Saints Cap Moves: $33,780,933 cap space ….. 8 restructures, 3 extensions, 3 pay cut, 1 release [All current cap moves are in OP below line]

With all these retentions of current players, you hope the school of thought that says "it must've been the coaching" wins out.
There was a lot of individual talent on defense, they didn’t play as a cohesive unit. The same can’t be said for the offense, we had no true tightend, lack of depth at RB, no backup qb, and line depth was lacking.
