The New Orleans Saints started out the season with all guns blazing. They have the potential to have the greatest offense the league has seen in the last 30 years which includes the 2007 New England Patriots team that set many NFL scoring records.
Drew Brees is playing like a MVP candidate and completing nearly 70% of his pass attempts, which is well above average. If he keeps this up, no defense can completely shut him down.
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.
Will they be just a good regular season team? Will they use all their offense weapons in January when the pressure is on also? Offenses this good don't come along this often so the Saints must make the most of the great players they do have now.
The Saints schedule looks a lot easier then it did in the start of the year, their division isn't as strong as it was in 08'. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are in a rebuilding process and the Carolina Panther can't seem to get anything together.
The defense is what the Saints need to keep opponents to a relatively low score - we know the Saints can score in bunches and quickly. But defense wins championships!
New Orleans has struggled financially the last few years and a good Saints football team is what the New Orleans community needs. Sports have been a great way to help bring communities together during tough times.
We know what happened with the 07' New England Patriots - they were on the verge of the greatest NFL season of all time but were defeated in the Super Bowl by the New York Giants. It uncertain the Saints can be as great an offense as the Patriots were in 07', what will matter is how they execute in the playoffs. - 29967
