Think most people on this site would agree as I've said that Payton is Bill Walsh reincarnate...

Let me ask you'this, where was this criticism in 2013 when The Saints Finished with the #4 ranked defense in all of football? Rob Ryan didn't get dumb overnight but he did lose some of his best players. Remember in 2013 we ran a 3 Safety Group with Vaccaro, Harper and Jenkins. We got rid of both Harper and Jenkins for Byrd and Bush and now we're paying a steep price. Like I said when evaluating talent, don't overlook production. When had a Good Defense and took it apart. If we think Dennis Allen will get super results himself, we are surely mistaken.
