... I can respect that because there's valid argument for both and it's one of those things that'll never be decided ... and you did kinda' rabbit-punch me with the Lions comparison,

... just kidding ... I'm cautiously optimistic about Detroit's chances, they have the injury issues, the maturity issues, the suspension issues and a few other things to work through, but yeah, among the teams that have never made it to the show, I like our chances at being next,

Kelly's 4 SB appearances had a lot to do with the talent surrounding him (Lofton, Reed, Thomas) and a very good defense. Marino had some good WR's (Clayton, Duper) but no elite runner, nor the defensive support.

Heck, we FINALLY got ours after YEARS of heartbreak. If anybody knows how it feels to be the Lions, it's Saints fans!
