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

The Dude · 08-06-2011, 02:37 AM

I won't. We have the tools. We have the talent. There is no reason we should not be there lifting the trophy. I feel we have our window and it is now. Long gone are the days where just making the playoffs was the goal. We are in it to win it all. If we don't do it now, we may not have another chance. We lose in the first round I will be pissed. We lose the NFCCG I will be disappointed. We lose the Superbowl I will be aggravated. I want a SB victory. I think we will get one.

I just hope Olin doesn't break someones jaw..lol

I think that I would be content with the NFC championship 'cos the SB is a completely different animal compared to all other games, so anything can happen in that game. But with just a season removed of winning it all, I would think that the Saints will have the edge mentally against any other team they would face. And if it is Bill & Tom who the Saints face in the SB, then I hope big Shaun shows Brady what it really is like to be injured.

No, I want another super bowl right now.
All this talk about Mark Ingram looking real good and the massive additions to our defense are getting me too excited not to think otherwise than a super bowl win.
I can't wait to see us hit the field again!

First I just want to go through the year with a healthy team.

Continuing to be a winning organization is the most important thing to me. Showing you can make the playoffs again indicates that we're a club winning consistently. Once we get to the post-season I start thinking about SB.

With all the moves and excitment... this is probably the most complete team we have ever had.

The problem about setting expectations is that you don't get to enjoy the little things... the winning of games week in and week out. After all we are suppose to win right? Big deal we one a play off game we are suppose to win and get to the SB right.

After all the years of being a fan... I still do what I did back in the day. Just enjoy the week as it is just one game at a time. Enjoy each point, each play and be happy Monday morning and get ready for next week.

So I'll be happy when the team shows up to play game one.

If we absolutly play our best all season, limit our injuries, and beat the Falcons twice, I'll be ok with that. If we get into the playoffs and get beat by an obviously better team, I'll be ok with that, I'll be very dissapointed, but I know we played our best. If we get into the playoffs and pull another Seattle, then yes, I'll be pissed. A game like that is inexcusable.

After all those years of watching Archie run for his life...

...watching Bum Phillips trade away picks and talent for his ole' Houston boys, Mora percentage playing in the late 80's through the early 90's being second in the league to only San Fran...

...watching the Buddy D/Ditka experiment geaux bad along with a magazine cover that signals the decline of civilization...

then, then, then the Jim Haslett/Aaron Brooks equivalent of the Kobayashi Maru Scenario...

No, we must win another Lombardi...

...and then we'll worry about next season

I'd be okay with a deep, hard fought playoff run. As long as we put it all on the table, I'll be okay with whatever the results are.
