Defense
When nobody was looking our defense got very very legit. Just gotta give props where props are due. Davis is a stud. Healthy Anzalone is on fire and looking like a great pick. Apple is even starting to come around.
This defense could wind up being our strength in the post season. Good job over the last 4 games. |
Re: Defense
Held another NFL team to under 10 points.
This is a championship caliber defense. Offense needs to catch up. |
Re: Defense
A bit of a throwback to the old Dome Patrol days right? A rock solid defense doing just enough to overcome schizophrenic offensive output.

Re: Defense
The last time the Saints won scoring only 12 point was 1989. The defense is a Top 10 defense. Combine that with Brees and the home field and we are on our way to another Superbowl Victory.

Re: Defense
One more player worth mentioning ....
Vonn Bell 1 sack 7 tackles 1 tackle for a loss 1 pass defended 1 forced fumble (huge play) He's balling this year. |
Re: Defense
It's not a fluke. Been going on for over a month. It's real. Probably the second best D we have eve fielded this late in the season.

This is not your Fathers Joe Vitt Defense...

Re: Defense
I’m agreeing but also tempering. Cam is hurt and did not try to run on us anywhere near like he used to, when he did... we felt it.

Re: Defense
One last kudo on D ...
Lattimore. Cam didn't even throw in his zip code or at least I didn't notice. The only points given up was a fluke "trick" play on D. |
Re: Defense
it's been a treat watching this defense progress. they're even starting to get over their issues with those first few scripted drives. its also feels like they just get better throughout the game. so many defenses in this league are the opposite. they come out hot then come back to earth as the game goes on. we're out here swarming in the 4th quarter. and vonn bell. WOW. just WOW

Re: Defense
Our defense has been stellar over the past 6 games. I think they are healthy and confident as a unit and getting more momentum. I have zero concerns with our defense right now. They are playing amazing. I worry about the time off if we secure the one seed next week and rest starters for week 17. I hope they don't lose their edge over the break.
I'm worried about our offensive line injuries and getting Ginn back. Our young WR stable is becoming underwhelming. I see alot of our offensive woes being partly from the 3 game road trip. We will get back on track in the dome and the key will be the run game. Push it like we've never pushed it before and let the play action return. Will be just what the doctor ordered. |

Re: Defense
To put a bow on the 2018 Saints defense (last 6 games) ...
1st - takeaways 1st - sacks 1st - ppg That's a big time, prime time championship caliber defense. Just wait until the offense starts to click in the dome. |
