No, obviously we're not a dynasty at this point. Here's how I'd define a dynasty ...

- 2 Championships in a 5-year span
- Perennial playoff contender in 5-year span, preferably longer
- Star players, big name players
- Additional fans and merchandise nationwide
- Non-fans get tired of hearing about that team

By my definition there were only two dynasties in the NFL in this decade - New England and Pittsburg. For the Saints, this would be, at best, year 1 of a budding dynasty. And if Armageddon comes in 2012 we're screwed.

I guess what people call a "dynasty" in football is a team that wins 3 championships within 5 years. You only hear the 70's Steelers, the 80's Whiners, then 90's Cowboys, and the 2000's Pats being referred as a dynasty.
