Why the 2018 saint can go further than 2017

I think the D was only a MLB away from being top 5 anyway. But they managed to also add a first round pass rusher, a slot corner and some safety help. Sky is the limit for this D if it stays healthy.

The offense needed some help on 3rd down and some weapons were added, no worries there.

You never know what trials and tribulations you might face during the season, but playoffs is the minimum expectation for the team right now and it's been a while since we could say that in the off-season and actually believe it.
