If the Saints were to stumble in the remaining games this season, how upset would we be allowed to be if they finished 8-8 or 9-7 and out of the playoffs? Before anything gets said, i have faith in the boys to make the playoffs, but if they fell short, could we really be upset? Lookiing at what Payton has had to work with, and the murderous schedule we had to play this year, should 9 wins really piss us off? Either way, this team has overachieved and i think it is clear that this team is being built to win next year and the coming years. With the exception of Horn on offense, the offense is very young, learning a new system, learning the NFL, and still trying to come together. The FO brought in an infusion of youth on offense this year and the potential is there to only get better.

I believe that in this offseason, you will see the majority of the draft and free agency focused on defense. The young o-lineman will only get better, and i do see the Saints addressing the WR and TE position and then focusing squarely on the defense. A young DT, MLB and a couple of corners, and this team will be as solid as any team in the league.

Payton has done a helluva job at getting these guys to play above their potential but there are still holes to fill....not all the holes could be filled in one year, but there is no denying that we are putting together a contending team for the next few years. Lots of money to play with, and a great core of players means this is something to be excited about.

So if luck isnt on our side the rest of the way out, this has still been a very exciting season and things are certainly looking up and although we could be disappointed, we shouldnt be mad regardless of how this season shakes out. Thanks for your time...Peace, I'm outta here!!!

It's all in the reflexes.
