I guess, but I don’t look at it like that. Since Payton/Loomis took over they have tried to win the SB every year. Since they took over, only NE has more SB wins than them and probably only 2-3 teams have better overall records than them. If people don’t want to recognize and appreciate that success then I feel bad for them. Add to this the Bounty gate screw and the PI non-call and the Saints have a badge of honor in my mind.

You are right, I missed those. I should have said since the Saints won the SB, not since Payton took over. But the comparison team you put forward is not one of those teams, correct ?

Just one more than the Saints. And the other franchises have managed no more than the Saints and the vast majority less. Correct?
