The best time to evaluate everything is sometime after the first quarter of the season. But with the brutal schedule with 3 road games, a home game against the Patriots, and a trip to London out the gate, it may be the end of October before we really know what the 2017 Saints squad is really going to be. It may be 2009 all over again. The defense may be similar to the 2013 edition that came out of nowhere. Or it can be the historically bad trainwrecks we've seen the last 3 years. Impossible to tell now, or in the preseason, or even by October 1st (unless of course the Saints are 5-0 and the defense is leading the league in points allowed). My advice is to stop worrying about it. With 87 linebackers and another 52 defensive backs, it's going to be difficult to evaluate the defense at all until the cutdown to 53. Remember that last year there were very few starting defensive players at the end of the season that were starting at the beginning of the season. You'd be wise to just accept that you don't know what's going to happen and that you have no control over the outcome. It's good for the blood pressure. SFIAH |
