Realistically: Will We Have the Desire to Repeat?

Swimmer said

But the distractions are huge for SB winners. A lot of players want to see their payday. And the total commitment it takes on winning it all is huge.

Do you think we really have a good shot at repeating this year?

It's really, really hard to repeat as Super Bowl champs for one reason: it's really, really hard to become Super Bowl champs. Most of the time it comes down to just a few plays. The margin for error is so small that one bad break, one call, one strange bounce can mean you're season's over.

Don't worry about "distractions" or "desire" for the upcoming season. Worry about key injuries, bad calls, or a few plays where the team doesn't execute. That's what will keep the Saints from repeating.
