Great crowd last night (satisfying to beat the Raiders, can't wait for Monday back in the office), but an awful game to watch. Last year when we were thrashed every week you could at least count on effort and run. Did we lay a single tackle all night? Agree with other posters re: our rucks. This should realistically be our number 1 recruiting priority, not Franklin.
Not sure if our zones are adequate, or if our players just weren't adhering to them, but Saints had FAR too many easy kicks to players in open space throughout the night.
Shattered about Patton, and beginning to wonder if maybe knees are going to be a recurring issue for him. I really hope not.
Thankfully we have the bye next week and should record our first win of the season.
