.... but... but.... the media hates the saints. They never get any love. Roger Goodell, refs, cheat, blah, blah.
See. The media has no agenda against the Saints. They're a good team and in weeks prior to this one, most people just thought other teams were slightly better (and some people probably still do).

Got a little too excited about a possible resurgence in last week's rankings. Shouldn't have given them that much credit, since it was just the Buccaneers they beat

There's really no excuse for thinking the Saints aren't the best.

So a #1 power ranking on Yahoo proves everything is fine.
Rabbit had a thread yesterday showing screenshots from around the league. Only ESPN had a headline for NOLA.
I dont think its some big conspiracy, but there is an inherent Media Bias towards big market teams. The advertising dollars make the NFL happy when big market teams are successful. Its still a business.

I actually agree that there is no bias against the Saints. I do believe there is a preference for large market teams though, which is quite understandable.
Does not mean that we have to like it.
