Saints defense is currently ranked 25th and tied for 6th in takeaways. That's all we need from them. Just keep it up.

They need to not give up 300 passing yards in the first half to bad teams. Once that happens, I'll be feeling mighty fine.
I'm not sure where that 25th ranking comes from. From what I see, we are 30th in yards and points per game right now.
This is real

Allen is good at making adjustments. Also it hasn't been mentioned but where is Peter Giuntha at? I always wondered if we'd place a guy in the sky box to get a good look at what teams are doing from above. Granted they get still frames anyway and adjustments can be made that way but just a thought.

You can't expect to get a bunch of fumbles every week. They also went for it on 4th for no real reason instead of taking the points.
The defense was much better in the 2nd half, but if we want to actually make the playoffs this year, you can't give up 480ish yards to the league's 28th ranked offense. It will catch up with you if you keep doing that. I expect us to be better this week in the dome with Breaux and Moore having a full week of regular practice to get them back in the grove.
Oh yeah, and can someone tell Allen to just stop running so much soft zone in 1st halves. It's not working and it continually leads to giving up too many points early.
