Heath's Random Thoughts

So, as everyone knows, the New Orleans Saints had a "Cinderella" year last year, going all the way to the NFC Championship game only a year after winning only three games. In one off-season, this organization was able to clean out the bad characters on the team, bring in some strong talent and leadership, hire arguably the most dynamic new head coach in the league and give a down trodden city a spark of hope. The Saints were truly a feel good story coming out of nowhere last season to be come the darlings of the NFL. This year it will be interesting to see how much of that love and good will, will still be flowing as the Saints enter the year as one of the favorites to win it all. My guess is that there will still be some folks that will be pulling for them, but most teams and fans will be starting to root against them, because now they have proven themselves as a great team that can win on any given Sunday. Yes, this year will be tougher as teams now know to bring their "A" game against this team. The 2007-08 scheduled just came out and I am predicting that the Saints pull off a 12 win season and continue to lead the league in offensive statistics. Next up the NFL draft. I am thinking they will need to draft a stud cornerback, but we will see what is available when their turns comes around at the end of the first round. Gueax Saints!
