August 09, 2007 5:45PM At least, some analysts aren't panicking. NFL.com's Vic Carucci still lists New Orleans among six NFL teams he thinks can realistically contend for a Super Bowl Championship, despite the Saints' awful preseason opener against the Steelers. His analysis makes the case that the New Orleans offense is potent enough to win it all, and any semblance of defense will be enough. I think given Sunday's performance, it may be too much to ask for that semblance. I jest. In truth, one never knows. One thing to keep in mind is that the longer the defensive struggles continue, the more pressure it puts on the offense, and the more mistakes start happening. Do I foresee doom and gloom? Not necessarily. It's just good to hold one's expectations in check this time of year anyway, and Sunday's performance provides the perfect excuse to do so. Let's hope the Saints look better against the Bills on Friday. I think they will. |
