Dynasty= 3 or more rings in less than 10 years.

Now you could say that you have a different opinion on what dynasty means.

Maybe you think that the bills had a dynasty when they WENT to the super bowl 4 times.

I consider a dynasty something that happens when a teams dominates a decades by winning the most rings in that certain decade than any other team.

The steelers did it in the 70s

The 9ers did it in the 80s

The cowboys did it in the 90s

The patriots did it in the 2000s

And I hope the Saints do it in the 2010s

I feel like our best chances of having a dynasty will happen while Brees is here(although payton will probably be here for a long time but you catch my drift).

So what do you think?

Depends on how our defense looks this season... We all know Drew can get us to the playoffs, the defense has let us down th past couple of years

Just need some takeaways and we are fully capable of returning to the bowl. We don't need a stellar defense, just good enough.

Depends on how long Brees can play at an elite level. I say he has about 3 more years to play at the level he is now and will slightly drop off from year to year after that. If we can win two more SBs I would consider us a dynasty but I don't know if the national media would. It will also depend on how long we can keep Payton and Brees together. 3 years ago Payton said he could not see him coaching for another 5 years, so who knows.

I think the Saints are good enough to do it. But not only do you have to be very good, the ball has to bounce your way a few times too.

The national media can suck it. We won't ever get the recognition we deserve, we never have.

The chances are much better with him.

I believe that we are a team of destiny. Therefore, we have the team to do it. If we win one more Superbowl and continue to put up- numbers like we do I believe that we are a dynasty in the making. I don't know that we would have to win three to be considered a dynasty. It's all in the eyes of the beholder. Payton has built a foundation that would support a dynasty.

I resent the notion that all it takes to be a dynasty is to win 3 times within 10 years... I've heard 3 times in a row and 5 times a decade, but 3 times just seems too low to be considered a true dynasty.

But like you said, it's a matter of opinion as there are no official determinants to what a dynasty is in the sport world, and with that said, I think the Saints have an opportunity to win couple of more rings with Brees as their QB if things fall into place for them. But with the modern salary cap restrictions - it's hard for one team to really dominate like they did in the past.
