And welcome to the point after on the saints' radio network tonight to New Orleans Saints improved -- him on his pre season with 36 point one. Victory over the San Diego Chargers job to bring it Final Four to 601870. Our toll free 86688908. -- you know my tan -- call and email the KG can and big teeth at WWL. Dot com KG -- a black and gold big numbers again -- offense defense creating turnovers the result things.
big chief what I like is getting back to what we're used to last year in the Gregg Williams. You know creating turnovers I don't -- the first unit second unit is kind of -- said if you look at last year. I think that was crucial. You know going to the regular season that were a plus for an ideal way -- away ratio and I think that momentum. It transferred into the regular season where we ended up being you know plus eleven which is third best in the NFL. You know not necessarily a great start to star of the pre season -- a turnover ratio against the Patriots but now after three gains we -- plus two. So you know get a couple of turnovers against the Titans and protect the football -- situation -- plus four. You know -- the regular season but -- what more can you say about missed on average that being Chris ivory. You know -- a big. That they would that was a great effort. And now being -- say well maybe a number of running backs -- could've done them play. Not necessarily. Mean I think -- shorts and speedy short so power. I'm changes that the will the 1221 again hands on that one a they would as a quarterback you love that play. Did you look at just that the -- was that needs is done the swing route. And you guys 76 yards to your credit is Chris Simon scored in that one that would that reception the 76 yards and a touchdown. Ninety Ludacris ivory also Russian -- football we always say anytime -- 04 yards a carry. Begin a -- all the running backs got it done Chris at ivory eleven attempts 45 yards four point one average you look at Pierre Thomas. Seven carries 41 yards five point nine basically six yard average per carry. Reggie Bush like he did last week against the Texas where he averaged seven yards a carry he only had three carries but he averaged five point three. And then you look at a couple of other running -- veterans that are. Are trying to get their feet wet and the Saints uniform Ledell Betts does -- tires but he averaged seven point five. Now look at DeShawn -- Public carried the was impressive to me about this on a windy he just comes on board and he was second inspection teams tackle. And now you know than does that present you know -- name is ours who's gonna step up. As a young guy make plays on special teams you know Pierson Prioleau has kind of been the veteran -- Troy Emmitt now he's Nolan on board a chip -- You know stepped up big three total tackles in the shot to win and I'm having too -- forced the fumble recovered at the close of the game Jonathan Vilma. Now Beers in the see how serious another report I think it's a groin injury he had seven unassisted tackles very similar credit as he is tied game and is the Patriots. When he had ten unassisted tackles Scott Shanle was right behind him when you look at an assistant assisted with six tackles for the ball game a big Dallas. Domination in the sense now realistically could be objective. I think you were playing the charges in the regular season and is the ones going against the ones. And adding very explosive we might be a little more explosive but again come down to whoever has the ball last. I think we'll win that time for game part of turnovers. If if you going to the Ted -- is basically who's to protect the football agreed turnovers. And I think that's how we got that separation basically come out on top 36 to 21 but you look at total net yards. And and I know is pre season but don't hold the charges. You know at the three iron to 23 yard that's impressed about a defense where you look at the offense. 552. Yards and elected this net yards rushing a 129. That we have to look at is four point six. You know -- You know we're always say coach Payton in the regular season you get somewhere around thirty carries -- 22 -- 930 Gooden never in the teens. Well we had 28 carries tonight net yards passing. Mean that speaks for itself Florida's 23 yards when you're around 300 you know usually you get in them and often to be protect the football and Drew Brees. I thought he was outstanding especially in the first half way finished eighteen of 27240. Yards couple touchdowns. In the mid pack two grams it would be a big play of the big help from Chris ivory and that -- ten of 18191. Yards went judged on had a one pick. And become look at the -- to me. It wasn't as bad as -- chase Daniels panic. You know an Indian head to head competition because he was hit that as he was being thrown. His very first pass coming into the game. It was off a Courtney Roby is being a -- side thinks bill. You know agreed showing so porno pre season by that battle for number two between Patrick Ramsey and chase Daniel. It's still a minimal amount to warrant going against the Texans Knicks Thursday night in Nashville. Now we gave of that one kickoff return but all of a sudden. You know we started making plays where you seem like you know only play seventeen a couple of times plus fourteen. -- take away then that long return and you know which doubling giving people in and out. I thought a big improvement as far as well you know kick -- coverage this system that come back to bite you. And you don't want to happen is the penalties. What we have last week in nine penalties. About ninety your.
Are now again eleventh in ninety yards in. You know Silva institute. -- weeks Houston and then yeah. Haven't been in night -- who -- the truth to -- and or -- but really the last two games today and -- you had everything to gain. Yet biggest heart.
The buying anything negative and they gonna have to tweak this -- this is read the ridiculous that you wanted to provide DS. That illegal snap Bob Griese in the -- to Ramsey and got a call because the officials not a position yeah. You know they trying to protect their fears that they don't want on the long behind a -- as the kids get them behind run over. Ellison is loaded double of the game. Peyton Manning -- Coleman that last night against the Packers.
man because he's that the too quick to you get great dream UK great quarterback Isiah has the index Ochoa a massive game. No no mean our attitude is that not really involved mean -- on the -- Imus that McCain. Well listen that this is got to get in place immediately slowed around the game we gotta get -- man out you know -- beat me and you got a great quarterbacks like drew reasonably mag any hitting ended upright and honest problematic in the.
They ability that that that dad's VS and they gonna have to tweak -- I mean activist and you wanna protect their officials and their health. But of the caseload on the game that winning and you get penalized -- note that that that take me all morning thing because -- not only haven't -- Drew Brees and -- the fact grams.
All right I'm going on with Kasey Kahne -- Knicks will get that a phone lines travel forward to a 601870. Toll free 86688. Ninth 0878. It's the fallen out there on the saints' radio network. All this is an email does this -- season WWL. That town finals -- from the dome. New Orleans 36. San Diego Tony one final pre season game here on the network Thursday night in Nashville music city USA and the Saints take.
On the tight spot and it'll be achieved to start on the game obviously you concede that's sending who is wanted to better teams when they go twelve plays 82 yards were losing seven. You know to zero -- and you know we get a great kick -- Reggie -- you know for forty yards and then you know we start -- Brees to Colston. And and we had a penalty then you got Brees. Than the kickoff return and then you have -- to Reggie plus five and and also in at 35 situation that fly. To me of this one -- that Reggie can still work on like a number of burning banks is just their pass protection. -- look at breezy in the game sacked any follow on that play. An Eric I think widows whatever I can think his name now number 32. He basically over Reggie whipped on him. And that caused a fumble fortunately -- was ever. You know able to recover that fumble or -- towards there being great uses it position all of a sudden you could have been down. Fourteen to zero but I think Giroux kinda that comfort factor. If you're not necessarily out on the route for sure I think I don't know Pierre Thomas to me on third down. He ages rings more consistency as -- all around back. When he's not out in the Rodney -- the politics. As good as -- been pulling his pre season. And it's healthy is is like about a number of Ernie Banks. And after work and their pass protection is that could be crucial especially when you starting out. The game in and you have a turnover. And and it's it's basically just an Einstein an assignment bonus is just you know knowing who to block winning get that done and block and -- in round opponent.
Final Four to 601878. Toll free 86688908. Sending to the phones. We go Bobby and let's go to a cell Crawford Steve Steve good evening thank you for calling a point after.
And I think he's the -- we got lucky with the -- reportage or out. On such short -- the league out.
Well though that a minute they would -- thingy that model and that the average. Yeah yeah and it today with that it's almost like I calculated hail Mary and what I mean -- that. Drew is putting confidence. In his receivers it's a 101 matchup that -- guy is better than yours is really the guy great coverage. Yeah but that nobody -- a lot of times mismatch is not seen you know what Randy Moss when he's in the Vikings -- the Patriots. -- entry Johnson -- it -- is Larry FitzGerald. I've seen them make those plays where you guy great coverage but -- haven't had a truss fact -- receiver. And is cycle 101 hail Mary type situation where you have confidence that your receivers gonna -- get it now. -- don't have the height advantage of Marcus Colston so you can be a thing in breezes taken a little bit of -- reds there. But I today it wasn't one of those. Where you know drew his decision was like. You know what I'm just gonna to -- of their whatever happens happens though he really thought. That never it was gonna come now that ball. Yeah eight is got to keep making those plays in the and you and you keep having comments in the receiver.
Think about when to bring up our Shockey. Catch the the and it came down the ultimate impact what they're.
While though they have not talked about it the only engine that I consider right now they've been important against yeah Ville mole hill wood is growing because I. I tell you wedges some like a coach in the field being the quarterback of the defense. Well how one doubted him if Vilma is not really -- and again -- to make sure it was a hundred presented a Vikings game right.
Come the -- we get a -- name and address the game till Monday evening semi speaks immediate right of the interest in the the injuries but also Bobby look and after the first three games at that at some averages for the Saints -- four points against the Patriots 38 minutes against Houston 36 this week against San Diego it's 98 points. And an average of 32 point seven points per game total yards the Saints offense -- pizza tonight for 09 against Houston 305 against doing and this offense has totaled 12166. Yards an average of four point two per game. Passing the football the Saints have totaled 8939 passing on the -- in that point seven per game. And rushing for 27 -- about three Bobby a 142 point three rushing yards per game. Defensively. Numbers are better than me the average going to have after last year about it they have given up nine -- 43 total yards of offense. They've given up seven note to through the air at 241 rushing so average per game the Saints are allowing 311 point three. To -- 34 passing and eighty point three rushing yards per game badly if they. Averaged given up eighty point three intimately.
Like at a time. The -- and if you give it to you -- about eighty yards rushing a game and you scored 32 points a game and how to think it will undefeated. And if they went through more and nobody -- you can now in go to sustained. -- you ivy restaurant that is given a hundred in yet he had no idea exactly when you say that's like ridiculous. New York Jets Baltimore Ravens -- defensive numbers against the run.
And then tonight Bobby talking about rushing the football would look at averages. In 74 plays and I to saint -- seven point five yards per offensive play. Twenty Russians averaging four point six no expert care. And the back tonight averaged eleven carries 45 yards four point one you know -- the case Pierre Thomas 744415. Point nine yards -- game. Reggie Bush three carries sixty yards five point three yards the care in the day -- to case pitino. Seven point five.
Am well -- you know records they -- an outstanding job last year having a balanced attack. That shows where all of a sudden we had no one all over allotments. And the move for the -- and six in Russian. And now coach Payton never have a problem I guarantee if we can run the ball. Like four point six yards a pop. They -- you -- always -- thirty rushing attempts a game you know you know because that basket that dungy controlling the tempo of the game. As soon to be that that's impressive united 129 yards well yeah but you only ran the ball twenty times. Which is kind of what we targeted 22 -- 930 times yeah and four point six. No all the running -- I've got it done it all starts you know front and they would. You look at the competition and you know who's going to be -- there running back. Chris fiery -- keep getting better -- whenever opportunity had. And you know I haven't double digit carries an eleven. And no point that it Titans game on Thursday -- team I mean you know gain you know again like fifteen carries to close the pre season.
Active found ago Bobby to look gospel of Philip Philipp thank you for -- the point after on the saints' radio network.
I. Thought. Elaborate on the -- now like note about earlier.
That's ridiculous yet it's ridiculous.
The national official says player aren't. And we get -- Snapped the ball. And -- has -- visit our all the kids he thought I needed that aren't aren't there also watch their penalty.
You know what -- this this obviously sucked and it -- at you know these to be too -- eat we need to be tweaked but you'll they don't tweaks them before the season. At Tennessee and you get it is. You get into some gained issue where the team to Berea two minute offense is -- these officials -- I mean I don't know what that meant -- cause you to have a big play yes and explained Zagreb with a -- third quarter Saints on a first team. Drew Brees passed the Marcus Colston Mateen you know San Diego challenged the pass completions and drew try to hardly get to play well like we've done in the past -- review now the reason why the wayward drivers -- saint call waiting Eagles that after the play at the penalties and he was permitted to challenge during the riots. Is nondescript about Milwaukee's and as a result the reversal. All of the ruling on the field the penalty was re. With -- it was nullified the result of the success -- I think anecdotally that -- pants and no -- but like you stated views of these is that. When that race the teams worth but if there's so far.
how many times do you see Drew Brees are coached -- in how we coached up. That it is gonna be maybe a challenge how we heard have been run that a line to get into the playoff so they don't have enough time to think about whether you -- challenges -- Bill did this hurts that -- offenses. In the NFL I'll tell you that haven't the Peyton Manning last night against the Packers when they need this named called and it just it just hurts. That's -- affective. Franchise type quarterbacks -- know what the hell they're doing and the rough route to slowing down the game.
Got a bad severely call David their leader's office upon after a 50426018782. Almost 36 San Diego 21 this is the Saints radio network. And welcome back to the point after about me that's Deke Bellavia final quarter tied the saints' 36. And the Chargers to when he wanted to Metairie for David David thank you for calling. The point and a.
And now I'm not them let them. Bartlett and now albeit something you'd you'd. -- year's success is obliged here to improve. Toward next year you'll want to -- choose -- of 4%. In profit that would Jerry and then I got -- from -- is. We right now it improves from year. That we. This year on the field to marry. Opting and.
Well you look -- you look at the charges and how efficient I mean. The charges the last six years the could have been done since prompted you to 55. They've averaged 26 points a game and and know the -- has done that. So no you're looking at a charges attacked -- number important scoring last year -- number five and passing. So no Philip Rivers of the franchise quarterbacks who would you go -- against at that guy and I mean is is not chopped liver I mean he's wanted to bats he's all pro. I mean if you look at Philip Rivers what he was able to achieve is that. He's still only quarterback the last two seasons to have over a hundred pass serene. And that's not a Peyton Manning Tom Brady Drew Brees all one has like 105104. So no knowledge the charges -- missing. Now when you look at they're going to this year they're starting left tackle mark this thing -- they haven't signed him. And their top receiver big Vincent Jackson. -- guys coming -- back to back thousand yard seasons and he led. The NFL and a league best seventeen point two yards per catch and right now it looks like Vincent Jackson might in the -- traded to the Seahawks. Think he's burned the bridge with the charges and and that. You know protect and -- blind side you know happening Neal and obviously they belong with the young hearts and running back and have a LaDainian Tomlinson. But I thought we did a pretty good job against Ryan Mathews and look at Ryan Mathews who was -- and his game against the Bears and the Cowboys he was average and five yards a run. Well if you look at what he did that he averaged 3.3 yards on film. The.
Coming back that are -- all final score New Orleans 36. San Diego Tony won -- before and after on the New Orleans Saints radio --
And welcome back maybe there was some Joan Allen's. As few as we move her from going to sign it in. Well I'm. It or is that you you did good last week -- John Padilla the -- a little.
Again that's not as. I QB -- all right is Arnaz brought his left and we in school together and that's -- green it will go and equality for go to cause wanna mention. You know one caller said that one good pass. Parties -- short touchdown that Devern I think is breezes trust in his receivers. -- that that was agreed kits. You know there -- now that every also miss one it was a great path that you lost that in the law system. When you know at every got to -- exactly that would have been about a sixty yard gain -- almost looked like but I thought probably. The best player on office as far as a tight it was Brees to Colston four plus 27 yards. And then uncles and got an unsportsmanlike conduct in the in his kind of BS now he kind of flow of the ball and and hit his opponent and you can't do it anymore and I think -- that is in his post game press -- and ankles and was frustrated. A couple of times when he thought he was being held in the weren't calling it you know depends on the officiating crew would do -- she finally -- But I thought that it means now's as good as against. And that was definitely. You know you wanna be into global form -- that 27 yard rocket from -- tackles in this -- tight coverage I thought that was the best. Overall pass play of the game considering the coverage.
Bidding carrying Mississippi Billy thank you for comment -- after on the saints' radio network.
Paper stage felt like DiMarco date in -- We were actually -- finally over -- the game and we -- got back home I'll -- need to yell away and a couple comments satellite might yeah Glen. One thing own own own defense a little like to me the first use yours does and they do it the ball. It was immediately obvious that this -- four minutes and better show at at safety position or that killer and spank them as. It's saying my enemy we need become. The safeties that we airplane right now Roman Alford and I need.
Come on now according to India later you don't believe eliminate any Davis. Olympic a couple of times and harper and he got turn around ban on one play and -- Logan who has a league is against Antonio Gates makes a lot of people look -- In league gonna -- in Darren Sharper in there and usually Antonio Gates wins that's why you gotta get a good pass rush. And our guys you don't mean you have to look at who they going against also -- as though disappointing compared to winning how he's looked in a training camp. Maybe to -- took first two trees using games as Boras passes defended. You know this vitamin harvest -- performance. But I but I think Malcolm Jenkins has come a long way and and not to be realistic if I had I guess right now speculate I don't think -- is to be -- at Spurs game they gonna come on him. On the back in in -- season and if I had to guess I think he's going to be put on that. Physically unable to -- formulas for the first six games. And and hopefully healthy and help you true with the team that morning as the Vikings doesn't Tennessee Malcolm Jenkins and harper back.
Big thank you for the Cubs coming back call Randy area and Cameron Eric grand now and the rescue follows. That's the point after new -- 36 San Diego when he won we'll continue on the wall and Saints radio network. And welcome back to the point after the saints' radio network final score tonight from the Louisiana Superdome.
The -- to cruise to a one this pre season with a 36 to 21 victory. Over the San Diego Chargers. Let's -- ten seconds fourth station identification. This is -- New Orleans Saints. Radio network BC news talk and sports leader. They'll create -- seven DW WL New Orleans 1053 WWL FM in 6110 -- New Orleans.
And it's a final score tonight. New Orleans 36 San Diego twenty and you know big chief.
This is very promising to see like -- say when you look and it special teams breakdown in tackles. You know chip bond a young guy leading the pack with three. Unassisted tackles and outstanding. On kick coverage you know he held the charges 21 return like fourteen yards another one for seventeen yards you know became just come and contribute in that way. To the team -- like when Malcolm Jenkins and what he did in the bills and Eagles game last year -- and maybe chip -- maybe turned a corner. Because realistically. You know to say he's going to be in the game at safety. No he's not in their position to begin his contribute -- he did tonight on special teams as -- kickoff coverage. Eventually pulling covered that animal long way.
To the phones to go to Carl on line five -- thank you for caught on the point after on the saints' radio network.
I thank you got particular call -- quick points. I I thought ball influence. -- Pretty much in -- denied any time meet you I'm content that some yacht club now and you did in lieu of ball. And and directing it creates -- solidify its spot as yet they're right back in the anchors valid effort in the all around. Internet and wire I mean they move and a lot of people in and out. And that really think Lawrence -- hands down pass that San Diego made that. You know just this blog are written as somebody that assignment. Where our overall our I thank the Saints will be in in pretty good shape I mean like extremely allowed heatley and now don't eat and awful lie that British accent I mean I -- I have to give kudos and offensive line 'cause I mean a -- double -- there. And and the actual patient Reggie was patient and they hit the hole so I'm not that I keep guys like Bobby say. You know -- against Antonio Gates -- he would not turning around it he's -- the best in the league in.
Yeah right -- you know a car you know they have to do is like to meet a when all's said and don't look at every game in the actually -- is that. You know. You can't give ending into defense you know -- that they'll break. But a big you do with the did last year when they were number two red zone. The it is forest is now percentage of you can get it turn over our fourth of field -- You know what -- rothmans. And then when all's said and done you know we at plus one plus two in the turnover ratio. Now hopefully we can and you know -- get 39 takeaways like we did last year mean coach ways that we left for five on the field.
