Sooooooo you do want ball control offense?



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

Not only that, an offense that routinely scores points compared to one that struggles changes the game plan for both teams usually leading toward less impressive defensive stats.
