Defense: More Spaglike or Latter Day Williams?

What do you think? I'm just wishing they'd have remembered to get on the bus before it left for the Dome.

Two thirds of the defense is out. What did you expect?

Started early, before game 2 of preseason. By end of the first regular season game we lost both starting corners, starting LB Kihaha, starting Tight End Manu, Jenkins out, Keenan Lewis may never recover from his injury so we cut him, Swann gone, Delvin Breaux GONE.... Byrd did come back to play.

That's a lot of starters and rotating backups GONE for the season or forever.

Not making excuses, just reality.

It's a valid point but it gives Sean Payton an excuse for a loss, like he needs one.

Week 1 - offense great, D sucks
Week 2 - D is great, offense sucks
Week 3 - Offense is okay, D and special teams sucks

For the past 3 years, I've never seen us play as a team, if one side excels, the other fails, it starts with Payton.

D & ST did indeed SUCK. However, to say the O was only ok is laughable

474 total yards
377 passing
115 rushing
32 1st downs
32:34 TOP
and 32 points

The stupid muffed punt/keystone cops play and the pick 6 are what doomed us. Without those two play's, we win.

We lost the first two games by a combined 4 points.
I have not lost hope and believe this can be turned around.

Can Bama give the Saints a hand?

Excuses excuses excuses when will you and that other guy admit this is a God awful team

That was all Spags defense; no blitzing hoping the front 4 could get pressure.

There at the end is when Allen started bringing a little pressure

When we don't suffer an inordinate amount of excessive injuries to our starters that other teams don't suffer, and still suck?

Why are posters here too dumb to understand that? My 12 year old understands that.

Are you and the other guys really that dumb?
