Amen!

Once again you have overachieved. LOL

The only team I don't feel comfortable playing in the NFC is the Packers. As far the rest of them... bring 'em on.

Not the Eagles.

Honestly, as it stands right now, the Saints wouldn't be in very good shape against any of the projected playoff teams. With that said, there is still time to get guys healthy, some veterans rested, and to get it rolling again. A healthy defense backfield should mean Gregg Williams can get back to more aggressive football. I think the offense is going to be fine, but there is no way they can be explosive sitting on the bench. Again, goes back to the defense, they need healthy/rested players to be able to put the offense back on the field. Right now with the injuries, and players wearing down, the Saints are easy to both pass and run against. Getting players back and healthy again is going to be key. There is no reason why the Saints shouldn't be able to dominate in the post season if key guys like Ellis, Porter, Gay, and Greer can make it all the way back.
