Is this where I'm supposed to put the "no respect" reply?

"The Saints defense(118 pts allowed in the last 4 gms) is starting to play like everyone thought they would at the beginning of the season" This statement is true.
Man, I wish they could get back to the way they played in the first 6 gms

about Panthers "DeAngelio Williams' emergence gives the Panthers so many weapons that the United Nations is thinking of asking for sanctions against North Carolina."
Aw, c'mon! Is that not a bit of an exageration!
To say that "the defense is playing the way everyone thought it would", and basing it on the past 4 games, is nothing more than lazy journalism and doesn't begin to tell the entire story.
vs Baltimore: the Ravens forced 5 turnovers, taking 2 back for TDs. Defense's fault? Hardly.
at Tampa: 14 pts allowed, and played very well (second quarter hiccup notwithstanding)
at Pitt: ok, hard to say much good about that defensive effort
vs Cinc: played pretty darn well to hold the Bengals to 10 points through 3+ quarters, especially considering the pressure put on them by our offense's failure to score points
