I love Brees and the offense but with the O-Line having issues and with the real possibility of having to play an outdoor game in the playoffs, if they can get through a tough division, it's just asking too much of the offense to win every game. The Saints are 0-2 on the road in the playoffs under Payton while in my opinion losing to less talented teams.
Our defense has been up against 2 of the best offenses in the league and the Bears offense are not slouch. Many teams defenses will get shredded by the Texans and Packers this year. Lets wait until we are not playing elite offenses to panic about our D. Our D will develop over the season and when we face these teams in the playoffs we wont give up as many. Remember that the Packers and Bears have excellent Defenses and we shredded them as much as they shredded us. Hell we put up double the points on the Bears D than the Packers did.
