Yes, New Orleans Saints have Super Bowl-caliber talent. But will it result in Lombardi Trophy?

I TOTALLY AGREE. Without those Hartley FG's agains MINN, we don't even get to the SB that year

Being that the playoffs are single elimination, a team can fly through the regular season, but then just have one off game and the whole thing comes crashing down.

I am not advocating a different format, I'm just saying that the playoffs are more about who is hot at the moment and has the ball bounce their way...and that's what makes it so interesting.

Case in point...the '07 and '11 Giants.

On paper doesn't mean a thing. THey never crown you because of your roster...

You actually have to play football.

If we don't get the big head I think we have an excellent chance to grab the Lombardi
