The D is still dead last in the NFL. 28th in pts per game. There is no denying that. Tough to do it all by himself. Not saying the D didn't show up tonight, because obviously it did. But it's just what Brees has become accustomed to this year.

The D calmed down after their early struggles. They really did play hard, I'm proud of their effort

we just made a lot of mistakes.

Strief has struggled a lot anyway in protection this year. They shut down our run compared to the last time, Brees had to carry the load.

The difference in the defense we saw yesterday and the defense we saw at the beginning of the season is astronomical. The numbers are going to still look like shite because the D was so, so bad to start off, but it has improved dramatically over the course of a few games. 5 interceptions and only 23 points from the Falcons.. Damn good defense. Easily would have been 35 points with the way the D was before, not to mention how many TDs they would have scored otherwise.
