The New Orleans Saints were the feel good story of the 2007 season. After having been the losers of the NFL for many years, the team suddenly found itself in the heat of a Super Bowl race in 2007, thanks in large part to Drew Brees, Reggie Bush, and Deuce McAllister.
QB Drew Brees is playing the best he has ever played and will be a favorite for MVP once the season is over. The 09' season should be a good one for the Saints franchise overall, many expect the Saints to play late in January.
Drew Brees has established himself as one of the best quarterbacks in the league - having all the offensive threats such as WR Marques Colston, RB Mike Bell, BB Reggie Bush, and WR Jeremy Shockey. All the pieces are in place for the Saints to win many games this season.
The offense ranks in the top 10 in every major statistical category and should continue to do so all season long. The Saints defense isn't bad either; they are holding opponents to around 20 point per game -- averaging much more then that on offense.
The Saints schedule looks a lot easier then it did in the start of the year, their division isn't as strong as it was in 08'. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are in a rebuilding process and the Carolina Panther can't seem to get anything together.
The only challenge in the division should come from the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons are a good team with a future MVP in Matt Ryan, the Falcons offense may not be able to keep up with the Saints.
New Orleans has struggled financially the last few years and a good Saints football team is what the New Orleans community needs. Sports have been a great way to help bring communities together during tough times.
The Saints had a disappointing loss to the Bears in the 06' NFC Championship game in freezing weather. Let's hope for the Saints sake they receive home field advantage all through out.
