So much for remaining under the radar...

Denver is 32nd in passing yards allowed
And 24th in Points allowed.

The return of 1 player is going to address all of that? Not hardly.

We have more starters injured than Denver does and we are doing fine.

Thank you. You spared me the time of having to post the same thing...

Von Miller might be a good pass rusher, but just as they say that your secondary can't cover forever without a pass rush, you also can't get to the quarterback if your secondary gets burned so quickly that you can't get up the field.

Champ Bailey is coming back, but I'm not sure what they can really expect from someone his age coming back from such a long layoff.

Don't really care what the media people say. They dogged the Saints out and left them for dead before the preseason even started. That in itself shows their lack of knowledge, so why should we give any merit to what they say now?

Snap! I agree. In fact, there has been so many years that the Saints have been trodden on that I will take any good stuff when it is deserved. And at the moment it is deserved. We are a good team.

**** the media, besides Glazer I don't pay much attention to what anyone has to say, most of it is just background noise

Big difference between being under the radar with the talking heads and being under the radar with the next team we're playing. I'll guarantee we're not under the radar with the upcoming teams.

I don't think we as a team are under the radar I think our d itself is under the radar. We've been highly effective offensively for years. But our d.. Is another story. We still are ranked 17 and 15 by some experts this week. Time to shake things up I guess.

Wonder how long it took for the 09 squad to get from under the radar. Was is when we backstroked past the Pats in the dome?

Everyone raved about us when we embarrassed the pats, we then cooled off and lost the last 3 games which once again put us under the radar for the playoffs and the rest is history

Nope... We were picked against for the Cardinals, Vikings, and Colts that year.

Remember.. Warner, Favre, and Payton.. there was no way we beat those QBs.

I'm not sure when the 2013 Saints were ever under the radar. 1st game of the season was "Sunday game of the week."

Collingsworth knows nothing so I take that as an endorsement.
