Saints Defense what's the secret?

[MVPccaffrey]

How are they limiting all these good offenses to 3 points or fewer quarters?  Minshew was gashing us but can't do poo against them.  Strangled Big D and Tampa previously.  

 

Payton isn't even supposed to be a defensive minded coach

No, they are 19th in yards and 17th in points

He's a good coach who has a SB win. Called a f'n onside kick and poo and had a pick 6 vs manning.

He's just vicodin crazy enough.

Field position in the 1st was a mess for the jags.

imagine being concerned about defenses when we have Kyle Allen. bring out the 83' Bears and we'll carve them up.

Kamara and a dynamic offense probably means they are winning time of possession battles and keeping other teams offenses off the field.

Sean Payton brought in Dennis Allen.

They are an average to below average defense in every measurable way.

Saints were not among the preseason favorites for nothing, and it wasn't just for the offense. 

They got playmakers (Cam Jordan, Demario Davis, Marshon Lattimore) at all 3 levels on their defense.  Plus their defensive line overall is way better than in years past.

We don't win the division without taking them down at least once and maybe both times this year.

Bradberry isn't Lattimore.

This isn't a knock on Bradberry, but he's not as athletically gifted as Lattimore. Lattimore is able to recover and stick with his guys a lot easier than Bradberry. In fact that whole secondary is more talented atheletically than ours.

So for example when D.J. Chark, 6'3 and runs legit 4.3 is matched up against Crock it's a lot more of a difficult matchup for us.

That said our front 7 is dramatically better.

Minshew 13/26 163 yards 0 TDs, 1 INT so far

Last week 26/44, 374 yards 2 TDs 0 INT
