and has the experience. We will lose games defensively without an effective pass rush. MATHIS is a cataclysmic loss - I mean how many times did he pull out a strip sack when we needed it. I will go further by saying MATHIS probably won us a couple games last year through effective game altering plays. Much of a defense is predicated on pressuring the quarterback. If you can't do it you are likely , at best , a sqeaker wildcard .
Someone said we went vanilla - I really hope that's true.

Hopefully grigson finds somebody to rush the passer in the aggregate of cuts coming - not likely but one can hope

I think Herron has shown enough to be #3 and maybe more.

Another thing this reminds me of .... the "slow starts" of 2013

Most pro qbs will make the secondary look bad when they got time for tea and crumpets before throwing the ball.

I shouldn't p panic but ... well not yet. WE NEED MATHIS and better oline. Mathis is a s wrecking ball and a lynch pin. Too much penetration by both lines of the saints lines.

Let Trich run with the two's and Boom with the one's in Cincinnati. That would be a decent barometer for where each stands.
