some of you are delusional. this year's defense was very good. certainly good enough to win a bowl.

Maybe with a healthy Kwon. Saints specifically brought him in to help cover TEs and RBs out of the backfield (which has been their kryptonite). You saw what Fournette did with Anzalone trying to cover him 🙄. Think it was the most that Brady targeted a RB all year, and with good reason.

Even so, the defense wasn't elite enough to carry the ghost of Brees' arm. This was 3 years in a row that the opposing defense just packed the box, manhandled the WRs at the line, sent tons of pressure, and took all the dink and dunk stuff away. They all dared Brees to beat them deep, and he couldn't do it.

It’s really hard to win multiple Super Bowls

They’ve been to the same number of Super Bowls in 15 years as Chicago, Arizona, Green Bay, Carolina, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and LA, and have been to fewer than New York, San Francisco, and Seattle. Their post season accomplishments are only slightly above average with a first ballot HoF QB and head coach often regarded as one of the best.

Early years? Payton and the front office for fielding such terribad defenses. 

Last 4 years? Brees and not being able to stretch the field. 

Karma years? All of the above. I think the Saints sold their souls for that Super Bowl win lol. How else could 1 team be responsible for so many playoff loss memes over a 10 year stretch?? 

I'm not sure which was worse. Watching the Saints be the Aints and never amount to anything, or watching heart breaking playoff loss after playoff loss.
