Worse talent level in Payton era

This is the worst overall talent we've had since Sean Payton has been here . Take away Drew Brees and I'm pretty sure we go winless in the NFL this year . All the people saying this is 2006 all over again are crazy this team is nowhere near the talent of that team . I know it's been beat to death but the lack of quality draft picks and overspending on players that haven't produced dick have finally come back to bite us . Mickey will not survive this nor will Rob Ryan. Payton will not be fired . 4-12 . At least I'll move up on the waiting list????

No way. Those 2007/2008 teams were so devoid of any defensive talent. We have talent, but it's a lot of inexperienced talent. Dudes can play though.

2007 secondary was worse. Our corners are better now. I'm not sure what Vaccaro and Byrd are at this point.

I don't think Porter even played much. Didn't he get hurt early that year?

Either way, that defense was bad.
