If someone told me that we would be 4-2 and a half game ahead for the NFCS. With relative health (Coleman, Kalil, Kuechly all back next week.) I would take it and run. 

Exactly. I feel like most fans are down on us, I don’t get it.

Its been such an up and down season, there really is no dominant team at this point.  The consensus top team in each conference has changed on a weekly basis.  right now, any one of the four teams could win the NFC South.  

And so pretty much goes the entire history of this division. It's a crazy place, but here there be monsters!

Lol fk off. You’re still the saints. The saints won’t win the NFCS again until brees is retired and their rebuild is complete at earliest. His greed handicaps the team. 

The Saints won today, on the back of their running game and defense. This isn't the same Saints team of the last 3 years.

We shall see. Go ahead and keep that big head swelling up because it will pop sooner or later.

Don't let all this "Saints are all good syndrome" just because of some hiccup wins on teams with injuries and think they are good and unstoppable. The Saints offense is already showing it is just an average one anyway.

Please lol. I'm here when we suck talking a little trash. I'm here when we don't suck talking a little trash. It's been 4 years since my team has been above .500. 4. Years. I'm going to enjoy every moment of this week, because the NFL is a fickle whore. 

I'm still not sold that this team is anything more than a .500 ball club. What I do know is they're playing fast, disciplined defense for the first time since 2013. They have good depth at corner and a pass rush that is able to get there because the play of the back end is finally allowing it. That may all change next week, but they've allowed 37 points in 3 weeks. That, for a Saints fan, is cause for a damn parade.

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
