The way he went up for the ball I thought the same thing.

I'm going to let someone else open the Pandora's box of complaints regarding our favorite cornerback. The last time I did that during an exhibition game barrett got mad at me.

I actually thought he looked improved, even on that play. At least he was aggressively contesting the catch instead of hanging on for dear life. Hey, we take what we can get.

He's right there with the receiver every time but his ball awareness is zero.

I wouldn't say he looked better. I'd say he looked like a cb against the saints. Moore beat Joseph on the same drive. We are 4 drives in and brees hasn't been touched yet. Nobody can cover those guys if brees is clean.

Nice return by Holliday. No more Texans turnovers please. How is our defense gonna stop Saints?

The right side of the OL is a problem. It is apparently harder to invent guys in our system then it looked. Hopefully we see improvement over time.

That was a bad call. I'll take it but it was not correct.

I'm not expecting us to dominate the saints, but we have not TOUCHED brees. Not good for a defense built on team pass rush.

I was hoping to see something out of the OLBs.
