There's no 'could' about it. It would have had an impact for sure. We'll never know for sure, but it's hard to imagine that we wouldn't have been the division champs last season if our key players hadn't started dropping like flies after our first two big victories. Frankly there's no way that Dennis Allen isn't still our head coach if it were not for all the crippling injuries the team sustained in 2024. I'm not saying the Saints would have contended for the NFC Championship or the Superbowl, but they would definitely have had a winning season and maybe more.
