During the first two sets of 1-on-1 drills, Grissom owned Saints backup Bryce Harris. It wasn't even close.

Their defense got torn to shreds by Brady

Yeah Brady schooled the N.O. D, good for him. They need a kick in the shorts.

Must be a typo, right?

Must be a typo, right?

Maybe they just looked at his NFL.com player bio. He is listed as SS on the site. Might be wrong but strange if he was playing S.

I love Randy Moss

2007 with Randy was incredibly special. Thank you for the memories.

I refuse to believe Tom is Human, hes obviously a genetic experiment grown in BB's Lab.

http://www.nola.com/saints/index.ssf/2015/08/tom_brady_shreds_depleted_sain.html Probably linked before, but anyhow Saints reporter brags of how well the Saints OL handled the Patriots' pass rush, in 1-on-1s and 11-on-11s alike. Since Ken tells us that the defense should be winning such contests, that's not encouraging from our standpoint ...

That's probably mostly because our starting guards (Jahri Evans and Tim Lelito) have been taking a lot of heat for their 1-on-1 performance in camp. The beat writers seem to be having a back-and-forth amongst themselves whether Evans is washed up - so every little good thing he does is OMG JAHRI IS EPIC by the one side and every little bad thing he does is OMG JAHRI IS WASHED UP by the other. It's super obnoxious.

I will say though that Armstead is turning into one of the league's elite left tackles, Strief has been one of the better right tackles for years, and Unger is billed to be an elite center. If the guards play well, it checks out as one of the very best o-lines around, so from a Patriots perspective, I wouldn't worry too much if they get the upper hand every once in a while.

Why didn't Jimmy G. get reps today?

Because he's playing the majority of the game tomorrow night, whereas Tom is not.

It only makes sense to give Tom the snaps in practice and Jimmy the snaps in the game. Why give one all and the other nothing, or at least close to it if JG split snaps in practice?

You'd think BB would want them both to get action.

This wasn't all on the secondary, though. There was no real threat of any pass rush by the first-team defense. So Brady could stand tall in the pocket and fire at will.

That means that Saints do not have any pass rush our our rookies interior O-line with, Mason, Andrews and Jackson are not so bad.

 

[captain stone]

It's more likely the former.

Drew Brees on Malcolm Butler's bounce back in Thursday practice:

“He’s extremely talented. He plays with a lot of confidence,” Brees told reporters. “Obviously, he made that big play. He seems like a guy who plays with a lot of confidence and has a lot of ability. Definitely one of those guys that — it’s a tough matchup for us.”

This isn't the best company

Garoppolo threw 30+ passes and averaged fewer than 5.4 yards-per-pass vs GB. Only QBs to do that in 2014 regular season? Manziel & Vick.

Justis Mosqueda


I'm sure this just comes from having almost no offensive starters to catch his passes or block for him as well as the Josh Boyce effect. Hopefully we'll see an improvement tomorrow.

Jeff Howe?@jeffphowe
Randy Moss is here at practice in Patriots gear.

HOLY ****!

He has regretted being a dumbass and getting jettisoned ever since it happened. He took things for granted. It's his own fault, but I still love the dude. Imagine if maybe he's on the team in that '11 SB . . . with a healthy Gronk. There is no way we lose that game.

I loved Randy from start to finish in the NFL. I always said that if he had a better work ethic, he would have crushed every receiving record in existence. He was a freak, like his nickname, and that may have actually been a detriment to him because he never went full throttle for a whole practice, game or season. He really did take plays off, especially when he did not think the ball was coming his way and he was not a good blocker. That matters to me. Nonetheless, I love the dude.

 

[captain stone]

And if Moss had made a better effort to high-point Brady's bomb at the end of that cursed SB,
they would've been in FG range.
