They could level the dome and build a new stadium/dome in it's place. I don't think we need a new stadium though.

They finished second this year and there won't be a new stadium every year. After this, it's Atlanta and San Diego. Then the playing field is leveled again.

I agree. By no means do I want a new stadium, but if/when it becomes inevitable, that would be the ideal situation for me. As others have said in separate threads, the addition of surroundings like Champion's Square and Benson Towers have only added that much more uniqueness to the stadium's outside amenities.

The problem, of course, is where would the play for about two years (same situation as Minnesota). There's Tulane's brand new stadium, but with a 30,000 person capacity, it doesn't really work. There's LSU, but the scheduling conflicts with 8 Saints home games and 7/8 LSU home games could be a pain, along with the 90 or so mile difference.

Even with those questions, I still don't see a better situation that would include a whole different location for a new stadium.
