While there isn't a lot of coverage on the Saints nationally, players turned analysts like Marcus Spears and Dan Orlovsky have been pretty consistent this offseason saying watch out for the Saints in the NFC.

National media drives eyeballs and clicks by questioning what they see. The question they ask about the Saints is whether or not Winston is the Winston from Tampa Bay 3 years ago, the Winston in the first 7 games of last year, or possibly something else. What the media is consistent about is that they will question, and question, and question until you actually deliver. And then they will start questioning again right after that.

You could see this in the past few weeks and this week with the NBA. The drumbeat question was "Will Steph Curry be considered an all time great if he wins a 4th championship and finally wins the Finals MVP?" this question was asked each and every day. It comes to pass on Thursday. The question on Friday?: "Can the Warriors repeat as champions and can Curry win another MVP?"

It's just how their producers operate. Frankly, it gets old after a while. But it is the reason the questions in the NFC are always "Can Dak and the Cowboys...?" "Can Arod and Green Bay...?" "Can Brady do it again?" "Can Philly climb the mountain again?"

The Saints used to be on that list with Brees because of the 2009 SB Win. But Winston is promise unfulfilled with the nation media. So, they will continue to question until that question is answered.

It's always best to just ignore it. I generally just treat it as background noise in the mornings...

	Super Bowl Championships: New Orleans Saints:1, Carolina:0, Atlanta Chokers: STILL ZERO Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
