With their coaches back their defense and offense looked strong. They nearly shut out the Raiders in the first half, giving up a last second touchdown (the only thing Flynn did well). The thing that I found most worrisome was how well their offensive line pass protected. I still consider our pass rush our greatest weakness and when Drew Brees had time he absolutely picked apart the Raiders. The LOB is awesome, but even they have limits when QBs have ridiculous amounts of time (see Atlanta game). Granted it was preseason, but even the announcers said they were playing at regular season tempo. We'll have a lot more information about the Saints by the time we play them. However, if pass rush does not improve, Brees is going to pick us apart.
