Saints hope defense holds up.
Saints hope rebuilt defense can hold up With at least seven new starters on ‘D’, New Orleans must try to jell unit quickly SAINTS TRAINING CAMP PREVIEW The Saints had no trouble scoring points last year, piling up an NFC best 432. Problem was, opponents left their defense buried under nearly as high a pile. The Rest........... http://www.msnbc.com/news/936944.asp?cp1=1 |

Saints hope defense holds up.
quote: Now all he has to do is make plays on a defense that had only 39 sacks last season and seems to have only a minimal presence with its edge rusher
---------------------------------------------------------------------- Wait a second here. Didn\'t Howard post eight sacks and Grant (a rookie) seven? Mininmal presence? Sure, the linebackers didn\'t get to the QB like we\'d wanted, but this guy\'s analysis seems a bit skewed to me. Oh well, we seem to perform better when we have these sort of predictions working against us. |

Saints hope defense holds up.
We are no doubt in a dividion with teams that at this time are also quite capable. Only the AFC West had a better combined record last year. How can aqnyone look at us as a 4th place team regardless of division strenghts? The defense may have seven or eight new starters, but, could very well play a lot better. The offense and special teams should be just as good if not better. Even as bad as the defense played last year and the well chronicled December slide, the Saints had the lead in 6 of the 7 losses going into the 4yh quarter. This means we had a chance to win these games. When we win the division this year there will be plenty of doubters turned ringleaders who may just be reminded of their skewed thoughts and predictions. You know, opinions are like rectums. Some just need to be rectified!
