Lack of respect for the Saints out there in some venues

We all know that things can change in the NFL from one year to the other, and players/coaches come and go... BUT, again, you have to prove it on the field of play when it counts. And it's been a long time since the Saints fielded a decent defense. And until they don't field a decent defense when it counts, no one is going to acknowledge them for it.

And again, this is freaking fantasy. You are getting all worked up over what freaking fantasy "analysts" say.

My meaning was only two defensive players remain from before two years ago. 2014. The first year of the 7-9 run. Since then the defensive roster has undergone a 92.3% turnover and the defensive coaching staff has a full 100% turnover. The current defensive makeup in no way resembles what has been on the field over the past three years.

Last year is obvious. The top SIX corners lost for the season. A starting safety lost for the final four games. The first round defensive pick lost for the first half of the season to a broken leg. The 2nd round pass rushing pick from the previous year lost for the season to a torn ACL. The starting LB's were all slow. The DL and LB coaching staffs were idiots.

And I am not getting worked up over what fantasy "analysts" are saying. I said that the few shows I have followed leading up to the drafts reflected the same shortsightedness I have been seeing across the main portion of mainstream media.

Several of us around here have been noting the copious number of marked improvement being made in the player personnel and especially in the coaching staff of the Saints defensive unit over the off-season. Those improvements were obvious in the preseason play of the squad.

What part of this do you not see?
