Saints head to training camp optimistic about Dennis Allen's defense

Barring excessive injuries to key players, I think this defense should be in the low 20's minimum, and mid teens if all goes well.

low 20s in exactly what category? It's important. Yards, which seems to be a common figure really isn't so important. Four crucial categories:

1. Points.
2. Red Zone TD percentage
3. 3rd down percentage
4. Turnovers.

We cannot be in the low 20s in these categories. It needs to be in the mid teens to be effective.
