Two teams One Defense

I was thinking the same. The Broncos O-Line looked eerily like the Saints. Chalk it up to that defense and call it a day.

We out ran, passed and scored, the greatest offense in history that had never faced a top 5 NFC defense in that season until the Super Bowl.

Ill take Payton, Brees, our WRs, our RBs, our entire team of the heralded Payton Manning any and every day of the week.

And the Saints put those numbers up in Seattle, in the cold and blowing rain where Manning and company had near perfect football weather.

In my opinion the Saints need to focus on upgrading the O-line to buy Brees more time in the pocket. Then get some real speed to stretch the D-secondary and make use of that extra time.

That Seattle defense was just that good.. pretty much all season long. For entertainment value, the Superbowl game was played 2 weeks ago (49ers vs Seattle). Very little 'pop and sizzle' to this one.

Yep, the top 4 teams in the NFL are Seattle, San Fran, Carolina and New Orleans.

My final top 10 power rankings...

1. Seattle
2. San Fran
3. New Orleans
4. Arizona
5. Carolina
6. Denver
7. New England
8. Cincinatti
9. Kansas City
10. Indianapolis

Top 4. Shouldn't we get a Bowl Game? Like the Tostitos Stale Chips Bowl?

I'd swap SF with New Orleans and Carolina with Arizona. But otherwise, that's about the way I would have listed them too.

Remember all of the comments from fans and members?
Drew is done
Our offense is soft
We cant run
Wish we had Denver's receivers
Wish we had Payton Manning
Wish we had a RB like Moreno
Sean Payton is a terrible play caller

Apples to apples except we played Seattle in the Clink.

We out ran, passed and scored, the greatest offense in history that had never faced a top 5 NFC defense in that season until the Super Bowl.

Ill take Payton, Brees, our WRs, our RBs, our entire team of the heralded Payton Manning any and every day of the week.

Dont forget those weather conditions we played in at Clink vs the clear SB

You cut out the bull and get to the point.
In my short time here, compared to the tenure of others, I credit your no nonsense / no bull method for increasing my succinct knowledge and ability to provide intelligent retorts to attacking cheeseheads.

With your influence and Danno (for the touch of 'tude)...I shred the cheese.
And with this I say Thank you!
