So much for remaining under the radar...

Under the radar ....? Even Tedy Bruschi picked us to win by 10.

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.

We are good, and we have to keep getting better.
We have to ramp it up every week as we keep winning.
Doesn't mean we have to score more and more points each week,
it means we have to figure out how to win the the 17-13 games too.
Everybody is locking us to win NFC south - our under radar is over.
We are in the Elite-3 unbeatens and teams will love to pin up our scalps in their locker room.
Not only do we have to be good, we have to be lucky a few times also.
Can't do alot about the lucky, but with Payton back, he's getting the good out of these guys.
I just hope they don't get all chummy when they start reading, hearing and seeing loads of good press.
Tough win in Chicago. Another tough road game this week going into the bye week.
I hope they focus and execute this week and whip the schlitz out of B&B...
then relax and refuel over the next two weeks.

the Eastcoast media bias is true, but when the Saints were good in 2011, we got a lot of good coverage. i mean, we were setting all types of records that year. seems as though, on most of the sports shows i watch, the Saints are always the quick topic to discuss while other teams, with worse records, get more time.

like the only reason they are discussing saints now a lot is because they are playin the pats.

graham is the deadliest skills position player in the league thus far and it is rarely addressed...

i love it.

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.
