What is the current outlook for our saints in the media. Why are they so down on us. It's not just PFF, but others like CBS sports say the same thing.
With all the changes - most for the better - as well as the players coming back from injury, we should be much better than last year. We have a viable QB, and also did very well in the draft. We upgraded @:
WR
RB
DT
TE
Everyone we lost were all lesser players than what we replaced them with. Last year, we should have won 10 games easily. Injuries killed us. Not to mention bad coaching. Or @ least tentative coaching.
We are clearly a much improved team this year. Every team in the NFL has question marks. That's the nature of the beast in today's NFL. Not even KC is loaded @ every position group.
So, why do they diss the saints so badly. They even graded us @ 24 in our moves in the off-season. I don't get it. Are they that blind. Most don't even have us in the top 10, yet they project us as division winner, which means a home playoff game.
I think that the media can't get past the perception of the old saints that were always the laughing stock of the NFL. Yet, we won a Superbowl, and are almost every year in contention.
So, what will it take to finally shed this perception. Heck, the cowpukes haven't won much since Jimmy Johnson left in the 90's, yet the media still loves them.
I just don't get it.
