Vikings D has had all of its coaches for the entire year. The Saints were missing and important coach in Vitt.

The Saints defense has been bad for years. GW had one good season.

I agree that this year has been exceptional in terms of setbacks and I believe Spags will ultimately field a top 10 defense.

Not if fans have any input. People here were calling for him to be fired after week 2!

Well it's a good thing fans don't then, isn't it.

Probably the same crew who called for Brees to be traded.

Honestly I can only recall 1 person who asked for Drew to be traded and they're forever reflected in my signature.

Tampa is better Offense than one would think. They dropped 34 on the Gmen's D in week 2. It was a shootout that Eli and Co. won on the last drive. I fear they will become a big pain in our a$$ under Schiano. They were a pain before, but next year they will contend. Their D is very aggressive, and have a knack for disrupting plays in the backfield. There were a few plays last night that Ponder looked like he was hit by a torpedo.

Thus far this season, Spags is looking like the

dummy here.

Totally inept at times.

Without a draft pick before the third round it was difficult to field a team Spags' first year. He is coaching an untalented group.

GW? No, it was first and foremost Darren Sharper. Made the secondary look better than it was. The defensive line was Grant, Smith, Adoyle, McCray, Charleston, Ellis and Hargrove. Who's left? Yeah, Smith and Ellis. End of story.
