It is unacceptable for a defense in the nfl to be so bad.

Why this board population treats payton so differently than it treats miles is beyond me

Half the defense out, maybe that's a negative?

Because in the NFL you can come back from 3 losses

Have you seen the number of injuries on this defense?

The fricking Broncos would be struggling with this level of injuries

Miles inherited a Ferrari and didn't crash it into a bridge embankment for a decade or so

Payton inherited a Pinto and turned it into a Ferrari

The bad thing is when we get those guys back, we'll be in too deep a hole to recover.

Are we on pace to be the worst defense in the history of the NFL again?

Sean Peyton and Drew Brees. Offense is all that matters. Money goes to offense. It draws fans. Injuries are an excuse. Defense wins championships. Rest my case.

Its a long season. We need to win next week to have something positive for our bye. Hopefully when we get back from the bye we can get healthy. This team isn't as bad as it seems (and I admit it seems very bad).

I saw some good defense against a good Giants team last week. If we can get healthy then we can be average on the defensive side of the ball. If we can be average defensively then we can win alot of games with drew brees.

the problem is the coaches on defense suck. thats why the defense has sucked every year, because despite bringing in umpteen coordinators, payton has forced his minions on whoever the dc may be.

Both statements are true...but sadly, Payton never fixed the gas tank and now the Saints look like a Pinto that was hit from behind.

450 ypg over a 16 game season is 7,200 yards. That gets us the crown of worst defense ever.

That's because they have A good player (Mack) on defense that makes game changing plays. We don't. Hell, if our offense wasn't on the field so long, that 450 ypg would be closer to 550.
