Well, you've got two QBs that run the read option playing for a conference championship this weekend. What does that tell you?

Has it really come to us questioning our best ILB?

lol It shouldnt
Lofton played really good this year. I do think we need more speed at LB but I dont think Lofton is a player the Saints need to get rid of just yet.

That they both have great Defenses and amazing running games...

Lofton lacks the speed we need but the guy is a beast against the run. I like Reddick but I would mind drafting a young ILB in the first few rounds.
