Still hard to know what to expect from the offensive line with preseason over for Saints starters
By Nick Underhill -- Advocate
There was a point during training camp when Sean Payton felt the need to inject some levity into the narrative by pointing out the defense was making some plays against the second-team offense.
The point wasn’t to downplay the broken up passes or interceptions. The point was to make sure the conversation wasn’t getting confused. The level of competition is important to note because not all accomplishments are created equally.
So, that might be the way to look the successes the first-team offensive line had during one series against the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night at the Superdome. It also might make the mistakes even more alarming.
Harping on the line might seem like old news by now. It was the story against Houston. It was the story against Pittsburgh. And, yes, it’s still the story now.
