Remember the training camp from '09 when defense ***** slapped the offense? This has a similar feel to it.

I don't remember that at all. I remember a lot of uncertainty with Greg Williams coming in. Sharper was a question mark and the O pretty much tore them up all camp. Players were learning a new scheme .

That should put you at ease; because players are learning a new scheme again this year(to a lesser extent) and they're already ahead of the curve!

Also a new scheme means no game tape from last year. I think that helped some in GW and RR first year.

GW defense was ranked lowest or highest (meaning worst) his first season.

That year the defense was physically aggressive and they adopted the Gregg Williams philosophy of intimidation and took it to hard to the offense. The defense manhandled the offense during the '09 training camp so badly that they went to Payton and complained. Payton told them that they needed to man up and they did! They came back fighting and from that they developed the swagger that took them to the Superbowl.

Yes, they were brawling at the start of camp that year.

I don't know about the complaining to SP but they were super aggressive and there was a real challenge between the O and D. The D was taking it to them early in camp.

I remember reports of Brees and Vilma squaring up to each other in practice, tensions were that high.
However on gameday, they were each others biggest supporter.
