If, And, But: The New Orleans Saints Will Be in the Playoffs in 2013

It was seemingly over before it even began.

That's how some viewed the New Orleans Saints' 2012 season. A season-long suspension for head coach Sean Payton was the lowlight of numerous punishments for coaches, executives and players that casted a pall over the team's attempt to repeat as NFC South champions.

When it was all said and done, seven wins in their final 12 games wasn't enough to offset a 0-4 start. The Saints finished 7-9 and out of the playoffs for the first time since 2008.

But Payton is back and so are high expectations for a team that remains one of the most exciting in the league.

And the New Orleans Saints will be in the playoffs for the fourth time in five seasons…

That article is interesting, but terribly indecisive. The synopsis: "either they will or they wont".

We need balance on offense.

I would not trade Ivory because we need playmakers and he is one. If I knew that the player we would get for him would be a difference maker, I might think differently.

I believe the defense will be better under Ryan and I believe Payton will have a chip on his shoulder all season.

WHODAT!!!!

I picked long time back , that they would be winners of the NFC game! So says ST Ronaldo!
We don't need a top 7 Defense, just one that will slow the other team down some.
