Where’s the Payton and Brees in this scenario? Allen and Dalton? The bucs won the NFC south last year, was that a step in the right direction for them?

It’s just not as simple as winning the division, this division in particular. If you win any of the other 7 divisions, I’d agree. But this division isn’t a litmus test for success. Somebody had to win it last year, but no one deserved to.
Payton and Brees didn’t turn into “Payton and Brees” until 2009.
That period before the Super Bowl only yielded a 25-23 record then they won the championship and became the HOFers you see today.
But it started with a ‘06 division title run.
