Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

Pre-Game Recon: Three Questions With Canal Street Chronicles

Yes, only three (3) questions this week. Your Houston Texans tangle with the Saints when it counts on September 25th, and we weren't about to burn through all our questions for a preseason game.

This week, Dave Cariello, the big cheese at Canal Street Chronicles, stops by to put up with my inane queries. Dave should have my answers to his questions up sometime soon as well. In the meantime, hit the jump to get enlightened.

Star-divide

BRB: The Saints seem to have cornered the market on nose tackles this offseason. You have no idea how much many Texans fans envy the embarrassment of riches the Saints have at NT. Any idea how the NT rotation will work for New Orleans this year?

CSC: I would expect Sedrick Ellis and Shaun Rogers to get the start, with Rogers playing on early downs and obvious running plays. Aubrayo Franklin will rotate in liberally and probably come in on later downs and passing plays. The Saints have also seen some pretty good play from second team defensive tackles Tom Johnson and Mitch King, so look out for them during this game. The interior defensive line has definitely been an area of big improvement this off-season and there is certainly some depth now.

BRB: Reggie Bush is gone. A year or two too late, or did the Saints jettison him at the right time?

CSC: I figured since Reggie was no longer with the team that I wouldn't have to answer any more questions about the incredibly popular yet divisive running back, but alas, here I am still answering them. Given the Mario Williams/Reggie Bush 2006 draft situation, I can certainly see why Texans fans would have a bit more of an interest.

The Saints probably could have gotten rid of him last year, seeing as he missed a good bit of the season, didn't contribute much and was paid way too much. But hindsight is 20/20, right? With the amount of money he was scheduled to make, this year was certainly as good as any to part ways. Most fans were expecting the team to cut him outright and get nothing for him, so when the Saints were able to trade him for safety Jonathan Amaya and two undisclosed draft picks, it was an absolute bonus.

I think most fans wish him well on his new adventure but personally, I'm glad the Reggie Bush era is over and we can all move on with our lives.

BRB: What are the big position battles going on in New Orleans that Texans fans should be watching with particular interest come Saturday night?

CSC: Outside linebacker is definitely one of them. Scott Shanle has started at outside linebacker for the past four years, despite numerous attempts to upgrade the position. This year, however, it looks like the Saints may finally have the right guy in Jonathan Casillas. The two of them have been going back and forth with the first team in practice. Last week Casillas was impressive. If he continues along this path, Scott Shanle might finally lose his starter status.

I'd also pay attention to the wide receivers. The first four spots are pretty set but there's definitely an opening for that fifth and probably final spot. Kick returner Courtney Roby is battling it out with young, unknown talent like Adrian Arrington, Joe Morgan, Montez Billings and Andy Tanner. The decision may actually come down to special teams play, so keep an eye out there.

Rumor has it that Question No. 2 was simply, "Reggie Bush sucks. There is no question," but that I went back and edited for the sake of creating a dialogue. Regardless, thanks to Dave for taking the time to do this. Check out Canal Street Chronicles to see what Saints fans are saying about tomorrow night's game.

Cowboy & Saints fans

Are NOT welcome in Houston. And I agree, Saints fans are among the worse and most rude in all of the NFL. Last time I was in New Orleans to watch the Texans I had a chicken finger and even a hamburger covered in ketchup thrown at me all because I cheered loudly when we scored a TD. I have no sympathy for their refugees who come here and take advantage of Houstons hospitality.

The Saints offensive line is absolutely atrocious

Their entire line upfront is really banged up and they are undersized already as it is. Key players are dealing with injuries and thats a real concern with Drew Brees and the rest of the Saints. I had the opportunity to watch the 49s & Saints game and the 49s made Brees look like David Carr. You thought the Jets were horrible upfront? When were done with New Orleans the pure carnage wrecked on them will look 10 times more devastating then Katrina. Theres a cajun sackdinner wating to be had tommorow lads and the Texans are ready to feast.

Bush Era, What Era? He didnt Play.

Glad he left NO. It was crazy to think Bush could produce under that system and mentality of the Saints Org-Mickey Loomis. Bush was doomed from the start. You Draft a guy #2 and pay him like a 8th round pick from Rutgers. Sean Payton’s system is a running back by committee, so there was no way bush would excel, or justify his number #2 status or be that feature back. Look at the situation now over there, they have Ingram, Thomas, Ivory and have two more backs, you need to understand not one runningback will excell in that system, period, and to expect Bush to hit a home run when he averaged 4.2 rushing attempts his ENTIRE CAREER, is assinine, stupid and expected of people who dont understand football, but understand gossip columns and ignorant statements.

Saints O-Line

Bo$$ was right, their protection is pretty awful. However, the style of offense is so different then the Jets. With NO having more ability to stretch a D, then the Jets have. Two games that have such different styles. Will be a fun game with the new look D, a good challenge. I want to see the secondary stop a friggin slant route. Seems like they don’t practice that one in practice.

as far as your post on CSC go, i agree for the most part. they really think 1 ring makes them far superior to us? The Aints are the aints, they can hold on to there ring seeing as they probably wont make it pass third in their division the next couple of years.

and you were right on your schaub brees comparisons. Schaub is a much better QB. also they were 1 a 1 and done wild card team when they play the panthers twice and had a easy schedule.

What he was wrong in doing is going over there in the first place. he did start talking shit first. As far as the texans being in the same class as the saints…. i beleive we have a better owner. yall have a better head coach. defensive cordinators are a push i think.. we both have tons of talent on either side of the ball. yall do have a superbowl. in our defense tho, yall also had a 30 or 40 year head start. Aaaaaaand we have a better fan base. i would say were about even, but if i had to purchase one team or the other it would definitly be the Texans.

Considering the Texans haven't ever MADE the playoffs.....

….how can you NOT see the Saints are superior? If you take our whole body of work over 45 years, its pretty said, but right now, AT THIS TIME, the Saints are one of the elite teams in the NFL. Saints have the best record in the NFC the last 5 years, with two NFC Championship Game appearances and a Super Bowl title.

What happened 10,20,30,40 years ago is irrelevant, the same as you tell Cowboys and Niners fans who haven’t won a title in 20 years.

And any truly knowledgeable football fan knows that the Saints were playing with a seventh string RB and half their defense injured in that playoff game, along with Brees battling an injured knee the entire season, yet we still went 11-5. And that was NOT an easy schedule. Yes, we had Carolina twice, but you had Jacksonville. If you look at current power rankings, the NFC South has THREE teams in the top 10-12 in the league, depending on whose rankings you like.

So, its not one ring that makes us superior, its 3 10+ win seasons, two division titles, two NFCCGs and a Super Bowl title compared to the Texans 0-0-0-0.

Just wanted to clear up any confusion about my Reggie Bush answer. Definitely wasn’t trying to be snarky at all. I see how it could come off that way. It’s just that for the last five years Saints fans have gone back and forth about Reggie. He was an incredibly divisive figure. I was relieved when the Saints finally traded him only for the simple fact that soon enough I will never have to listen to the Bush debates again. I just found it ironic that with Bush gone, he’s still a topic of discussion.

I mean, Dallas is vile in ways that defy rationality (and I say that having lived there 8 years) so that I get. But right now Dallas is on a pretty good sports run, so it’s kinda hard to run much smack at them.

 I’d really like to see Houston’s sports records do the talking for us about now. No hope of that with the Astros, but I have a good feeling about the Texans this year, and the Rockets, too, if we get a season and an actual center.

I’ll take that as a sort of back handed compliment. The truth is, its a small percentage of the people that give it a bad reputation. I’m a native, but I have a degree from Tulane, I run my own business, I pay my bills, and I have all my teeth.

Most of us are just middle class people trying to make a living. I’ve always liked Houston. Grew up as an Astros fan, since we have no MLB team in New Orleans. Think about that for a minute. I’ve lived my life supporting Tulane, the Saints and the Astros. I’ve watched my favorite teams lose more games than a person should have to endure, so I understand.

Eagles? I think you mean Ravens, LOL.

Though if any team could find a way to lose by ten points in overtime it would be the Texans.

Regarding Jacoby, I still have my doubts. The one day I went to training camp, and it was only one day, he never made a clean catch, meaning the ball always bounced around a little in his hands before he pulled it in. AJ, Walter, Daniels, and the others would handle the ball with a vise-like grip. Then in the Jets game he dropped a ball that he couldn’t handle cleanly. He did get hit by a defender but it was barely a bump.

I know it’s early, but at this point I’d feel better about Lestar Jean having to catch a third down pass than JJ.
