Before the game:
#3 total defense at 302.2 per game
#9 in points at 22.2 per game
#2 in rushing defense at 74.3 per game
#12 in pass defense at 227.9 per game

After the game:
#1 total defense at 284.9 per game
#5 in points at 20.45 points per game
#2 in rushing defense at 76.6 per game
#4 in pass defense at 208.2 per game

Too lazy to look at all the games to adjust but for yards, the 2 teams who had a better defense than us going into this week gave up 348 yards and 449 yards respectively which would drop them below the Saints current totals for the season.

Have given up a total of 28 points in the last 4 games combined. Only one TD during that time.

New Orleans Saints defense over the last 4 games against Tampa, San Francisco, Atlanta and Denver:

7 points per game
156 passing yards per game
52 rushing yards per game
9 interceptions
15 sacks

Today they had more interceptions than the Broncos had completed passes.

One of the biggest moves was getting JANORIS Jenkins

Didn't Brees make a commercial a few years ago where he said we had "the best D in the league"?

I remember laughing every time I saw it on tv.

seriously... what was NYG's issue last season when they just threw him out at the very end of the season?

ETA: getting Kwon Alexander at the trade deadline has been just as big this year

I'm actually kind of pissed that we didn't get the shutout, but then I remembered that Brady's O was able to put up the same amount of points as the Broncos without a real QB.

i would think Jack Rabbit was acting like a general pain in the arse playing for a team like the Giants at that point. This Defense we have is ridiculous now with Kwon. Every starter in nickel is a beast and feared.

I'm holding off on wearing the crown until Seahawks/Eagles & Ravens/Steelers is played

that said... the transition of our defense over the last few years has been AMAZING!!!

I don't want to lose Jeff Ireland

Prepare for the ignorant media to discount our defense all year by saying "those stats are inflated due to that joke of a Denver game" while disregarding that we were a top D going into that game.

I was just posting fast Lester

Here is old chart



Still fitting the defense would get its shite together this year

But Brees gets a good defense, and pushes Brady’s shite in

So we will now have 4 seasons with Brees top 10 defense, and Brady with 4 years without a top ten scoring defense?

Makes sense
