I think we get caught in a few great defensive games here and there and have been ignoring a problem trending for years. DA can only beat qbs who stand like still, he is not a defensive guru. Our defense has never been great. We were tricked. We beat Tom brady alot so we and had defensive shut outside against qbs who suck like derek carr and Mac jones. We haven’t beat baker Mayfield once since he entered the división on 2 bad teams. Anybody in this chat with a little speed could beat the DA defense. Sure we can beat matt ryan but put ridder in and suddenly they can beat us. When was the last time you were confident in saints against a running qb. Barely have we won these games.
It’s because we keep drafting and WHIFFING on a certain DE prototype and outside of always being hurt they don’t have the speed to chase down players. Not saying that’s the sole issue but I bet it has a lot to do with it. They are just gonna keep drafting Davenport clones til one of the works out and they can say see we told you so
