Saints Defense Top 10?

I think we finish inbetween the 15-20 area. As much as we score, we give our opponents ample opportunites to put up points... especially once we're up by so much, the defense usually gets a bit vanilla(prevent defense which I absolutely find stupid in every level of football).

But the Saints have shown the exact opposite true. Their defense is built for protecting leads. That's why they are building such a strong secondary and an outstanding DL first. When we are up in the 4th, we can realy come after you.

I don't think the Saints will ever play vanilla or take the pedal off.

It's not their style.
