One freak play away from the NFC championship game then one horrible non-call away from the Super Bowl.

Ya gotta admit, this is one hell of a good corner to be in.

You make a simple, strong case, but...

I'd rather the team be built to win each year like the Patriots or some of the other annual contenders than put all our eggs in one basket for one season...

And let's be honest, it was more than a horrible non-call, it was a badly called game by Payton that killed it...

I get what your sayin but I see it a little different.

I don't think Payton/Loomis get enough credit for the way they've transformed this team. After the 3rd consecutive 7-9 season I had my doubts but now, I'm about as confident in this front office as I could be. (Even after the stupid *** Easton contract)

For a decade the Saints were a high octane passing team and they had a lot of success. But with Drew's impending retirement, they've changed this team into a hard nosed running team with a stout defense. Whomever the next QB is going to be, they've set them up the best way they can.

For years our rival's fans have been drooling at the thought of the years of rebuilding the Saints will have to do when Brees retires but I think they've already done it, or at least a long ways toward it.

That's just how I see it anyways.

Your right. The freak play against Vikes I can live with because we did that to ourselves. Last year is a different story it was taken from us. F it. Run it back with most of the core intact.
