Simple question: Why change what is not broken? The offense suffered terrible injuries during the season and it just kept right on clicking. After 2 years we should truly understand that the offense runs through Brees, and as long as we keep him clean, the offense will be fine.

We really don't need any more offensive firepower. Let's not forget that in the receiver corps that the 1st round, BPA pick, the Saints made still hasn't hit the field.

All we need to do with receivers is let Henderson try out free agency, resign Patton, get Meachem ready to play, and secure a TE that can stay healthy. That's all.

The defense is busted, broken, and battered. It needs to be fixed wholesale. Fixing the defense is the best thing anyone can do for the current Saints offense. Putting out a defense that can get off the field consistently will allow Payton, Colston, Bush, and Brees to continue their offensive excellence for quite a few years down the road. Fixing the defense will propel this team into the realm of consistent excellence.

Nothing need be done to the offense.

Fix the defense. Period.

Nothing needs to be fixed on offense? Um, where was all this praise for the offense the first four games of the season. WE HAVE NO SPEED AT WR THAT CAN CATCH. We saw what happened with our WR's when they were jammed at the line, not one of them had the moves or recovery speed to get beyond and open and Brees payed the price for it. If Johnson is not tagged and all we need is to pony up the money I am all for it. Maybe we can trade them J. David, Bullocks, some other crappy defensive player for him. Our offense is not perfect, good but not great. Speed kills and without speed you get killed. I love Colston but he does not have great speed, he needs someone opposite him that can draw some attention, and Patten and Henderson are not gonna cut it. Maybe Meachum will, but if not and no draft choices are required I say get C JOhnson.

Brees finished up with nearly 4500 yards passing. Someone has to be getting open.

So then with 4500 yards receiving on nearly 300 catches by the receivers, exactly how often did this happen?

The defense needs to get so so much better than any improvements on the offense, I just can't see a justification for it.
