Saints axe Spagnuolo, move to 3-4: The day after Saints head coach Sean Payton reunited with his team in Mobile, Ala., and claimed his team's defense kept him up at night, the team fired defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo and announced they were changing to a 3-4 front. Secondary coach Ken Flajole was also fired. Last season the Saints ranked 31st against the pass, allowing 281.9 yards per game and 31 touchdowns through the air. They also ranked dead last vs. the run allowing 147.6 rush yards per game and 18 scores.

In the past it has taken time for defenses to adjust to a scheme change but in the last few years we've seen the Packers, Texans and Broncos make a transition defensively with good results. To be fair we've also seen the Bills, Colts and Eagles make drastic changes to their defenses and fall short of being dominant in Fantasy. Let's see who the Saints add to rush the passer this offseason before we consider them a sleeper option in Fantasy.
(Updated 1/25/13). |
| The Saints defense will undergo some significant changes in 2013 as it switches from a 4-3 front to a 3-4 scheme under the eye of new coordinator Rob Ryan. It can't get worse than what they've had of late. In 2012 the defense registered 30 sacks, 11 forced fumbles, 15 interceptions and a league-worst 440.1 total yards per game. One big issue is that switching schemes doesn't always work so well, and another is that coach Ryan has struggled in stops in Oakland, Cleveland and Dallas to build effective defenses. Though they added some promising players like Keenan Lewis, Victor Butler and rookies Kenny Vaccaro and John Jenkins, we wouldn't run the risk of drafting the Saints DST. (Updated 5/10/13) |
