New Orleans Saints most improved team in NFC South, NFL.com says

1. New Orleans Saints:


Why the Saints are marching again: Some of Drew Brees' best years were the ones when New Orleans was also a top-five rushing team. Adding Spiller to the mix alongside Mark Ingram gives the Saints some teeth in the trenches. Max Unger, a perfect center to pair with a cerebral quarterback, should help get their offensive line back on track as well. Add in the fact that New Orleans has two of the first 31 picks in this year's draft, and the panic over the Jimmy Graham trade begins to subside just a little.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

And if Evans is healthy this might be the best line we've had since the Evans/Nicks/Goody(v1) years

Kind of ironic, they were throwing us under the bus a little more than 3 weeks ago...

There's about 20 regulars posting here who know more about the Saints than any of the talking heads on the tele.

Yeah, and they also said Saints were going to the Super Bowl last season. I can do without their prognostication.

I'm not 100% convinced that we'll miss him.

I think we just spread it out to 4 or 5 weapons instead of 2 or 3.

Pick your poison. We simply went from 2 or 3 poisons to 4 or 5 poisons.

The end result is that we still kill you.

Speaking of Jimmy - he's apparently not winning over this guy.

Michael Bennett of Seattle Seahawks still feels Jimmy Graham overrated

Maybe he'll dirt roll this guy in practice. I still like the kid - except when his play hurts the Saints...
