how can the offense NOT take a step back?

We still have drew Brees. With improved o-line play drew can tear any defense to pieces. if drew has time to throw the ball we will be fine on Offense.

With Watson and hill together we will have about same total TE production we have had ever year. Look at the stats since getting Drew the TEs put out about same stats. it just that with Jimmy he got all the stats instead of being split evenly.
