Drew Brees is most of the problem

We have the number 4 ranked defense in the NFL.

I'm thinking defense isn't the problem.

2009 Saints Offense - 32 points per game
2010 Saints Offense - 21 points per game

Sean Payton is not being the "genius" he was in recent seasons.

Our run game is inconsistent so teams are dropping 8 into coverage.

When defenses bring pressure, the line doesn't seem to be handling it.

No excuses -

These are the same players from last year but not the same "team"

Agreed. And how is everyone missing the biggest reason we're 4-3???

At least Brees is hitting the wide open defender.
