I like some of our personell on D don't get me wrong but I think this is a GREAT POINT the Defense we deploy is CRAP. The whole theroy of bend don't break... we break. Giving up to many big plays. YEAH YEAH be happy we won but you have to be concerend when we play agains the tougher teams that will break us.

I think part of the problem we can only change so much and need to give Payton some time still to build this team... we are still building I am well aware of that and I think a lot of people have to high of expectations for a building team.

We have to get out of that Defense but we just don't have the players yet. We have no true rushers.
Good post. I disagree with the last sentence though.I think that Grant is a very good pass rusher. So is Brian Young. Young leads New Orleans with three sacks and is somehow always overlooked.
And people keep asking what's wrong with Will Smith. The guy keeps injuring qb's and that's pretty effective, gruesome or not.
Gray, starting his second game for injured David Garrard (ankle), opened well, but his performance dipped after he sprained his left ankle on a hit by Will Smith early in the second quarter. javascript:lpg("/Multimedia/Photo Galleries/2007/9/Saints vs Titans - September 24.aspx","Saints vs Titans - September 24");

Leftwich was injured when Will Smith and Brian Young sandwiched the quarterback as he released the football. New Orleans Saints - Saints Host Falcons

Will Smith came around the corner to blindside Carr for Smith’s first sack of the season. Carr needed assistance in leaving the field.New Orleans Saints - Saints and Panthers Game Story

And Apparently Renaldo Wynn is good in spot duty with two sacks yesterday.

Another guy that looked good as a rusher in preseason was Troy Evans. Especially in the Bills game.
