There's really nothing major wrong with the Saints defense that can be helped. You cannot avoid injuries. You cannot cover in the downfield defensive backfield without pressure upfront and pressure up front requires healthy starters mostly.

If the team is that loaded blame it on coaching. You can't fix stupid but you can coach situational awareness. Our secondary doesn't really have the ability to close because apparently they aren't taught too. Not only that but DA changes up what's been working and apparently only confuses the defense in critical moments. Three in three years causing an early exit from the playoffs.

I feel comfortable blaming Dennis Allen. Besides I've always thought he looked kinda' wormy.

He looks more like a volleyball coach.
