Are the 2013 7-2 Saints Better than 2011 Saints Playoff Team vs. 49ers?
Are the 2013 7-2 Saints Better than 2011 Saints Playoff Team vs. 49ers?
I'll just answer the original question posed:
Offense: No (at least not yet)
Defense: Yes
Special Teams: No
Coaching: Yes
Regardless how many more Lombardis our boys get in the future, 2011 will always be the one that got away.
I'll take the last bold first:
2011
WAS the one that got away!!!!! We beat the Niners, and NOBODY comes even close to beatin us,
EXCEPT......
Roger Goodell, who would go on to strip the Saints of their 2nd SB victory, and award the SB to the Pats!
:jpshakehead:
As for this team vs. the '11 team, the jury
is still out on the O. After 9 games in 2011, we were 6-3. After 9 games this year, we're 7-2. It was the last 6 games of the season when the 2011 Saints O went to a whole nother level and averaged nearly 40 ppg. IMO, our next 7 games this year are tougher than the last 7 games the '11 team had, starting with a very good Niners team on Sunday.
So as for which O is better, I guess we'll just have to wait n see how the rest of this season plays out.
But I just wanna win it ALL, no matter what!!!
