I think that we have to realize this Truth:

The New Orleans Saints Defense is not designed to be a "Stone Cold Dead Stop Defense." There is not enough talent on the Saints D to accomplish that.

The Saints D has one mission: slow down the opponent just enough to allow Drew Brees to win the game. The talent is not there to expect anything more out of the Saints D.

If you say that the Saints need more talent on the D side of the ball, then, yes, I agree with you.

I don't expect them to not let the opponent drive down the field EVER.. Gregg Williams' D is all about blitzes and that leaves a lot of open receivers, but the D got torched in the 1st half. Whatever adjustments were made at halftime seemed to help shore up the D and they made stops when necessary and got 2 turnovers. But at first it was looking grim.
