Will you be satisfied with anything less than a Super Bowl victory this year?

I think last season our expectations were so high. From the first preseason game we were saying TWO DAT. Jumping from PS game 1 overlooking 18 or so games right to the big dance. You can't do that. Too much football in between. I hate to say it but I think our players did the same thing. The lost to Seattle is the best thing that could have happened to us coming into this season. I think the team as well as the fans are hungry again. One game at a time fellas.

I know the answer is supposed to be "No". But the truth is, I will always love The New Orleans Saints, no matter what. I will always be thankful for another Saints season, and the opportunity to be alive to see it. Basically, today I'm alive and there is Saints football. I'm satisfied.

Exactly. When the Saints won the Super Bowl the first words out of my mouth were "this team never has to win another game in my lifetime". I too think we have the roster, the leadership and the heart to go after another this season. As long as this team competes their best every game I am happy.

Super Bowl or Bust......bottom line. Take no prisoners!!!

I'm spoiled. Barring key or excessive injuries I fuly expect the Saints to win it all. Anything less will leave me a bit cold.

We are more talented than any team in this league. To not win the Superbowl would be underachieving.

I won't be satisfied with anything less than another Lombardi this year. And we had better follow that up with another one by repeating. This team can take the pressure. Just win baby!

With the team we have now, I believe we should get to the Superbowl every year.

We are no longer in a complete re-building phase.

Anything less will be a disappointment.

At this red hot moment I am satisfied to simply have the game. We were precariously close to not having the NFL.

We have a good team...potentially a very good team. At this point a playoff run, I suppose, would satisfy me. Still, as the season progresses, and should we live up to our potential, there may come a point where only the Super Bowl would satisfy.

We'll see. I'm just happy to have the NFL this season and am enjoy the fact that I know my Saints will be competitive again.
