Unless a club is completely clueless and unprofessional the Saints won't sneak up on anyone.

I, personally, prefer a Ravens type of team. A team that has an awesome defense and average offense. The irony is that I loathe the Ravens. Make no mistake, I love this Saints team but I miss the tough defense this team had in the late 80's and early 90's. I want teams to fear our defense again.
If only this offense could have the Dome Patrol defense...

If you ask me I think Sean Payton and Joe Vitt should sit the entire Defense down, get the Saints video people to put together a video of how our Defense was during the DOME PATROL days. The Defensive players should be shown that there is a history here when it comes to DEFENSE not offense, they need to be shown why our expectations are always pretty high when it comes to DEFENSE. If they are aware of the pride we once had in our DEFENSE then maybe they will understand how to really play New Orleans Saints style DEFENSE.

Average offense I don't think is enough. We had average back in those days and....we lost each playoff game thanks to avg. offense (I could strangle Carl Smith for how boring he made our offense look.) They way I see it....we are almost if not there. The Niners of yesteryear look a lot like we do now. Killer offense...."good enough" defense. If the new players can can gel quickly with the starters from last year.....we'll be fine.
