But I also have an ounce of realism about the entire situation. Breaux also got torched at times last year and this defense was epically bad. So you may have to overlook my "pessimism" when it comes to the saints defense being much improved through 5 days of camp.

My Agenda...is to look at what is being said by commentators, both of who are ex-professional football players and then say, but we need to wait until they play a meaningful game. I don't know what agenda that is other than to say things sound somewhat better than last year and I am optimistic. 16-0, WTF, that is an exaggeration and if you look at my post they are not sunshine and rainbows.

Much improved vs what my post said- somewhat better than the last two years. You're exaggerating the point I made to fit the narrative you need it to fit in order to come back with a comment like that.

Somewhat better is not the same as much improved...second, I openly stated but we need to wait and see what happens when a meaningful game is played. I never said much improved.

He didn't make it through the first paragraph before dropping his "skins on the wall" cliche.
Very disappointed that he didn't mention KV "knocking a snot bubble" on someone.
C'mon Cannon, you're slipping.

FWIW ...PFF's top 20 corners in 2015. He is ranked before Desmond Trufont, Josh Norman, and Chris Harris Jr.

Every training camp, everything is roses and rainbows. Lets wait until they play a meaningful game before we start crowing them. Right now the defense still scares the bejesus out of me until they prove it

Exactly what the post said- have to wait for a meaningful game, agree.

Agreed!! But I still find myself at times wanting to beat the drum a little . But on the flip side I bought what was said about the D before just to watch a bunch of grown pro. atheletes play like a pee-wee team.

yeah you can't get any worse so saying improved is a safe bet but the problem this time of year is when all the bandwagon gathers and talks we are the best D on paper we have the best O on paper what do you mean we aren't going to the SB. We should beat the Falcons 100-0.

You have to take each game - game by game.
