The New Orleans Saints started out the season with all guns blazing. They have the potential to have the greatest offense the league has seen in the last 30 years which includes the 2007 New England Patriots team that set many NFL scoring records.

Drew Brees is playing like a MVP candidate and completing nearly 70% of his pass attempts, which is well above average. If he keeps this up, no defense can completely shut him down.

The Saints have weapons all round the field from RB Reggie Bush, WR Marques Colston, WR Jeremy Shockey, WR Devery Henderson, and RB Mike Bell. With such a potent offense the Saints can outscore anyone in the league -which means they are never out of the game no matter what the score is.

While their offense was effective, their defensive game was in shambles and something was missing from the team that had so powerfully established itself during the 2007 season.

The Saints schedule looks a lot easier then it did in the start of the year, their division isn’t as strong as it was in 08′. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are in a rebuilding process and the Carolina Panther can’t seem to get anything together.

Their week 2 match-up was somewhat tougher. Facing the Philadelphia Eagles, a team that had destroyed the Carolina Panthers in week 1, the team would be forced to play its best football if it wanted a chance of winning.

The Saints won this game 48-22. While the absence of Donovan McNabb played a part in the ease in which the Saints won, the Philadelphia Eagles defense looked nothing like its week 1 self. The Saints were just that good on offense once again.

The Saints had a disappointing loss to the Bears in the 06′ NFC Championship game in freezing weather. Let’s hope for the Saints sake they receive home field advantage all through out.
