Nope.

Honestly I see no reason why we can't win this game. It's a matter of if Payton can get these guys geared up with the short week.
I'm not even sure it's a matter of getting geared up. The Saints have quickly learned how to play smart tactical football. The coaches seem to be game planning the hell out of the opposition. And the offense is both talented enough and getting enough good plays called to be very effective. Brees is generally making excellent decisions and spreading the ball to playmakers all over the field. I have a feeling that spreading out the Panthers and running the ball right at them is going to be real successful in this game.

When/if we win, there will be another reason from critics why we're still "3 years behind Atlanta" and why we still suck.
Absolutely. I think that nothing short of going 3-1 against both the NFC East and the NFC North is going to gain any measure of respect. We're going to have to beat the Cincys and Eagles of the NFL to garner that respect.

Super Bowl Championships: New Orleans Saints:1, Carolina:0, Atlanta Chokers: STILL ZERO

Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.

I agree with this^^^

But, as long as we continue to win(about 3 to 4 games more) they'll count those as emotional up-pushes
But until we lose or close battle with teams like the Eagles, they're on our backs about how they overrated us, but let a team that is 4-7, panthers,and if they win it's all...They won b/c their "SuperBowl talented" team, in all the while we've swept them or beat them already
