      New Orleans Saints

      Offense is back, possibly better than last year. Defense is improved, duh, Jason David has always been the Saints opponents best player!!!

      The saints won't because of no defense, the panthers and the bucs won't because of no quaterback, the logical choice is the falcons, running game , quaterback and a good defense9 not great) but good enough to hold other teams until ryanand white make a play.

      No Defense .Where you been sleeping. Aparently you dont see what goes on in the draft and who is picked up,let alone hired. Its fixed my friend. Try to score with a massive offense. ATL. Cant do it. NO WEAPONS ON OFFENSE.

      Falcons arent doing anything this year. Carolina Is the only contender my friend.

      Sorry to all above..Carolina WILL NOT win the NFC SOUTH- everyone is under estimating New Orleans and even Atlanta for that matter...plus, Smith is hurt and will need time to heal and Jake is a lack luster QB who, without Smith, is just a marginal QB at best...

        After 41 seasons, the Saints just may have it together this year! Brees & company will be as good or better than last year. You have a couple of running backs that are out to prove something and they are talented! Defensively, we got rid of Jason David!! Who ya try to burn now!?! Seriously, D-backs are stronger and the new Defensive Coordinator has given new attitude to the "D". Saints were a threat last year with NO defense. Now, even with a middle-of-the-road defense, they will be hard to stop if most of them remain healthy! SAINTS TO THE SUPERBOWL!!... did I really just type that!?!

                    All three NY teams go down in a heap! NFC's number 1 defense? Please. The G Boyz D was pathetic. The Saints beat the over/under before the half BY THEMSELVES. The question is no longer whether the Saints will take the NFC South. Now the question is will they ever lose?

                      Well here we are @ week 9 and the Saints have soundly defeated both Atlanta and Carolina, and everyone else they have played for that matter...At this point it would be pretty much impossible for anyone else in the NFC south to win the division title. Carolina and Atlanta still have a shot at a wildcard spot and if I were guessing which I would give the nod to Atlanta because they have a better balance than Carolina this year....Still, the Saints are going to win the division title and will likely host an NFC championship game this year.

                              Both 12-4 , lets say Falcons beat Saints at Atlanta , and if Falcons Have

                              better division record then they end up with the Division .

                              Not taking anything from the great teams but still a lot of football to be

                              played ask coach Payton .
