Distance Education
Course Overview:
This course is a study of the principles and methodologies of continuous quality improvement. A comparison with traditional quality assurance will be included as well as implementation standards to satisfy JCAHO.
Course Objectives:
Being a professional means making an investment in your profession. With today's patient being much more informed about health care, and much more discerning about treatment appropriateness and quality, it is vital that you rise to meet the challenges of the patient and health care delivery. As a working technologist, you will be asked to do more with less--more examinations, more patients, in much less time--without compromising quality. As a department director, you will be expected to provide the highest quality care in your department, with fewer people and a great deal less financial support.
The changes that have to be made to allow this to happen will be difficult and many times painful. This course is an overview of the concept of continuous quality improvement and how changes can be made without increasing the difficulty and pain.
Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to:
Six (6) Unit Exams 40%
Discussion Board Posts & Responses 15%
Final Exam (closed book) 45%
Grade Scale
Below 60 F
Unit Exams
Unit exams are administered through Blackboard.
Proctor Form:
You will need to identify a proctor in order to take the final exam. The current proctor form is a writable pdf form. You may fill it out online and email it to your proctor to complete who can then email it to me. If you wish, you can download the form from this course and complete the necessary information. Your proctor must also fill in their section and sign it. Proctor forms will NOT be accepted if it is not signed and dated by the proctor. Give the proctor the information section at the end of the form and fax the completed sections to me. The fax number is: 940-397-4845. It is your responsibility that the form gets to me on time. Any proctor form that does not meet the deadline will have 5 points deducted PLUS 1 point for every day (including weekends) thereafter. The points will be deducted from the FINAL COURSE AVERAGE.
The Final Exam:
The final exam will consist of a closed book format and you will have two hours to complete it. The final is a paper and pen format and is not given over WebCT. You will need to bring paper to write on. The exam will consist of eight separate areas requiring you to identify a problem from a given scenario and work though that problem using the skills you have obtained throughout the semester.
Mailing Instructions for Final:
Your proctor must send the final back to me. It is your responsibility to provide a mailing envelope with the appropriate amount of postage. If you choose to have the proctor send the final through regular mail (not preferred – priority or express mail is preferred) allow yourself enough time for this to get to me. It may take a week or more. Schedule your final accordingly. You may want to send this priority mail or overnight to ensure it will get to me on time to grade. Check with your post office for appropriate packaging and costs. If the exam is not sent by priority mail or overnight delivery, please ask the proctor to fax the exam to the instructor to ensure the exam will be reviewed in plenty of time prior to submission of the final grades. The testing site might charge a fee to fax your test to instructor. Faxing the exam is the best way to ensure that the final is received before the end of the semester. I prefer to receive both the mailed and faxed exams.
The six (6) Unit Quizzes will be open and available. Any quiz(zes) not completed by the due dates will receive a grade of zero (0). Note that all times are Central Time Zone.
It is your responsibility that the proctor form gets to me on time. Any proctor form that does not meet the deadline will have 5 points deducted PLUS 1 point for every day (including weekends) thereafter. The points will be deducted from the FINAL COURSE AVERAGE.
Final Exams may be scheduled with the course instructor and taken after all other course requirements have been completed, including participation in the discussion boards.

Some names that have been tossed around as possibilities from the wing of the party viewed as tough on illegal immigration: former Rep. J.D. Hayworth (R), Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu -- Babeu appeared in McCain's "Complete The Danged Fence" TV ad in 2010 -- who has not ruled out a bid. Mark Sanders, a Republican operative who worked on Hayworth's 2010 campaign said he spoke with Hayworth shortly after Kyl's announcement on Thursday, and the former congressman is weighing a bid. "Immediately after Kyl announced that was he was not going to run, Hayworth started getting phone calls from grassroots organizers, especially the Tea Party organizations," said Sanders. The 2010 GOP gubernatorial primary is an example of how the immigration issue can influence a race. Gov. Jan Brewer (R), who once struggled in the polls, enjoyed a significant bounce after signing SB 1070, the state's tough-on-immigration measure. Brewer seized the momentum from the primary and used it to catapult herself toward a comfortable victory in the general election. Brewer's name has also been mentioned as a possibility for the Senate race. Immigration also played a big role in the 2010 Senate race. McCain repositioned himself on immigration in his effort to defeat Hayworth. Brewer's success came after signing a bill and McCain spent millions blanketing the airwaves with ads boasting of a tough stance on illegal immigration. But for other candidates hoping to be the "immigration candidate," a statewide race presents challenges. "The hard line immigration crowd just doesn't have as much support statewide as they do within specific districts of the state," said Northern Arizona University professor Fred Solop Flake may not even be the only member of Congress that runs. A high level Arizona Republican source said that Rep. Trent Franks is exploring a bid. Former Rep. John Shadegg's name has been in the mix though some believe he will opt not to run because he is making more money in the private sector outside of Congress. GOP Reps. David Schweikert and Ben Quayle have also been floated as possibilities in recent reporting. Immigration and border security aren't going to disappear as dominant issues in Arizona politics anytime soon. On Thursday, Brewer filed a lawsuit against the federal government, charging a failure to secure the border, the latest sign the issue will continue to be front and center. But if the economy and spending emerge as the dominant issue in the 2012 primary, Flake's reputation and record would likely give him a leg up on the GOP competition.

"As human beings we all want to be happy and free from misery… we have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace.

As their children progress through school, most Harrison County parents will meet their kids' teachers, the schools' principals, and maybe the superintendent at some point. But what some parents might not realize is that there is another team of individuals whose goal is to help children succeed.
Pat Grenier, who has served as the Cynthiana-Harrison County Chamber of Commerce executive director for the last eight years, has announced her plans to step down.
Grenier recently opened a retail shop in downtown Cynthiana, Heartfelt Fiber and Fleece, which is also a mill for processing raw wool.
Cynthiana Police Sgt. Nathan Linville and Harrison County Sheriff's Deputy Robert Peak were awarded by the Governor's Occupant Protection Enforcement Awards on Tuesday. They received the awards for being the officers with their agencies who issued the most citations for safety belt, child restraint and booster saeat violations from June 11, 2014, to June 11, 2015. Peak issued 122 and Linville issued 60 citations during that time frame.

The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) has released its Football Rules Book and Case Book for 2015.
Page two of the rule book is all the further one has to look to find the changes in rules for this year.
The points of emphasis are on page three so it doesn't take much looking to find what the NFHS deems to be really important this season.
There aren't any actual rule changes but only comments and clarifications on current rules.

The Harrison County Middle School team went to the NASP World Tournament in Nashville last weekend and returned with a total score of 3,143, which placed them 60 of 90 teams.
The HCMS team consisted of elementary students as well as middle school students since, according to rules, the school had to compete as one not two. This meant that the elementary youngsters competed against middle school archers for the team score as well as fellow elementary students for individual honors.

Bought a NIB FNP 9mm I've got over 400 rounds through it and I still cannot maintain my grip. Does anyone know who sells over sized grips for this little rascal? It gets to be a little irritating re-gripping after every shot. Kind of eliminates the double tap.
You didn't realize this before purchasing?
Uh ..... NO

Disregard the recent grumbling over recent eBay Store fee hikes. A well-run eBay Store is worth every penny, and can add considerably to your profitability! Recent enhancements to eBay's Store features make running a Store an essential part of successful eBay selling. Stores give you so many new ways to cross-promote your eBay items that running a Store gives you an almost unfair advantage over sellers without one.
When shoppers enter your eBay Store they visit your own private eBay. They see only your items, organized in a way that suites what you sell; and when they use your Store's search feature only your items appear.
Stores can actually reduce your Final Values fees by 75% in some cases. Stores let you organize, showcase, cross-promote and catalog all of your items, (including auctions) in ways that make it easier for shoppers to find and purchase your items.
eBay Stores have come a very long way in the past few years, and when augmented with tools like eBay Express, Selling Manager Pro and Blackthorne, (all discussed in this book), they are poised for astronomical growth. If you are not onboard yet, it's time to get moving. You need a Store, and this book will help you launch and run a great one or bring your existing Store up-to-date.
Launching a Successful eBay Storeoffers eBay sellers tips, techniques, best practices and resources necessary to have their items gain high visibility on and off of eBay. You'll find out how to set up a new store, choose what to sell in the store, perform store bookkeeping, manage store inventory, promote the store on and off eBay, purchase eBay keywords and more. It will also show you how to take your selling to the next level, while saving money in the process.

Making the AHL schedule a critical task
The dog days of summer are usually about rest and relaxation. Rinks are dark, ice is melted. But for the AHL's hockey operations department, the summer months are when some of the most important work of the entire year is done -- specifically the creation of the American Hockey League playing schedule.
The league schedule -- developed carefully, thoughtfully and prudently in order to consider both hockey and business needs of all of the league's member clubs -- is the backbone of the AHL. Without a strong one, there would be no structure or support to the season and the league's health would suffer.
The schedule starts as a blank canvas, a giant magnetic board hanging on a wall in downtown Springfield, Mass. It's multi-dimensional, nearly six feet long and four feet high while also accounting for time (192 days) and space (hundreds of thousands of highway and air miles). And when it's complete, it will become the road map for 30 teams' journeys to the Calder Cup.
The making of the 2014-15 AHL schedule is a process that actually began about six months ago, and will culminate when the final product is released to the public in the coming weeks. (Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter for the latest updates regarding the release of the schedule.)
The AHL's constitution calls for each member club to submit to the league, in February of the previous season, a list of "primary" and "secondary" dates on which they would be available to play at home, along with "blackout" dates when they cannot play at home because of other events in their arena.
In the spring, the AHL confirms for each team a list of guaranteed dates for the upcoming season -- dates on which the team is assured of playing a home game, albeit without a specific opponent just yet. This allows clubs to begin making preparations and drumming up interest in the coming year. Many teams have already announced their guaranteed dates, some including their home openers, for 2014-15.
Once a schedule format (who plays whom, and how often) is designed by and approved by the Board of Governors, the schedule can truly begin to take shape.
The schedule board hangs on one full wall in the office of Michael Murray, the AHL's vice president of hockey operations. He and Melissa Caruso, the league's director of hockey administration, are charged with transforming the board from its blank starting point to a collage of markers representing the 2014-15 slate.
Creating the schedule is a tedious process, not unlike putting together a 5,760-piece jigsaw puzzle without a picture on the box to work from. Computerized scheduling programs have been considered, but the manual process continues to produce the best results.
The league's teams are identified on the big board by magnets of different shapes and colors: green triangle, yellow square, black star, red circle. Each team also gets a cup filled with 38 magnets, one representing each of its home opponents as prescribed by the schedule format.
The teams are lined up on the board from top to bottom by division, with dates stretching from left to right. What results is essentially a 192-by-30 framework, creating those 5,760 blank spaces in which to fill a total of 1,140 games.
From there, the hockey operations department works essentially non-stop to fill in the holes on the board.
Care must always be given to logistics and travel considerations. Obviously, a team can't be scheduled at home and on the road on the same night. The schedule modification plan introduced in 2011, in the interest of player safety and the quality of competition, means teams are not permitted to be scheduled for four games in a five-night span. Trips to St. John's, Texas/San Antonio/Oklahoma City, the Midwest or New England call for multiple games in one stretch for visiting teams coming from outside the region. The annual Christmas and All-Star breaks must be kept clear of games. And all the while, the schedule makers have to factor in travel considerations (long overnight bus trips, day-of-game flights, border crossings, etc.) and other special circumstances, like "school-day" matinees or off-site games like outdoor contests or games played in NHL arenas.
The last pieces of the puzzle cannot be put in place until the National Basketball Association finalizes its own schedule. That's because four AHL teams -- the Charlotte Checkers, the Milwaukee Admirals, the San Antonio Rampage and the Lake Erie Monsters -- share arenas with NBA teams that generally receive priority on dates in their buildings. Because those four teams are all in the AHL's Western Conference, most of the Eastern schedule can be penciled in earlier, but the NBA's schedule release signals the beginning of the end of the process.
With the #NBASchedule being released tonight, we expect the #AHLSchedule to be completed and ready for release in about 2 weeks.— AHL (@TheAHL) August 13, 2014
All AHL teams are part of the scheduling process throughout, receiving drafts and providing guidance and feedback to help ensure everyone's schedule is as ideal as possible. But while there's no pleasing everybody, procedures are in place to resolve potential issues. Once all the magnets are in position, the board is transcribed into an electronic spreadsheet -- creating one master schedule and 30 individual team schedules -- and the proofreading begins.
Each club receives a copy of their draft and may request changes with the mutual consent of all other teams involved, either swapping opponents on two or more dates or moving dates altogether. Teams also determine the start times for all of their home games, although early starts against a visiting opponent that played the previous night must get approval.
After requested changes are approved by the AHL and incorporated into the schedule, the master schedule is ready for approval by the Board of Governors. And once it's been officially OK'd, teams are notified, public relations departments coordinate their announcements, and with the click of a mouse web sites are updated, e-mails are fired off, social media posts are published and the schedule is available to the public.
Before long, training camps open, the puck drops, and the whole process starts all over again. The making of the AHL schedule is a grueling and thankless job, but it's safe to say the American Hockey League and its teams wouldn't function as well as they do without it.

(WREG-TV) The struggle over gay and straight is still hard for many people in Mississippi to talk about.
Pastor Rick Sayger of Colonial Hills Baptist Church says their faith tells them marriage is between a man and a woman only.
"Our stand is not based on our opinion, but on God in his word."
It's a belief shared by many in the Magnolia State.
A House subcommittee, however, voted to remove legislation recently passed by the state senate that critics said would have given businesses the green light to discriminate against the gay community by denying them services if a business owner felt it caused a religious conflict.
The bill was said to be even stronger and further reaching the one proposed in Arizona that's sparked outcries from supporters of equal rights from around the world.
The Arizona governor vetoed the legislation Wednesday.
Mississippi senators voted unanimously in support of the bill.
But Senator Davis Blunt said on Facebook he wasn't aware the bill allowed discrimination, and that he's opposed to discrimination and was already working to remove it the legislation
Sayger said it's a tough position to be in.
He said his church, like the founder of Chik-fil-A, doesn't support same-sex marriage
But making rules about who can and can't be served when they hold hands or are together, well, that's harder, and Sayger said his church shouldn't be anti-anyone.
"It's polarizing, it causes people to say it's anti this or anti that. I hate those words. I really believe that people who struggle just want to be loved, want to be helped, want to be reached."

SAN ANTONIO - Powerful storms moved through the area Monday evening leaving behind some damage on the Northwest side.
The high winds, heavy rains and hail caught many people by surprise and left behind a mess.
The Huebner Oaks shopping center experienced the brunt of the storm as it blew through.
"It was just crazy. Rain was everywhere, the wind was blowing, branches were falling everywhere," said Jason Luis, a shopper who was caught in the storm. "Actually a store clerk had to lock the doors because they were blowing open. So it was definitely an intense weather moment."
It was all over in less than 10 minutes leaving behind a mess of leaves, broken lights and toppled trees in the parking lot.
Several people reported seeing what looked like a funnel cloud.
"The umbrellas were flying around in a circle. It looked like a funnel cloud, we didn't see any funnel cloud, but we kind of moved away from the windows because the weather was pretty intense," said Jim Brodhead who was inside the Starbucks when the storm hit.
When Brodhead went out to his truck he found it buried under some large oak tree limbs. Brodhead said he wasn't too concerned about the damage.
"A little damage on the hood. I'd say funnel cloud one, F150 zero," Brodhead said.
The storm also left a trail of destruction at the Overlook Apartments located off of Woodstone. High winds snapped trees like twigs and peeled back some of the siding and roofing of one building.
Several residents also described seeing what looked like a funnel cloud.
"My brother woke me up and said it must be a tornado coming through and when I looked out the window it was all gray," said resident Ronald Williams.
The wind, rain and hail weren't the only things that caused problems, SAFD Battalion Chief Robert Elizondo said a home in the 10500 block of Lost Bluff was struck by a bolt of lightning.
"There were a couple of people inside. They did feel and hear something strike the house and started to smell some smoke," Elizondo said.
Fire crews responded quickly and managed to keep the fire contained to the attic of the home. Elizondo said the lightning struck the rear corner of the roof and was very powerful.
"It went through the roofing, the shingles and actually hit the wood framing and caught the wood framing on fire and it just took off from there," Elizondo said.
Damage to the home was estimated at $25,000.
Despite all the problems caused by the storm, no injuries were reported.

By Lisa DanielAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Sept. 22, 2010 Dozens of military family members took to the nation's capital today to educate lawmakers about their most pressing issues. Video
Those issues were revealed in the Blue Star Families' 2010 Military Family Lifestyle Survey, which the military family advocacy group unveiled in the Capitol Visitors Center to mark the start of the Joint Congressional and Senate Military Families Caucus Event.
"This is a great way for us to get our concerns out there, and it gets us to one central location," said Karen Francis, Blue Star Families member and an Army spouse and mother. "It's easier than putting calls into your Congress member, who may or may not serve on a committee that can help you."
Sen. Barbara Boxer of California and Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina created the Senate caucus in August as a complement to the House military families caucus that Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington and Rep. Sanford Bishop of Georgia started in November. The lawmakers, all of whom attended the survey unveiling, said the caucuses are important to educate lawmakers about the concerns of military families.
"What a loud voice you are!" said Bishop, whose district includes Fort Benning. "The strength of our military is drawn from the strength of their families."
Spouses and parents, as well as some children and other family members, made up the 3,634 people who took the online survey in May. Their top concern was for pay and benefits – chosen by 21 percent of respondents this year, compared to 18 percent last year. The next-greatest concern was the toll a parent's deployment takes on children, with 15 percent choosing the category, compared to 12 percent last year.
Survey respondents chose operational tempo as their third area of concern, with 14 percent choosing the category compared to 16 percent last year.
The biggest differences between respondents' concerns this year and last was in children's education. Twelve percent of respondents this year called it a major concern, compared to 3 percent last year.
The fifth major area of concern was spousal employment, with 9 percent choosing the category, compared to 6 percent last year.
The survey further showed that more than half of families have increased stress during deployments, with one-third saying they have "much more" stress.
"Our servicemembers are stretched and stressed," Sheila Casey, a Blue Start Mother and wife of Army Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey Jr. "Yet, we're amazingly resilient. We're not victims, and we help each other."
Douglas B. Wilson, assistant secretary of defense for public affairs, told the families about a new program called 'Me and a Friend,' which he created after speaking to children of a deployed servicemember. The program, hosted by Blue Star Families, issues free tickets to sporting and cultural events for military children and their friends.
"It's a matter of looking into our community and understanding that maybe the next-door neighbor is overseas, but maybe the neighbor's child would like to go to an event," he said.
Burr, who represents one of the largest military communities that includes Fort Bragg, quoted Martin Luther King Jr., who said, "If you're not as concerned with your neighbor's child as you are with your own, you'll wake up one day and not recognize the community you live in."
The Defense Department also has commissioned a survey, the Military Family Life Project, to examine in real time the broad impact of deployments. It will be the first time the department has undertaken such an extensive study, a DOD military community and family policy analyst said.
Article is closed to new comments.
The opinions expressed in the following comments do not necessarily reflect those of the U.S. Department of Defense.
I applaud Blue Star Families for taking on such a comprehensive survey. It appears to be well done. I hope Congress pays attention, but I am skeptical since the DoD thinks you are paid enough and would sacrifice pay raises to improve weapon systems. Most of government is now making more than their civilian counterparts...not true for the military.
Today's military families need support in ways the military resists.....I hope you can make a difference in the future,
- Sue Himel, Omaha, NE

Padlow piling up the numbers, wins as Donahue QB
Don't be fooled by the wiry frame of Bishop Donahue quarterback Jesse Padlow, who already has proven he can sling the football with the best of them.
What might throw a wrench into somebody's characterization of the 6-foot-1 1/2, 155-pounder is his astute knowledge of the game that has helped continue Donahue's success.
"We've been blessed in the last four years to have intelligent people who have manned our quarterback spot," said Donahue coach John Durdines, who is 68-58 entering his 13th season with the Bishops. He was 0-10 in his first campaign in 2002. "Jesse is great at pre- and post-snap reads. He can get audibles away from the line of scrimmage."
Bishop Donahue opens the season with a 7 p.m. game Aug. 29 at Cameron.
The Donahue quarterback is never close to the line, setting up in the pistol formation, which ideally suits the needs of Padlow.
Last season, he completed 153-of-264 passes for 2,468 yards with 24 touchdowns and only five interceptions. Perhaps, not coincidentally, three of his picks came in the postseason at Williamstown in windy conditions in a 54-12 defeat. "I couldn't complete a pass that game," he said.
He had little problem completing passes in his other 11 games, marking the first two playoff games with Padlow at QB in his second season as a starter. The Bishops won a first-round playoff game at Man (21-16), which was only the second loss of the season for the Hillbillies.
Padlow's responsibilities will likely expand in 2014 while he is tutored by former Donahue QB Michael Angalich for the third consecutive season. This time the Bishops don't want to just reach the second round, Durdines said his team has bigger things in mind for his quarterback and the overall team success.
And, in Donahue's wide-open offensive attack, that might not be a problem.
"Michael is pushing post-snap reads for Jesse and a lot of times you don't see that until the next level," Durdines said.
Padlow might be a little ahead of the curve, anyway, recalling audibling out of a play against Wheeling Central that resulted in a touchdown in a 33-32 win over Northern Panhandle parochial rival Wheeling Central. He said he "audibled about 10 times that game."
One of the issues, both coach and quarterback admit, is the lack of mass on the slightly-built star player.
While eating "a lot" of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches have helped minimally, Padlow said his size hasn't been a hindrance, even if he's reminded of it.
"People tell me about it, so it's in the back of my head," Padlow said. "I don't think it hurts me at all."
What can be an issue, Padlow admits, is the potentially blustery conditions that are presented to a passing team in the playoffs. While Durdines said his team ran the ball 57 percent of the time last season, many of those came in the second half of blowouts as Donahue won its eight games by an average score of 32.8-11.8.
That means, the closer the game, the more Donahue has to pass, the more weather — much like at Williamstown last year — plays a role. There's also the issue of playing three home games on Saturday at Monarch Field, the home of Class AAA John Marshall. That gives opponents who play on Friday night the opportunity to spend Saturday scouting something not many Class A teams do — throw the ball.
"I think it gets hard because teams get better," Padlow said. "Coaches can know our go-to plays, like on third-and-5. But, if I see them cheating where the play would be going, I'll audible a post up the middle or something. I don't know."
That's where it could get tricky for Donahue foes who think they know what's coming from the much-improved Padlow. He knows what is expected of him and said there are a couple more steps his team has to make before he considers his senior season a success. After reaching the state playoff quarterfinals in 2013, he can see what is possible.
"It feels good to make the playoffs," he said. "Everybody else in the state are sitting on their couches waiting to play basketball and we're still playing football.
"The thing that will help us is we have so much playoff experience," he said. "We were 6-4 my sophomore year. We didn't make the playoffs, but we had like six or seven sophomores on the field at the time."

Road to SB only goes through NO if the Saints win the first playoff game. Play like they have been playing the past month and it's over!
Dude, Sell me your tickets if you can't make it!I'm a Saints fan in South GA! I'll make the trip to NO!
I still stand firm when I say everyone is forgetting the fact Duece had the drug tested by the NFL and the NFL cleared it the year prior.
City needs cash..............Usama's got it.....................
Case closed. speeding, fine, all the other's, just bonus money.
I love all these folks they say that those folks shouldn't be making what they are making. They are making what they are making because we as a society are willing to pay what we are paying!
Those same folks go to work day in and day out complaining they don't make enough for what they do!
Well I guess there's no more wondering!
God Bless Duece, May your future be as blessed as the past you gave us.
I think everyone would do well to drop the animosity. What good is it going to do for AP to go off in the Press conference and say some of the things you guys are saying. Gibs is an idiot, Jason David couldn't cover my grandma, etc, etc.. What kind of locker room do you think we would have? How would you as a team feel if your coach started rippin everyone a new one out in public. If you listen to what was said you'll realize that he understands exactly what everyone else is saying but he isn't going to sacrifice his locker room just so you armchair coaches can feel better.
If you guys are so great at coaching how come I don't see you guys submitting resumes?
I know it's frustrating to be a fan, but have some faith and patience. Our day will come, and all of this will make it that much sweeter!
Peace out and God Bless, Saints Fans.
I get tired of hearing "Why doesn't Gibbs Blitz more??!!"
In all the games I watched when the Saints DID blitz it was EASILY picked up and the secondary MOST OF THE TIME got burned. The pressure was not there.
I don't know if that is scheme, personnel or coaching. You could attribute it to the fact that the defense rarely ever had a consistent group on the field more more than 1 or 2 games. I don't care who you are, when you have 16 or so players on IR you are bound to have trouble somewhere, especially with how new and unfamiliar with each other those guys where.
I know that Saints didn't make the playoffs but people PUHLEASE settle down and look at stuff constructively without gettin your panties in a wad and wining like little children.
Sadle up, play hard, win the last game, get your hurt players back next year and move forward. Yeah we can add better players, but I honestly think we could have made a good run of it had there not been so many injuries. You saw how the defense started to play before they started losing guys. Granted it wasn't lights out but the secondary looked a heck of allot better!
I have faith that this year is not a failure and definately something to build off of.
I don't understand why everyone keeps talking about needing a new RB when PT has been doing JUST FINE.??!
I know we have a bad defense but if you watch the game, NEITHER team put much pressure on the QB. I don't think the field helped matters at all.
I live in GA. All I got to say is you guys in the Dome must really crank the guys up because they sure seam to lack enthusiasm in the away games! Thanks for pumpin them up in the Dome! Maybe one day I'll get to see them play there and help out!!
Re watch the game. Notice Shocky is still in the middle of everything. He's the first one out on the field to congratulate EVERYONE. Interceptions, touchdowns, big hits, everything.
I personally think the dude is misunderstood.
Is it just me or did Brees have kind of an off game against the Bengals. He was under throwing allot of his passes?
The one play where porter almost intercepted the ball shows you he has much better technique than David.
I think it's positive that coach seems to be admitting that David isn't cutting it. I just hope if we continue to have problems on that side he will continue to to what it takes to try and get it fixed. I always keep in the back of my head, I'm not on the team. I'm not there in practice, I don't know 100% of what is going on. I don't live in NO (I'm a Georgian) so I don't get to see and hear what most of you do (Thank GOD for NFL Sunday Ticket!!) I personally have reserved exitement for this year. I think it's going to be a good year to be a Saints fan. Maybe not a SB year, but a great year nonetheless.
Go Saints!!!!!
I'm a saints fan in Georgia, If it wasn't for Sunday Ticket, I wouldn't get to see them as much. Will be nice to see them on ESPN tonight.
Definitely excited to see what they can do!
His Stats look good. http://myespn.go.com/blogs/nfcsouth/0-1-31/Shockey-by-the-numbers.html
I say give him a chance.
