Saints underwhelm in final audition before the postseason

Saints lack of a pass rush is an issue. This will be an off season (FA or draft) priority. Not having Alex Okafor is a big deal. Hopefully we get Trey back on Sunday.

We're getting little to no collapse of the interior opposing passer pocket...

You know the Saints are aware of the grumbling because local media hacks or writing these apologists articles like Rankins being the Chris Paul of the Defense...

Rankins was billed as the next Aaron Donald; while I didn't expect him to be as dominant as Donald, I certainly don't think two sacks in his first full season (actually a regression from his half rookie season) justifies the No. 12 pick...

And if the draft sucked balls, we should have been either moving up to get a special player (Ramsay) or, what I'd prefer, moving back and getting much needed depth for this team...
