Saints camp observations, Day 9: Defense continues to make its case by intercepting Drew Brees four times

I hope the interceptions were not a sign of what we can expect from Drew this year.

Brees just being the ultimate confidence builder...at least I hope so.
Lord knows our defense needs the lift.
Lots of new faces on the D.
I'm hoping for some "solid" play.

Watch our D do awesome but our O start sucking.

Nick Underhill and Larry Holden have observed that he has been getting good penetration, disrupting pass plays & blowing up runs. Add in Fairley, Jenkins & Tyeler and this front can be good if not solid.

Hopefully this trend continues.

I would love to know which combo works best. I really like what I am hearing about Tyeler at NT/DT. NT play will be key for Rankings. Never liked seeing Tyeler lining up at DE.

Today is the day we really get to see what these young guys can do. Can't wait to see the highlights and who stood out vs Patriots @ practice on both sides of the ball.

Or, the defense is actually that good 😉
