Snap Counts: Using three safeties has become the "base" defense for New Orleans Saints (1 Viewer)

Hold your horses there buddy .... our CBs were able to hold WRs on the outside and our front 4 were able to get to the passer in 2013 .... the current defense is no where close to that .... it was a good win against the 9ers but not a satisfying one as they had 473 yds of total offense and 398 in the air ...

Yardage means zero...points for and against do...

man if we only had kikaha for more pressure

Vaccaro led the Saints with nine tackles, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery; Byrd came in second with eight tackles, including several key stops coming forward against the 49ers' short passing game; and Bell finished with four tackles, half a sack, a quarterback hit and a fumble recovery.

Man, look at the Saints playing Safety for a change!

2013 defense caused tons of pressure. They're not doing that yet

Agree, but I was strictly referring to the 3 safety scheme.
