Saints Defense

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; If I’m not mistaken, didn’t the Saints break the record for not allowing a 100 yard rusher. If not, their close....

Re: Saints Defense

Think we are around 47 and I believe the eagles went something like 53, so pretty close.

Re: Saints Defense

According to what I just read the records is 59 by the Browns. But that was back in the 50s, so different era maybe?

Re: Saints Defense

Coach Ryan Nielsen.

IMO this the main reason why ELITE RB's aren't successful running the football on that Saints D line. He has been good since Day 1.

His name isn't mentioned enough on this forum.

Hopefully we don't lose this guy anytime soon.

That is exactly why his name isn't mentioned

Nobody needs to know his name.

Lol.

Nah, Ryan is deserving of a opportunity at Def coordinator. He'll eventually get his shot either in N.O. or elsewhere.

If we continue to perform well defensively, someone will call and give Dennis the menace another opportunity at HC, leaving a spot open.

I believe there was a reason for the calls for Allen and though that problem seems to have been resolved the stats still remain dont they? Then and now, we lead the league in defensive pass interference penalties and penalty yards. It was consistent enough that QBs were using it as a plan.

The fact that we have had only 3 DPI in the last 5 games and still lead the league in DPI penalties and penalty yards speaks to how egregious it was.

I’m not taking anything away from how the defense is playing now and Allen being the coach gets credit for what ever he did to turn it around.

Re: Saints Defense

They are ballin' out! I hope we get Jack rabbit back soon. He's been a valuable asset and P Rob and PJ have done alright but I don't want them out there any longer than necessary.
