No. The Saints got lucky. The Viking, had they not lost their asses and started turning the ball over, would have beat the Saints in 09. However, they didn't. And the Seahawks didn't win the Super Bowl...not the best team.

However, they are the best team in the NFC and will probably be one of the better teams in this coming season.

I bet he goes back to the TE designation to avoid having the LOB cover him in training camp.

Yes, New England is this years champs, but over the past couple of seasons, I'd argue for Seattle, as much as it hurts, to be the best team in the NFL.



A) We won the Superbowl that year

B) The Patriots are the best team, the won it

C) frick Seattle

We will have to wait and see who the best team will be. Seattle loses multiple starters every year and are now on their third season in a row without a draft pick in the first round. They will also have to sign Wilson to a huge contract.
They are a great organization but at some point the FA attrition and having to nail every draft catches up to you.
Except for the Patriots. They are magicians. And have Tom Brady

Now he gets to go to the team that bitch slapped him around and rendered him irrelevant the 2 times they played him

I'd be grinning too if I were him

I would be happy if I was Graham. He wont have to play against the team that has shut him down most plus maybe they will toughen him up.
Bad thought, red hair dreads !

The odds of them making it to 3 straight Superbowls is not that high. I believe Gb was better than them last year, and I don't think they got better this year. Yea they signed one of the best tight ends. HIs stats will be no where near what they were here because they aren't that type of team. They also have a very weak O-line, even according to Seahawk fans. I think they get in the playoffs, but won't be as good as the last 2 seasons. It's extremely hard to sustain things enough to go to 3 straight Superbowls.

You can argue that they are one not dumb play call from repeating as champs. So I think the statement can still stand.


You can also argue that the tipped ball to a guy on his back to get them down the field to be in position to even have that last play to be 100% luck.

He better learn how to fly his plane in bad weather.

Wish him the best and appreciate what he did for the Saints, except for his butt hurt last season.

Defending NFC champs is what still stands.
Pats got the hardware.

Yep... plus I remember Payton talking about what a difference not having those final five weeks that are spent prepping for and playing playoff games to rest and evaluate your team can make, especially when it happens several years in a row.

Jimmy Graham's soft arse can't play in the NFC West. Dude is going to get slaughtered.

Graham says he "owes a lot to New Orleans'' but says he's "highly motivated'' to join a team whose "complete focus'' is winning.


Either Jimmy's enjoying throwing the Saints under the bus or he's really trying to play nice to the guys who called him...er, less than optimal last season.

Maybe there would of been more focus had you not been a whiney little bitch even after you got paid...


"but im a wa wa wa wide receiver" and when seattle puts you there because you cant block you will see that you are not.

He said they are the best team in football. Which means the current. That argument can definitely be made for them and a few other teams. He didnt say he was glad to be going to the best team last year
