I guess I would like to see what this offense really is made of against the better defenses assuming there is better field position without any additional offensive help this season other than replacing Fleener.
Can the saints truly win an old school snot knocker defensive battle were field position battle will determine the game?

I think this is the point. Nope, your right we will never know this and with the state of the saints defense I would think it will be a few years till we can answer that question

For now it is saddle up the doggies and let "the greatest show on turf" be our battle cry. This is the only way the saints will not only make the play offs but mange to stick around. Saints offense needs to become so dominate again that the defense improve just enough to turn a bunch of those 7s they surrounded into 3s. Forcing teams to throw to ball to cover up the weaknesses in the defense.

I would have a goal for 2017 of bend and break less. K.I.S.S. approach. Nothing flashy up front just solid all around player, It would be an off season dealing with the second level.

In an old school defensive battle is a question we a far from being able of answering.

You sort of got my point. Offense needs to dominate again but at the expense of what changes? The defense is a ways away from being what you described. But they could fix the turnover issue quickly this offseason. There were already flashes last season. Special teams is the one I think is gonna be a challenge because the return game hinges of the quality of player doing the returns as much as coaching.

Re: The question that won't be answered

You posted a few weeks ago that you were done with the Saints.

I believe "The question that wont be answered" is what are you still doing here?
