Love the ranking, but we are gonna see what kinda metal we are made off real early on this season. A good free agency period good make us take us deep in to playoff land.

Our schedule is beyond brutal this year .... We will deserve our record.... and hopefully we can manage 12 wins or more. If not, then this ranking won't last long. Of course, the only ranking that matters is the one at the end of the year, as Green Bay proved this past year.

Glad to see the Superbowl champs ranked No. 1; you should stay No. 1 until they get knocked out of the playoffs or have had a significant decline during the following regular season...

Would like to be ranked behind the Falcons...

Most amazing is the AFC teams are not ranked at the top; but then this is Fox, home to the NFC broadcasts...

#2 pre-season ranking is an honor; but, as many have already said, it means nothing.

lets try to get the offseason started, and get into free agency and player signings. On Spetember 8, we will get to see which team is better.

We would have been playing in Dallas! That would have iced it for me.

Saints and Packers is the NFC Championship game and whoever hosts the game will win it.

Man dem power rankings don't win championships. Players do!. The saints got a whole lot of football players. No for real just down and drity old fashion football players.
