Through nine games, the Saints defense is allowing about 6.5 yards per play, the second-worst mark in post-merger NFL history, according to Pro Football Reference. The only team to do worse through the opening nine games? The 2012 Saints.

Rob Ryan defenders please tell me again why he shouldn't be fired?

I could give you a bunch of reasons, but they'd all be lies.

Too much talent to be so horrible.

Thats embarrassing.

Yes injuries are not helping us, but I really don't think injuries are the reason we've sucked.

The Cajun Cannon could take off his apron put on a helmet and beat us.

:YAWN:

I have no hope until we make drastically-needed changes.

This season is already lost. Bummed.

Ellerbe and Kikhaha were our two best players and helped make it easier for the others to play better. Ntm Lewis is not even playing a full count yet. Those are three major pieces so it is a reason.

One of their better games during the 3 game win streak where you could really see the corner being turned was against the Giants. Eli's 6 td's were mundane to say the least
