Yet again, the Saints will head into the offseason looking to remodel a defense that failed to hold up its end of the bargain. Sources say head coach Sean Payton is likely to consider a few options — either keep the defensive coaching staff intact and make a philosophical change or fire D-coordinator Gary Gibbs. The Saints made five major additions, through free agency, trades and the draft, on defense last offseason, adding MLB Jonathan Vilma, CB Randall Gay, DE Bobby McCray, DT Sedrick Ellis and CB Tracy Porter to the mix yet despite that infusion of talent, the defense’s improvement has not been significant enough.
