I see a lot of people here beleive that the saints are going to be only average or slightly better this year.

I have a hard time understanding how anyone can have such lowly opionions.

We have the hightest scoring offense in the NFC. We have the best special teams unit in the leauge. That leaves only one unit to correct, which is defense. The defese could be a lot better this year and to beleive any differently is just being negitive.

Aaron Brooks threw as many touchdowns as anyone in the league, and while there might be question marks about him, this could be a break-out year for him.

If your waiting on the Saints to be head and shoulders above the rest of the teams, it just isn't going to happen. There is too much parity in the league today.

Everyone wants to talk about the collapse at the end of last year. That's fine but we also beat the Superbowl champs twice last year. That's right, we beat the #! defense in the league twice.

If anyone finds it hard to be optimistic about the Saints this year, then your going to be a miserable fan for the rest of your life.

So go ahead and look as the glass as being half emty, I see it as running over.

But I'm sure when the Saints start winning this year those fans will jump on the band-wagon??
