Well, they already beat the Rams and Panthers. Play the Panthers again this week. I don't really see the case for Carolina and Atlanta. We'll see.

Really bad take.

What impressive wins do the Saints have?

The bottom of my list is admittedly somewhat fungible with the Saints - but I think finding seven better teams isn't beyond the pale.

They didn't beat the Rams, not sure why I said that. But yeah, I think they are better than Carolina and Atlanta, and definitely better than Seattle with their injuries. We'll find out if that's true over the next few weeks.

I think the Eagles, Vikings, Rams, and Saints are the clear class of the NFC, and everyone else is a tier below. New England and Pitt would be the only AFC teams in that group, IMO.

Lattimore needs to stay healthy for them to contend.

i don't think Seattle's better than them, but the Saints cannot beat them on the road. that stadium is kryptonite to them. i don't remember the last win they had @ Seattle.

true about lattimore. he was becoming the playmaker the defense needed. the presence, and the command respect. cam jordan's having a great year but lattimore is writing his legacy, whereas jordan is just going to be a solid player at best.

when you see a lackluster league like the NFL now, throw "quality wins" out the window. The only team that fits that narrative is Minnesota, and I just don't believe they're made to make a Super Bowl run with their QB. granted, there have been QB's that have rode great defenses to championships in the past. But i don't think they had to get through teams like the Eagles.

The Saints probably wouldn't get a bye, and that's going to be their ultimate undoing. they're not going to get to a SB on the road.

Saints and Vikings reinforced this today. Tonight’s game should be good.

lattimore has to be back on the field for this team to have a chance at the eagles, vikings or rams again. he just secures the defense, and is the spark they need. cam jordan's had a great season, but he can sometimes disappear too. lattimore can cover really well, and that counts for a lot.

i'm astounded by the ground game. kamara just keeps impressing and i have never seen ingram have this much impact on the team.

of course, the guy's contract is set up to where he could get a big payday at the end of the season as a free agent. just when i am starting to really love the guy, he'll probably leave.
