Observations from the Saints' Win over the Patriots

I knew we were going to be a run first team. Winston is doing a pretty good job of managing the game and our defense is so much fun to watch that I think they can cary an average team to the playoffs and maybe even deeper....like all the way!

I love how this defense imposes their will on offenses. Kinda gives me a woody, been wanting a good defense for years. Now, we got an elite defense and when the offense gets on track. We are gonna roll

And we're doing it with a bunch of nobodies on the D-line. Sweet!

Truth. So is their success based on Scheme, Technique, Chemistry, or Instinct/Football IQ?

I think we’ve scouted really well at that position over the last several years.

I think we can thank Jeff Ireland for the fantastic job he does in college scouting. We’ve been hitting on multiple draft picks for a while. Before him we were very hit or miss
