It’s tough to find positives about a 2-4 start, with a defensive-minded head coach fielding a unit allowing the fourth-most points in the NFL through six weeks. But that’s where the New Orleans Saints are — so what are their specific areas of concern for Dennis Allen’s team?

To help find out, we checked up on the Pro Football Focus player grades on the season so far. These aren’t useful for any in-depth analysis, but they’re sometimes a good summary at a glance. In this case, we’re seeing some of the usual suspects, but several big surprises. Counting players who have seen at least 33% of snaps on either offense (134) or defense (127), here are the lowest grades after Week 6:
