I just want to see them make the Super Bowl (something I thought I would never see in my lifetime). However, when you look at the potential of this group... Seventeen NFL Franchises have won a Super Bowl. However, no NFL Franchise has ever won 19 games in a season. This team could change the entire legacy of the New Orleans Saints Franchise in NFL History. People would not immediately think of the Saints as being a lower tier Franchise for 40+ years, but their first impression of the Saints would be for having the greatest (single season) NFL team ever. To me, that is worth more than 3 random Super Bowls. Additionally, being a small market team with a great story (4 years removed from Katrina), how many young national football fans, who don't live in a NFL city, would join on the Saints bandwagon and adopt the Saints as their team of choice? Those intangible things would go along way for the NFL to keep the franchise in New Orleans forever. We (Saint's Nation) are witnessing something very very special, make sure to savor each week of it and enjoy the ride.

That's it. Why not wish for better than perfect? I wouldn't mind going perfect in the process... putting our own unique stamp as the Best Team Ever in the process.

Short week, just played the biggest rival, and the defense had problems with edge runs all night....and the CAR running game was hitting on all cylinders last week. el tigre I understand your point,but,this isn't college,these guys are professionals.Carolina has beaten us pretty good over the past three years.That alone will be enough motivation and we are at home.No let down this Sunday.Carolina will have to play perfect football and the Saints will have to lose the turnover battle.

If undefeated still, this game will most likely allow the Saints to clinch the NFC South (in front of the home fans). What? You think we'll clinch the division after 11 games? quote: Washington. The Redskins will have quit completely on Zorn by then. once again, this is rare

I'd put it at about 5%.

But I will say that they will finish 15-1, or 14-2. Going undefeated would only be made possible with this guy.

(Posted on 11/4/09 at 11:47 a.m. to ChoolzScoot) Not to be a pessimist, but going undefeated in a 16 game regular season and 3 games of playoffs not only depends upon having a dominant team, but it also requires some luck. Staying healthy, having the ball bounce your way, etc. I just don't see it happening, and to be honest, I think a lost somewhere in the season would help the Saints with the ultimate goal - win the Superbowl. If we get to say 13-0, the pressure to try to win out is unbelivable. Ask the Patriots or Indy a few years back. I'd rather be 14-2 on the regular season with home field advantage in the playoffs and win the Superbowl than try to worry about a perfect season. Like another poster said, winning the Superbowl would be a perfect season for me.

In fact, if we were 15-0 with a clinched home field i'd rather payton sit starters late second quarter. This post was edited on 11/4 at 12:12 p.m.
