NOF: Saints in position to get under the cap with ease and create another $30+ million in cap space to add new players

I think our talent is being limited more by the offensive and defensive lines than it is by the coaching. Using the DL as an example, here were our rankings the last three years on pass rush win rate:

2021 - 26th
2022 - 32nd
2023 - 31st

Is it really coaching that just can't figure out how to use talent, or are we overrating the talent because it's our team?

I would blame the front office more than the coaching, if we can get pressure and protect the QB but still can't win then the culprit becomes either the QB or the coaching.

I’d say that this still can’t be attributed to cap issues.
Davenport, and possibly also Foskey busting is a big reason for that.

Sure it would be nice to have kept Trey in hindsight, but we decided to roll the dice on Davenport and also during the most unique financial offseason ever, we (incorrectly) bet that Trey was a one year wonder.
