I'm game for it. Whatever the recipe is for getting into the playoffs. I don't care what it takes. But I'd really like to see some improvement on the defensive side of the ball.

Worth repeating...

The Saints have the potential to have one of the better O-lines in 2016—if everything goes right. Terron Armstead was tied for the second-best pass-blocking efficiency among OTs last year, center Max Unger had his best season since 2009 in terms of pass-blocking (though his run-blocking didn’t live up to its reputation), and Andrus Peat is expected to improve after an average rookie campaign. Strief, at his best, was among the best right tackles in the league, but over the last two seasons, has declined to just an above-average tackle. If everything goes right, this can be a top-three line.

first Shanle, then Harper, and lately Strief. none of these players are near as bad as you guys make them out to be. all are or were above average and could start for most NFL teams. Sometimes deficiencies in other areas make some players look worse than they actually are.
