No reason not to be optimistic; it's not like they can get any worse

Re: 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.

I am sure throughout training camp we will hear the same rhetoric and hype about how the defense outplayed the offense today blah blah......
