would a patriots loss

I'm a '72 Dolphins fan, so of course I want to see them pop open the champagne bottle yet another year... plus, the look on the Patriots faces would be priceless.

However, the Patriots season has little bearing on my feeling regarding this Saints season.

I also disagree that this was the most disappointing season ever... going 12-4 in the regular season with a top ranked defense, and ending up one-and-done in the playoffs (yet again) is far, far more disappointing (see 1992).
