I had forgotten how awesome the Saint's D was in those years. I remember teams getting the ball and then punting on third and 20 something and they hadn't gotten penalties. I remember the Saint's game scores were mostly multiples of three. Darn shame that was true for the scores of both teams.
I also hadn't realized that other than the linebackers only one other defensive player went to the pro bowl with them. Shows that if you have enough strength at one position, the play of the other positions is raised.
It appears Sean Peyton want's a good linebacker core in New Orleans again. Even with the free agent moves he is looking at linebackers in the draft. There will never be another dome patrol, but it is time for the Saint's to have truly respected linebacking again.
