QB: Keenum (below average, but serviceable)
WR: Demaryius Thomas (for 8 games), Emmanuel Sanders, Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick
RB: Phillip Lindsay (1000 yards at 5.4 ypc, 9 TDs)
Von had 14.5 sacks, Chubb had 12, Shaquil Barrett was a backup
Secondary had Chris Harris Jr, Darien Stewart and Justin Simmons (8 ints between them)
Unfortunately, the coaching was Vance Joseph, Bill Musgrave and Joe Woods.

Hard to hire someone who decided he didn't want the job. [Reply]

Nobody willingly chooses to go into Walmart when they have other options. Just like nobody chooses to coach for Denver when they have other options [Reply]

Same thing I've been saying. They're going to run that franchise like a Walmart. Bring in crappy products and distribute them to the masses while squeezing every last penny out of profit margins.
Leopards don't change their spots.
Sean Payton is nothing more than their ad campaign. Well compensated and set up to fail. He's back in broadcasting within 3 years - if he ever even leaves completely. [Reply]

In fairness I think Payton had other options, just not 18million of them. [Reply]
