And I do remember the offense turning the ball over against the Whiners, but I also remember the Whiners going very conservative on offense after they went up 17-0. And when the chips were down, when the only thing the defense needed was 1 stop out of 4 defensive stands in the 4th quarter, they couldn't do it, including an 80-yard TD drive by Alex Smith with 1:32 on the clock.

The point I am trying to make is very simple:
Offense has been awesome.
Defense has been horrible.
Get whatever is needed ( or whatever Spagnuolo thinks is needed) to fix the reason why the Saints don't have at least 3 rings today.

As for this Massie fellow, well, he doesn't exactly come with Muņoz or Roaf or Pace credentials either, does he? He may have been rated the 7th or 8th "best" tackle in the draft, but what does that tell you, really? What makes you so sure to say an inconsistent tackle leaving college early is going to solidify anything?
