Oh no we will not.

The Offense is so different.

And on defense, the 2011 Rams worked with many personnel missing. The 2012 Saints will be fit and ready.

Now that I've finally regained my consciousness after I heard the news... I think that the penalties are way too harsh, but on the other hand, they could've been worse.

A lot will be determined by the penalties that any players will receive, because those are one thing that could potentially ruin the whole season.

The year-long suspension of SP is totally overreacting, and don't kid yourselves - that one is really going to hurt the Saints this coming season, but I do think Spags could do a good job as the interim HC.

The league/Goodell wanted to make an example of the Saints and cover their behinds for the law suits from former players with medical/health issues - I wouldn't want to be in the shoes of the next team that brakes some rules.

I'm just glad that the Saints still have some draft picks!

It's because players' safety is Goodell's #1 cause, and the league has so many impending law suits to deal with that are directly connected to the issue.
