Prediction Poll: Will the Aints Win Their 3rd Consecutive Division Title?

[KillaCamNewton]

Peyton Manning went from having the best season as a QB ever to throwing 9 Tds and 17 INTs in a 2 year span. When people hit the wall they hit it hard and fast. Only a matter of time before its Brees’s turn

That seems to be a Manning family tradition and he was 38 when that wall finally came.

Brady hasn't broken down somehow either. I am definitely not implying that he can play forever but it does seem to be a trend that these elite QB's seem to be able to play into their later years without dramatic drop offs in play. I think the bigger factor will end up being how long he wants to continue doing this. He's expressed that he could play into his mid-40's and also that he could retire soon at different times. I personally wouldn't bet we see him past the 2020 season if he does or doesn't win a title.

Brees & the Ain'ts will start off red hot until mid-season, then Brees's arm will begin to falter & fail.

Exactly. As long as Cam is healthy, this team can take the South.

Wish this was a public poll so I knew who the saints fans are.

Mhm exactly.

We need to see a lot of this but with one of ours hitting this hard to help knock Aints out of any playoff, NFCCG, and SB contention to retake the South again.

Age waits for no man and late in the 2018 season Drew Brees was ordinary, at best. While I think the Saints defense is improved, I am not convinced that it is good enough to overcome an "ordinary" Drew Brees. Therefore, I predict that the Saints do not win the division.

It is hard to know whether the Panthers can grab the division given the unknown status of Cam's throwing shoulder.

[Davidson Deac II]

Brees looked average the last half of the past season, but the Aint's were still good.  If their defense contines to improve, they have a shot at the big game.  If not, who knows.  Right now, I would say they probably won't win the division, but at this point, it is anyone's guess.

Depends on Cam, obviously. If he returns 100% and can play all year our offense will be scary good.

Also depends on if we get any worthwhile production from our rookies. Little has to play well, as do the guys on defense. Ron calling the plays late last year paid off, only gave up around 18 a game.

My AA sponsor suggests I don't discuss this topic.

[KillaCamNewton]

We dont have a Suh and Donald but Ron can call a defense at the same level Wade Phillips can and it really looked like the Rams gave us the blueprint for playing the Saints going forward. Crowd the LOS, sell out against the run, and make Brees beat you from deep, it turned out he doesnt have the arm to do that anymore. When you arent a threat to bomb it 50 yards down the field that field starts getting smaller and smaller

[RumHam]

Eh the failcons are due to sail again. We depend on cams health and we will know early before throwing grier out there. However, with the uproar, the saints will probably win the super bowl. Then again, brady.
