I'm not saying that you're not right about the Saints having their way with the Failclowns this coming season, but we have to remember that they are also implementing a new defense with Nolan, just like the Saints are with Spags.
So, their defense having been one of the weakest in pass rush during the past couple of years - along with the Saints - could get a lot better regardless of the fact that they lost Lofton, and because of that the Saints might face some problems of their own facing their new-look defense.
Again, I'm not saying that it'll ultimately affect the fact that the Saints are going to steamroll them this coming season, but it's something to be mindful of, and a nice competition of it's own between the division rivals: which of them will be able to field a better defense under a new defensive coordinator?
