this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; If we can get lucky with a limited amount of injuries this season, I think this team is very capable of winning the NFC South ....

Re: Playoffs or bust?
That's the equivalent of saying the Pats are no longer the SB champs or the day after we won our SB that we were no longer the champs. In all actuality until Sept. 11 we are 7-9

Last season's franchise had vastly different coaching, different players and a different schedule. They were what their record said they were ... 7-9. The upcoming team has yet to play a game. They are also what their record says they are ... "to be determined" and at this point 0-0. |

Re: Playoffs or bust?
Can we field a team? Can we stay healthy?
The problem isn't three7-9 seasons......it's more like four out of the last five. And nothing really substantial for us to get excited about. I love Payton and the coaching change along with the new personnel in the FO, but we need to start strong or finish strong to keep the fans happy. And with us missing two of our offensive linemen I'm not excited bout our young defense having to win games because offense is losing in the trenches. |

We could legitimately see a better all round line this coming season even taking the injuries into consideration.

Excuse us for tempering our enthusiasm but it's been the same set of "promises" "for the last 5 years. |

Go ahead and wallow in your continuous cesspool of negativity. Relish in it! You are so sad. |

Never has it worked to simply ignore your failures as if they don't exist. Doing that is delusional. You have to be honest with yourself so that you can improve. Some people on this board have an inability to do that and when others pull back that thin veil from their delusions they lash out.
