The Saints are not quite an elite team tonight.

I would still take Da Saints to meet MN in the NFC Championship. And if it is in N.O. then I will have to bet against my Purple People Eaters

13 - 1 and they are not an elite team???

^ Dude,,,

They've should've lost the two revioius games amd be 11-3...

They suck...

GO DALLAS !!!

wheel,

revious = previous

too much booze

sorry..

Dallas is the best 9 - 5 team in the NFL!

Regardless of how many close games teams should have won or lost, the main thing is the final score ...

My most hated team won tonight, and the Saints are still 13-1 ...

i think its amazing that at the end, everything that could've happen and did at the beginning, that saints still had a chance at the end. 2 minutes with the ball in brees' hands? I thought for sure at that moment we were going to win. I'm just at a loss at how poorly our o-line played tonight.

donutboy...lest you forget, one near perfect season an elite team does not make.

an elite team (49rs of the 80s, Cowboys of the 90s and even the curent Colts) has consistency not 7-9 one year and Superbowl possibilities the next. An elite team can and will win 10+ games for multiple seasons in a row.

I am disappointed the Saints lost, but I still believe they are capable of winning 5 more games this season.

elite team list and you left off the dolphins unbeaten season and superbowl champs?

That they can play a pretty good defense on the road when their backs are against the wall.

critter I didn't speak to any teams pre 80's because I really was to young to appreciate what was going on.

But I say a single season does not make an elite team, performing year in and year out is what IMO shows that a team is truly one of the best

I luv waffles.....

ANd THE BOYS!!!!!!!!

I think The Vikes are very beatable.All of a sudden they can't block and offense can't move the ball. NO still has a bad ass offense, but their defense is very beatable. I think Dallas may very well be a big player in the playoffs this season.
