You can win at this level with mid-round big uglies on that offensive line. Hell, we did it in 2009.

IMO the Saints reached for O lineman with Peat & Ruiz in their respective drafts.

Jimmy also knew how to get into their heads - correct me if I'm wrong but he had a background in psychology - or maybe not, I can't remember. He built a hell of a o-line and ran a dynasty behind it.
