I don't think you are. It's obvious one of the biggest issues the team had this year was discipline. Another huge issue was teams adapting to last years offensive system, and Payton will find creative ways to get Jimmy Graham back up to the elite status of receiving tight ends. Darren Sproles was nowhere near as effective without Payton.
Thats all true, but those are all offensive issues. We were still 3rd in scoring this year.

Defense has always been the Saints downfall under SP. Payton doesn't line up and rush the pass rusher, play corner, outside linebacker, or safety.

The problems are the same as they've always been.

That is true too, but I think Payton is also a very good judge of talent, and is as good as Belichick in maximizing talent on both sides of the ball.
