Just jump on the bandwagon?

I completely agree.
i understand where your coming from, but i like it this way. let us be the underdog. its so much better when we beat the teams that are favored over us. i LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE it
I think we get plenty of respect. A few "experts" still aren't on the bandwagon, but a ton of them are.
By the way, we have not beaten any teams with a winning record except for Atlanta. I was at that game, and it was a great victory over a hated rival, it was not as much a game as the Falcons being a deer in headlights, with the true test coming when we play them in Atlanta.
The only other team with a winning record we got the beat down.
The only two legit teams are Carolina, who we lost to, and Philly, who we almost lost to.
We have beaten:
Cleveland
Green Bay
Tampa (twice)
I don't blame any non-Saints fans who are reserving judgement till we beat more teams we are supposed to barely beat like Pittsburgh and Cincinnati and one we are not supposed to like the Giants.
We are ranked in the top 10 in all polls I see....that sounds about right to me.
Not saying any of the teams ranked ahead of us are better than us.
Just saying that we start beating more good teams and we get more respect.
Philly, Atlanta were quality wins
Carolina, Ravens were quality losses
Green Bay, Tampa Bay, and Cleveland will have top ten picks in next years draft.
So I really can't see how we are being disrespected at this point.
You are disrespected when all your wins are being viewed as fluke wins.
I really think we are being homers a bit when we say we are being disrespected.
And Philly has shown that they are not as dominant as we thought when we beat them.
i see your point.
Experts like dominance. Colts didn't get major props till they beat Denver and New England. All the top teams only have a couple of quality wins.
its our past haunting us.
i am sure it happened to New England back in 2001. They may have will been the Saints back then. Now they always get the benefit of the doubt.
