Hell no.

I'm just saying our rantards are going to freak out that the stats don't show us as a top 3 defense, but there will be reasons for that. True quick-tempo, RPO offenses give their defenses less rest. Even when the Saints have a solid defense, they won't be elite in the scoring/yards stats because Drew scores too quickly and they have to go back out on the field.

I'd rather a top 15 defense and a top 20 offense than a top 3 defense and a top 85 offense

I think you can slow the pace down, shorter throws, and let the play clock run, to give your defense a breather, when they need.

Ideally, we could have the all the passing, and wide out sets, and still be able to hunker down, and play a little ball control when needed.
