Feels like those 13-3 seasons were forever ago

Sure it’s fun to whine now, but as an old head, I certainly appreciate that we had one of the winningest teams for two decades

The Payton/Brees era was a wonderful thing......

But as wonderful as it was those 7-9 years still haunt me a bit

The Saints under Loomis have been very good at not stinking. If 7-9 is the worst you get then it follows you'll be in the top 7 out of 32.

But it seems to show that we're trying hard to be safe and mediocre instead of gambling for extreme success. Many teams that have had more playoff success than us are behind us in this list because they gambled and won big sometimes and lost sometimes.

This guy likes what you’re saying!

And how many wins would we have in that time period if goodell hadn't used the Saints as the NFL's CTE whipping boy? The year of lost coaching, the stolen draft picks?

I will forever harbor ill will in my heart for Mike Cerullo and Roger Goodell. Douche weasels.

There are only 2 teams with more championships behind the Saints.
Tampa and the NY Giants.
And both have had a decade of losing.

True, but personally, I feel like we left too much meat on the bone by our own doing. The Minny Miracle. Beastquake. The let down in in SF. The other elimination against Minny. We had chances to win it all. The disgusting “no call” goes without saying (not by our own doing). With all things considered, it was a great run. As a fan, it kinda makes you wonder when you will get to experience that again

Who you trying to fool? The rest of you is old too.

and also for original fans who had to watch years of doom and gloom.

Loomis is a terrible GM. Top 10 terrible, and yet no one has faith in his choice of DA as the future. Very unfortunate.

Yep. 5 years ang counting is an eternity in the NFL.

The 2020 12-4 record inflates the Saints overall win ranking for the period in the OP, but the ranking in this window can't be denied.

In a broader scope one play doesn't win or lose a game, but in a vacuum and game situational football it's hard to deny it's impact on the outcome.

It seems like the Saints have been running on a flat tire since the moment Mark Ingram ducked out of bounds against TB one yard short of sealing a playoff win.
