    Your crazy... Joe Horn, Reggie Bush, Colston, etc? With Duece back in form. The Saints defense is the weakness. The offense is solid with plenty of Weapons!

    I agree the defense has problems, but it's not like we got some stud defensive player from Philly in the deal for Hamstring. Is the dude even seeing playing time? I guess they are banking on putting that draft pick to good use.

    The pressure is on Colston to perform. They will double Horn more and more. Thank goodness we are using Reggie Bush like we are. He might end up leading the league in receptions at this pace. Hopefully Devery can step it up just a bit to help out.

    It also helps we have a steady QB like Brees. He doesn't get flustered very easily. Love the way he avoids the sack and at the same time doesn't throw the ball up for grabs.

    Simoneau is actually our starting MLB, and has played pretty well.

    I haven't paid much attention to the defensive side of the ball.

    Well that's good to hear then.

    Fujita must play OLB.

    Watching the punt return replay again, it was just stunning to see Bush's speed when he hit the corner. Wow. It really looked like the TV was on fastforward for about two seconds there.

    That's going to hurt. Good to see the front office making moves to cover this. They signed Jay Bellamy. I know he's not as good as Harper was turning into, but he's less of a downgrade than most of our backups at that position.

    They wrote a damn article about this i think 2 or 3 years ago the season Bellamy had 100+ tackles and several INT's at the SS position, and he was complaining that everyone always tried to make him a FS -- and he was finally at the right position.

    He'll do fine at the SS position. I wasn't sure which one Harper played...

    The great thing about the Saints is their ability in one on one receiving. Even if they double horn, bush, or colston...Two of the three not being doubled are still fantastic receivers...That's huge for a coach. Without one of those three, it doesn't work as well.

    It's good to be a Saints fan right now, just hope we can keep this up...
