Despite struggles, Saints rank with the NFL's elites in one category
Has it been a rough start to 2015 for the 4-6 New Orleans Saints? Definitely, but the team has made one big change at defensive coordinator, and they aren't out of the mix for a potential Wild Card spot as well.
While the defense has been a major issue for the Saints to this point, there is some good news. The offense ranks right there with a few elite NFL teams, according to Mike Jurecki.
It's pretty incredible that the other four teams on that list are almost certain to be in the playoffs, yet the Saints are still battling to remain in the mix. This truly shows that the defense has been a major cause for concern to this point, but does give hope that things can turn around sooner than later.
