The Saints have to play the AFC and NFC East and it should be  interesting  apically as the New Orleans Saints welcome New England to the  Superdome were the " Dynasty" got started. The Saints had injury's with there start people last two years really but from that people have stepped up Lance Moore, Sederick Ellis, and many others.
The Saints have the offense not doubt but the one thing holding the Saints back from a  Super Bowl XLIV  appearance is there defense. The saints will have to draft defense players to get the defense depth. The offseason will be good, as the Saints can sign some free agents:

The Saints have a lot of key players to choose from this off season and it could get   interesting for the Saints in 2009. The Saints will get there secondary together so they can stop the "BIG PLAY."
The Saints could easily go 13-3 in 2009 and there is a good  possibility. This year they were a good kicker and few stops from being 12-4 this season in 2008.
The  Saints will re-group and get into the playoffs and make a run at the  Super Bowl XLIV, and I think the matchup I want to see is Drew Brees and the Saints vs. the New England Patriots. Next season should be really  interesting, I would have to say.
