I hope he eat's his words! (Saints camp preview)

I think the article is pretty accurate and thats why I say "Beware of the Saint's Defense". Everyone is all about the offense and the "D" is getting little or no love from the media. But I like what I see in our defensive personnel. We have enough quality across the board that the constant rotation off fresh bodys in the d-line, lb's and secondary and constant pressure from the de's. The offense came together last year and the defense maintained. I look for the defense to step up big time this year and make a statement about being overlooked. We have no real "star" guys on defense but we have 11 guys who play as a team and will begin to wear you down. I kinda like that. The "D" will rise this season!!!!! Go Saints!!!!!!!!!! AND YEAH HE WILL EAT HIS WORDS.

yea the D was ranked pretty well...i believe pass defense was 3rd in the league suprisingly.

and notice where this guy is from, he WAS a scout for the browns, HAH...and he did some work in pittsburgh...i call wanker!

i did not think the colts defense was elite and they won the s.b.

defense was elite. ssmitty - an understatement man. The Colts got away with it last year. Will be much tougher this year if New England's offense breaks loose.

I reckon Saints D could step up big time this year. Think about it. The big plays hurt us, not consistent plays
