well it was a 12 year window when we acquired brees 7 years ago right? so it is closing. especially after blowing what i feel would have been our second SB ring last year out in frisco.

The problem isn't the dc. Greg Williams defenses way over achieved with the dismal talent level. Out d line is one of worst in league and our linebackers are as a group sub par. The safety issue is terrible. Cb are not as bad as many on here think but with no pressure on opposing qbs from our front four they get exposed. The reason that parcels didnt take the job is this defense is without enough skill players to make a Super Bowl run. May I point to our last two playoff losses as exhibit 1. We need to make trades including on of our great running backs to get some skill in the defensive side of the ball or we will continue to loss 38 to 32. Spags must jplayer issues as his defense was playing better at the end in my opinion.
