What are you most dissappointed with?

I\'m most disappointed with the poor defensive coaching. For a unit to return almost completely intact, even adding a few \"quality\" missing pieces, to regress so egregiously is stupifying. How do 3 1st round picks and 2 2nd round picks play worse than Country Day\'s starting 4 is embarrassing.

The next most dissappointing aspect is the 3 total 1st quarter points in 7 games. This has been a persistent problem with the Saints under Haslett\'s regime, strongly hinting at a lack of preparation. Very few playoff caliber teams give over a third the game away.

Finally (such that I am fatigued by the exasperation) the lack of a clear leader on the team. There is no personality and no sense of purpose that other great teams have. Even the damn Bungles show up with heart from the opening wistle.
