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. |

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.
