New Orleans Saints Super Bowl Hopes
The New Orleans Saints were the feel good story of the 2007 season. After having been the losers of the NFL for many years, the team suddenly found itself in the heat of a Super Bowl race in 2007, thanks in large part to Drew Brees, Reggie Bush, and Deuce McAllister.
QB Drew Brees is playing the best he has ever played and will be a favorite for MVP once the season is over. The 09' season should be a good one for the Saints franchise overall, many expect the Saints to play late in January.
The Saints have weapons all round the field from RB Reggie Bush, WR Marques Colston, WR Jeremy Shockey, WR Devery Henderson, and RB Mike Bell. With such a potent offense the Saints can outscore anyone in the league -which means they are never out of the game no matter what the score is.
While their offense was effective, their defensive game was in shambles and something was missing from the team that had so powerfully established itself during the 2007 season.
The NFC South isn't as good as it was in years past. The Saints should win the division - if everyone, especially Drew Brees, stay healthy for the entire season. The Saints should have many easy games on their schedule to rack up wins and get a high seed for the playoffs, it not the number one seed.
The only challenge in the division should come from the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons are a good team with a future MVP in Matt Ryan, the Falcons offense may not be able to keep up with the Saints.
The Saints won this game 48-22. While the absence of Donovan McNabb played a part in the ease in which the Saints won, the Philadelphia Eagles defense looked nothing like its week 1 self. The Saints were just that good on offense once again.
In order to bring a championship to New Orleans, Drew Brees must continue this level of play. More importantly, their defense needs to hold teams as well. They've been doing well and if they can keep teams to under 20 points per game, I have no doubt that Brees and his crew can put up more than that in every game. - 2368
