It Was A Good Season

It is wonderful that we can get excited about our team. Sean Payton has made Saints football fun to watch.(mostly)
We just had such high expectations coming into this season that it was going to be almost impossible to repeat. But we made it back to the playoffs with only half the team able to play.

Exactly. The injuries were just out of this world, and yet we STILL won 11 games and made the playoffs. Hell, we were a missed FG away from HFA for the second straight year.

Yeah, it was a frustrating season in lots of ways, but at the end of the day we're still solid, likely to be even more so when we tee it up again. You know the franchise is headed in the right direction when not winning the Super Bowl has half the fan base ready to kill themselves.
