Last year the Saints set a new NFL record by allowing 7,042 total yards over the course of the season, a pathetic defensive performance that resulted in New Orleans making wholesale changes on defense, including hiring coordinator Rob Ryan, who had just been fired by the Cowboys.

This year, Ryan has turned the Saints’ defense around. But his old team is threatening to break his new team’s dubious record.

After last night’s pathetic performance in a loss to the Bears, the Cowboys’ defense has allowed 3,880 passing yards and 1,669 rushing yards for a total of 5,549 yards on the season. That means if the Cowboys allow 1,494 yards over the final three games, they’ll break the record. That works out to 498 yards a game, and last night the Cowboys allowed 497 yards to the Bears.

The Saint's record is safe.

I am assuming Flynn is the QB for Green Bay next week and that the Cowboys keep the Pack under 400 yards.

This team has drafted a defensive lineman only twice in the first 3 rounds in 7 years: Tyrone Crawford, '12 & Anthony Spencer, '07. That says so much about where their priorities lie, and why they are forced to take to the streets for D-linemen so often. Football is football. It is won or lost in the trenches, and our trenches suck. That is why this is the worst defense in team, & maybe NFL history.

Nothing to laugh about here. We're stuck with the worst general manager in league history who happens to own the team, until he croaks.

What do both teams have in common? No head coach...
