The only thing more difficult than winning a Super Bowl is defending one.
quote:
Only 11 Super Bowl champs were able to reach the Super Bowl the next season. Yet 13 of them failed to make the playoffs at all. That includes four of the past eight (the Steelers twice, Buccaneers and Patriots).
quote:
If that weren't enough, consider this: No NFC team has played in consecutive Super Bowls since the Packers went in 1997 and 1998.
quote:
So the Saints won't just have to beat the Falcons, Bucs and Panthers this season. They'll have to beat history.
Then you have all the Madden curse shite with Drew

Sounds alot like " No team has ever lost the last three games of the season then won the Super Bowl" or "The QB featured on the cover of SI before the Super Bowl always loses" Blah Blah Blah
It might be an up hill battle, but thats what this team is build for,Cant wait to start proving them all wrong again!!!

Steelers were handed the Seattle/Pittsburg superbowl (that was a travesty and I didn't care who won that game)
Steelers also had a miracle catch to win their last superbowl
Steelers and Bucs had lights out defenses and that type of play lends itself to no wiggle room!
Fact is the Saints were dominate last year, and thats why I believe the only way we don't make the playoffs is an injury to _____. (not gonna type it) IE patriots missing the playoffs.
Our defense should be better and outside of the curse
our offense will dominate for the 4th year in a row! Not predicting a superbowl victory again, but we will make the playoffs and have another very good year!

First time ever we can say the trends and curses to overcome are less than the previous year. The organizational history, to 43 years of coming up short, to a stadium on top of a cemetery were a bigger mountains than any of those IMO.

It should be noted that there is a stronger correlation with offensive success from year to year than there is for defensive success.
