Saints place Kendrick Clancy on IR
NEW ORLEANS (AP)—The New Orleans Saints have placed defensive tackle Kendrick Clancy(notes) on injured reserve with a knee injury and signed defensive tackle DeMario Pressley(notes) from the practice squad to the active roster.
Clancy, a 10th-year player in his third season with the Saints, played in two games and was inactive for five others because of the injury.
Pressley, a second-year lineman out of North Carolina State, was selected by the Saints in the fifth round of the 2008 draft. The 6-foot-3, 301-pounder spent his rookie season on injured reserve rehabbing a foot injury suffered early in training camp.

For those people who keep screaming about N.O.'s defense, I have to wonder why they are all upset. The last two games were essentially won by the defense the Saints now have, and while having an additional DE or nose tackle somewhere would be nice, the defense IS succeeding. If I didn't know that this story was posted today, I'd swear I'm reading comments from two years ago. With the acquisition of Darren Sharper and the effective coaching of Greg Williams, the defense has proven that it can hang with the big-dogs just like the offense can make defensive-minded teams look like lollipops. And no, I'm not saying it's always like this, but certainly they've proven that they can do the job when they need to.
Lastly, people, Harper has a broken foot. Seems like a good reason to replace him with someone, and choosing the quiet but well reviewed undrafted QB seems like a wise choice. Such a decision worked out for Dallas...well, kinda.

remember your coverage is only as good as your pressure...weak pressure= weak coverage...pure and simple...
as far as a running back is concerned...yeah we could have converted a few 3rd downs last year...but that was only 2-3 games...and even then the real reason we needed to convert was because we couldn't depend on our DEFENSE!!!
With an offense this potent (even with our backs we are still the #1 offense)...our defense should be able to win at least 3-5 games for us...if they can do that...we will have a 12 win season...I PROMISE!!!
