Re: 5 Reasons Why Saints Defense Will Be Better in 2016
We'll have a better season for 3 reasons:
1.) More talent on the defensive side of the ball. Last year the only proven commodities were Keenan Lewis and Cameron Jordan. Now we have Laurenitis, Anthony, Fairley, Robertson and Breaux that we know can produce. On hustle alone this team defense will be no lower than 20th. 2.) More overall depth. If Keenan goes down(which I do not want to happen) we have PJ Williams, Kyle Wilson and Damian Swann who can step in. We have more defensive linemen who can rotate in to keep players fresh and our talent at Linebacker is Infinitely Better. 3.) We have talented young studs who are rookies and 2nd year players in Rankins, Bell, Kikaha, Tull, Williams and Swann. Plus we have Michael Thomas on offense to complete our missing piece: A big receiver to make the tough catch. Remember the 1st Carolina game we had Carolina beat but Josh Norman outjumped Brandon Cooks for the ball. This year that doesn't happen. This year Michael Thomas highpoints the ball and comes down with it. TD Saints!! Ball Game over!! |

Re: 5 Reasons Why Saints Defense Will Be Better in 2016
Seriously speaking, rotation should be HUGE. Keep those BIG GUYS in the trenches FRESH. This is what I'd like to see...
1st and 2nd downs : Rankins/St. Nick Cam Jordan John Jenkins David Oyemata/Bobby Richardson On 3rd down ... Add Kikaha / Tull & rotate JJenkins out. Keep your eye on Oyemata at camp. This guy has the potential to be very disruptive. |

Re: 5 Reasons Why Saints Defense Will Be Better in 2016
All of this would be great but it will be all for naught if our offense somehow manages to take a step back. Its going to take our offense staying in the top 5 along with a signifigent improvement on defense to be a real threat.

Re: 5 Reasons Why Saints Defense Will Be Better in 2016
Again, Allen did not really show the improvement after Ryan left enough. That could be in part due to a inefficient offense in the first half.
