Midseason Saints progress report: Grading offense, defense, special teams
 

How do the New Orleans Saints grade out after eight games? With eight more still to go, they seem to be getting healthy and playing hot at the perfect time. But it’s worth looking back on their full body of work before rating each phase of the game, so here are our thoughts on the Saints offense, defense, and special teams units at midseason.

Getting Davenport back gave the defense a huge boost. Our intensity level is higher. I'm reasonably excited about Alexander making a difference in blown coverages by Thor who has been a step too slow this year. The offense is finally getting it's injured players back and playing better game after game on their way to becoming dominant again.
