Re: Will the Saints have a dynasty before Brees retires?

Ok I will bite.. First: The NFC is not dominant because of a per team comparison. It is that way because that is the way it is... But if you would like to compare I would say there is a huge difference... 4-1 Super Bowl trophies.... Or QB's that hold more than 90% of the NFLs QB records (Skill based... not longevity). Between Brees, Rogers, and Favre.. there isn't much left. In the last 5 years 4 of the SB Champions were NFC. Last year 4 of the 5 top Offenses were NFC. Last year 4 of 5 top producing QB's are NFC. Except for Brady... AFC QBs are at best "good". 2011 top 4 teams combined records: NFC 11% better NFC 50 - W / 14 - L - 78% W rate AFC 43 -W / 21 - L - 67% W rate Winningest Team for the last three years combined including play offs = New Orleans Saints! NFC Secondly: I do not know that ANYONE is good yet. I know there were some good teams last year but Detroit and the Broncos did not fall into that category on my planet. Nor do they come close this year based on last year.. Denver: 8-8 <---Please explain so i understand how this is good? Detriot: Wild Card <---Please explain so I understand how this is good? 49erd HAD a great Defense and the Patriots and Packers HAD great offenses. LASTLY: There is nothing about a 10 year period that is a Dynasty. At best its an Era. Presently there is only one team that comes close to ANYTHING resembling a Dynasty and that is the Pittsburgh Steelers. It has nothing to do with any QB or receiver... its the franchise. So to answer the question.. No... Brees and two more will retire before the Saints are any where resembling a Dynasty (If we keep our present win rates). With 3 more Brees would have an Era. Pittsburgh = Dynasty Terry Bradshaw = Era Joe Montana = Era |
