If so, please pick up your "homer" nametag at the front desk.

From last to mid 20's; absolutely!

Just enough to put a whoopin' on the NFC South and make the playoffs

That's all we need when you have the best offense in the league, anything better and we get another '09 season....

But going from an F to D- isn't exactly cause for celebration.

In 2011 we ranked 13th in points allowed, the Falcons ranked 18th, and we swept you as well.

Looks like that fat kid kicked your ass, stole your lunch, and had his way with your girlfriend.

When will you homers learn.

Turning around and bashing the Falcons isn't a cogent response.

I myself want a lot of changes in Flowery Branch.

But "Bwaaah! The falcons are bad too!" is not appropriate defense of your Saints' various inadequacies.

Not using your birds as justification, I just enjoy laughing at their expense. Its fun.

And pointing out that we had the 13th ranked defense in 2011 doesn't have much to do with the Falcons. It simply points out how we weren't the "F" team you suggested.

I can see comprehension, much like Falcon postseason success, is still a mystery you.

The Saints defense of 2012 was inadequate. However, we've improved at every level of the defense. Akiem Hicks did well as a rookie, and should be an improvement. Cam Jordan had 8 sacks and was excellent against the run. Now he's back in the 3-4. Broderick Bunkley was the #1 rated DT when he played in the 3-4. We drafted John Jenkins, a 1st round talent from Georgia.

We have two tremendous leaders in Curtis Lofton and Johnathan Vilma. Junior Gallette and Martez Wilson have both proven to be able to get to the QB, racking up sacks in back up roles.

We drafted Kenny Vacarro and signed Keenan Lewis, as well as returning to a man to man scheme which will greatly benefit Pat Robinson and Jabari Greer. We're now running a system that better fits out personnel.

So, with al that said, its more then safe to say the defense will improve. We won a Super Bow with a lot of these players, and actually have a much more talented defensive roster then we did when we won it all.

You couple that with the fact our offense will more then likely be top 3 as always and you have a dangerous team. Just like we've been for the past 7 or 8 years.

Now you have the Falcons, who got weaker on the o-line and secondary. Then replaces their best pass rusher with a washed up, never healthy Osi Umenyiora, who I don't believe was even a starter on the Giants last year. So if you believe the Falcons can win it all, there's no reason to doubt the Saints, whom have the Falcons number. If you aren't a "homer" you can't deny that either.

Not trying to win anything. I just like exposing the flaws in an obviously arrogant troll's posts.

I'm an obsessive corrector.
