They are currently looking really good. One of the best looking Defenses I've seen in Preseason. Breese looks much stronger. Secondary is overflowing with talent. 2nd and 3rd string LB look good. Chase Young is making a difference.

Another factor that bodes well is that pressure up front leads to rushed passes, which generates INT’s.

Great coverage in the secondary causes the passer to hold the ball longer, leading to “coverage sacks.

Me like… me like!

Our defense: “sit your arse down and shut your arse up!

Like every other stat in preseason those are meaningless.

While there may be a grain of truth to what you said, why the negativity? I think I saw you comment in another thread and it’s nothing but negativity. Out of 5 comments yours is the one that says everyone stop being happy and being giddy about the possibilities. Lighten up or find a forum where everyone is happy being grumpy

That may be, but it’s something to nibble on until the season actually starts

Stats aside, they pass the eye test with me. They are fast and the defensive line is getting great penetration without over playing the run. Now add Lattimore and Davis to that effort. They have the variables to be able for Allen to defensive game plan against anyone.

Are you a moderator? I wasn’t being negative. Penning’s stats mean nothing, RBs struggling are meaningless stats. Good and bad stats are meaningless. That is a fact!

It’s stuff for the players to build off of and it’s stuff for the fans to be excited about.

Nobody needs to be a moderator to identify serial negativity. People don’t wanna read that crap now.

That's why this season is going to be better than most think. Because the offense won't have to score a lot of points for the Saints to win. By the end of the season, this team will be rolling.

Ok I’ll just serve up the grape kool aid from now on.
On second thought I’m not sure anyone can see just how good this defense from those stats. I don’t see a weakness anywhere at all three levels and their performance in the preseason certainly exemplifies that.
How’s that, better?

DA knows defensive talent and can coach them. Let’s hope Kubiak can do the same with the offense. Currently the offense lacks talent, but moving forward let’s hope he strengthens it. In SF he had a talented tightend and running back combo. Can he find some gems among the young players?
