Don't laugh. After starting 0-4, the Saints have a shot at finishing 12-4.

Cole: #10 - "A week ago, I talked about my gut feeling that Jacksonville deserved to be ranked No. 4. So much for that. It's one thing for the Jaguars to lose, but to give up 41 points in the process is just ugly. … New Orleans gets a big bump up "

Robinson: #11 - "Since starting 0-4, Drew Brees' numbers are through the roof. Over the last four games, he's got a 115.1 quarterback rating, completing over 71 percent of his passes for 1,246 yards, 11 touchdowns and one interception."

#8 Saints - The Saints are officially on a roll. Winners of four straight after Sunday's offensive explosion on Jacksonville, New Orleans improves to 4-4 after an 0-4 start to the season. Drew Brees went nuts, going 35-49 for 445 yards and three touchdowns. Marques Colston hauled in 10 passes and Reggie Bush compiled 114 yards of offense. If there was any negative to this Saints' steam-rolling, it was Olindo Mare's kicking performance. The former Dolphin went 2-for-4. A half-game behind the Bucs in the NFC South, the Saints take on the 0-8 Rams this weekend.

11 (19) Saints 4-4-0 Expect the Saints to make the playoffs. Why? Not only are they on a roll (four straight wins) but consider their second-half schedule: Five of their eight opponents are either last or tied for last in their respective divisions.

Blah, blah, blah.

You're right, they're gay. But it's an idicator that the "cheese" is being spread around again. I just hope the Saints have learned their lesson.

The power rankings really do not mean very much, but still a decent indicator of how a team is currently playing, or at least the opinion of how a team is playing. All that matters in the end is the team that holds the trophy after the Super Bowl is complete.

Now, something that could be a little more interesting would be draft order if the season were to end today. That would really say where a team is at for the current moment.

Where would you rank the Saints among NFC teams?

Lets win the division first. Keep away from all the media hype. Didn't we learn a lesson already about that. I will talk power ranking at the end of the season. Being hot does not make you a good team. Consistent play does.

So, no ones opinion should be spoke????

Then why have this website? Why did you join this website; if not to speak YOUR opinion? I don't understand you Euph. The way I take what you wrote, is that our opinions don't mean anything here and that we should just shut-up.

I think reading the "Power Rankings", lets us as fans read what NON-FANS, think about our team. We are all grown men and women here, we know that a power ranking doesn't mean anything other than the WRITERS OPINION.

Is it just me....or isn't free speech in the BILL OF FREAKIN RIGHTS and part of being an American. I, as a few others on here, individual freedom is just a tiny small reason why we have fought a war for OUR country. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Good post WHODAT205, keep it up.

Power rankings are for middle school girls after their first period and gay men in love with their Dysons.

That's not just my opinion, it's fact.

Just for future refrence there is no "FREE SPEECH" on the internet. One's post can be deleted, censored ect, and whatever. America you can have free speech but the internet is not America and most sites or owned. The owner of the site has the right to allow what speech he allows on his site, its not what you call "free speach".

... I never told anyone to shut up or not post this garbage at all. What I merely support is a disclaimer on these type 'articles' that either a so called journalist or intern rights who know very little about football its a job for them and they can be bias. I know I know you may know this but some people come to this site and others hell even read the BS in the actual article and get themselves all hot and bothered about something or the other and its really point less they mean nothing. Its no more or no less if we got together and posted on here a "BLACK AND GOLD - POWER RANKING" and we rated the Saints number 1 each and every week dispite now winning the SB. Its the exact same thing.

Those rankings only mean something in college football... GO LSU.

I really don't get the pile on Euphoria stuff. Why do you guys care? I knew before I ever made this post that he'd say "power rankings are gay". I just don't care. Hell, I disagree with about 75% of what he posts. Faine sucks? Whatever. The D-Line is overpaid? Prove it. If you don't like it, ignore him. There's just no sense in getting so worked up about it.

But that's just my opinion.

He did have one good idea. Who's up for a B&G Power Ranking? We can do it like the AP. List your top 12, we'll rank them on a points scale based on all the votes - #1 = 12pts, #12=1pt.

#1 - NE
#2 - Indy
#3 - Pitt
#4 - Dallass
#5 - GB
#6 - Tenn
#7 - NYG
#8 - Det.
#9 - CLE
#10 - NO
#11 - SD
#12 - Wash (I refuse to put anyone from the NFCW in the top 12)

Fair enough... and I agree with you. I was asking the question are we getting enough bang for our buck. Over 2 million a year for a DE that has done what this year??? I am not saying he isn't good but is he worth it? Can you find another DE to do better or live up to the expectations that he set for himself. Faine there is a whole different thread for that discussion please see it.

So you do agree with me we ought to have a black and gold power ranking so that one thing. I'll have to keep a running tally, lol. So far looks like 2 out of 3 so thats over 50 percent agreeing with lol.

What I do think is funny is that someone will post something against what I posted but in actuality they are agreeing with it... its like they just want to disagree with me just for fun.

This, I gotta admit, is one of the funniest and truer things I've seen on this site in a long time.
