Not only should they be projected, it'd be disappointing if they didn't. Tampa and Carolina could potentially be good enough to topple them if things fall right, but NO is the class of the division at the moment by a decent margin. Don't forget about the Falcons, they're going to be tough this year with that stud Matt Ryan at QB. :ninja: But seriously, there's absolutely no reason why the Saints shouldn't win the South. That division is terrible. I'm not sure that secondary is improved enough to get them anywhere in the playoffs, though. don't hate on the falcons Despite being a Titan fan, I've always been somewhat partial to the Falcons as well (though, obviously, less so than to the Titans). So don't think I'm hating on them too much. :D I still think it was a terrible decision to draft Matt Ryan with Dorsey, et al still on the board, though. I totally agree with that OR we could have signed Kerney last year, drafted Okoye and then we would be free to take Ryan.
