I asked the question last night but there was so many games happening, I think people preferred ignoring it.
So I know how football is played, I even understand the metagame about what's wise, conventional wisdom, etc..
However, I am an utter newb when it comes to the NFL. Like.. Who are the good players. Who was hired by which team. Etc.. I don't follow these, so sometimes a team's aspect gets better or worse without me understanding what they changed.
A few years back, I asked "why are the Saints suddenly gettinng good" and a few gentlefans indulged me and explained to me what changes they made to their offense. It was very nice of them.
I have another question for this year: the Saints defense seems a lot more solid this year than last. Have they made significant changes? Got new players, new coordinators? Less injuries?
To point out the level of ignorance I have, the only Saints D player I know exist is Anzalone because he got Thor hair and a funny name. And he's injured now.
