The Saints are a YOUNG TEAM that have an excellent vet QB in Drew Brees leading them.
This past season, they’ve had their fist taste of and experience in the playoffs.
They needed to beat a very good Chicago Bears team to go to the Super Bowl.
Yeah Saints fans. Let’s admit it. The Bears ARE a GOOD team.
They won’t beat Indy tho. I think you know how I feel about that.
But I digress.
I think the Saints are 1 WR & 2 pass rushers away and DEFINITELY some mental fortitude against the cold temperatures & snow.
That cold and snow they faced helped to beat them just as much as the Bears did.
What sayest thou?

All they need to do is play the way they did this year. If it weren't for the weather conditions they would have won in Chicago. I guess they just need a better regular season record than the Bears so they can play the Bears in New Orleans. I love the Saints but I'm a die hard Colts fan so I'm glad that the Saints didn't make it to the Superbowl this year. Not only would there be a possibility of the Colts loosing(they can easily beat the Bears) but I would feel bad if they beat the Saints. So next year hopefully belongs to New Orleans. As for this year....GO COLTS!!!!!

Well,I think the experience will help them next year.As a Bears fan,I was impressed by the job Drew Brees did.I dont think they need to make a lot of changes,but Reggie Bush has some maturing to do.A rookie doesnt taunt a veteran like Brian Urlacher the way Bush did.

well id say they are in dire need of a speed pass rushing DE and maybe a LB who can pass rush as well. On Offense either a short yardage WR or a decent pass catching TE should just about seal the deal. They are really close with this team. Assuming someday Duece and Reggie learn how to help on pass protection.

The defensive backfield is good but not good enough for the Super Bowl. They have the other wide reciever, if they can keep him healthy. That's the big difference in NFL teams from year to year, though. While we have suffered through all those bad years, most teams are in the pack, and it's the ones with the fewest key injuries that tend to do best.

I think that all the Saints need to do next season to make it to the Super Bowl is stay healthy. As long as they keep playing at the same level as they did this year they will easily make it.

the Saints need to get rid of Fred Thomas, Jason Craft, and add some new young talent to the secondary...we don't need another wide receiver, we just need to utilize Reggie as a wide receiver from time to time to wear out the opposing defenses, then run Deuce!!!

offensive line and a better secondary. the bears man handled their offensive line and i have seen to many big plays go through their defense. they will not get good picks during the draft,but maybe they can trade the weak link players for some high speed turbo charged crazy physco players doth not cometh from my bowels ,but frometh my heart i sayeth to thee
