We have 8 losses, and 6 were on the defense or special teams IMO.

But I will agree that our guards need some serious upgrading, and we need a replacement for an aging Strief. His play is bound to start declining eventually.

I'd say the losses to Denver, Carolina, KC, Tampa and Detroit were all on the offense.

All those games the offense had multiple turnovers and put the D in horrendous positions, which in all fairness the D did well to only allow the points they did.

Denver game - 4 offensive turnovers
KC - 2 turnovers
Tampa - 3 interceptions
Detroit - 3 interceptions
Carolina - 2 turnovers

Because Brees has no time the past two weeks. The offensive line is easy overrated because of Bees and his ability to get rid of the football quick. Peat started to look good a few games but is back to being beaten like a drum every second or third play. We need a good, consistent o line to make this team a contender again.

When Drew retires is when S.P. will leave. Until then grin and bare it through clinched teeth.
