The New Orleans Saints are poised for a lengthy run of contention

FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. — Here’s a scary thought for the rest of the NFL:

What if the New Orleans Saints aren’t one-year wonders?

What if they’re here for a while?

What if they’re — dare I say it — an emerging dynasty?

It might sound crazy. After all, the Saints had to wait 43 years to win their first world title.

But laugh not.

The Saints are poised for a lengthy run of contention.

Living on the edge pays off for Saints

By Michael Silver

MIAMI – Shortly before the start of the third quarter of Super Bowl XLIV, while the 74,059 fans at Sun Life Stadium were rocking out to the raucous climax of The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again,” New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton put on a crowd-pleasing performance in the visitors’ locker room.

“Listen, we’re gonna run ‘Ambush’ to start the second half,” Payton told his players, referring to an onside-kick call the team had practiced repeatedly in the two weeks leading up to Sunday’s showdown with the Indianapolis Colts. “We’re playing this game to win it. We’ve got all the bullets; we might as well use ‘em. So you’d better get on that damn ball and make me look good.”

The Saints howled their approval, then headed back onto the field with a bounce in their step. Trailing by four points against the seemingly indomitable Peyton Manning(notes), New Orleans would be fueled by the audacity of hope as it had all season.

Today, the Saints and the adoring Who Dat Nation are like lovers just back from the honeymoon, still glowing with the memories, ready to spend the next months looking at the snap shots, watching the videos, convinced their special time will never end.

“Here’s the great thing about New Orleans,” Letterman said. “There was going to be a party for your team whether you won or lost. Isn’t that great?”

“That’s one of the things you love about New Orleans,” Brees said. “We know how to throw a party.”

Saints are ‘the world’s team’

MIAMI

It’s become clear, over the last five or six months, that the New Orleans Saints struck a perfect balance when Sean Payton put his defense in the hands of Gregg Williams, the wily, outspoken defensive coordinator who walks the walk and definitely likes to talk the talk.

So when the Saints had completed their mission on Sunday night at Sun Life Stadium, when they scored a resounding 31-17 victory over the favored Indianapolis Colts in Super Bowl XLIV, the media throng around Williams’ podium in the interview area easily exceeded Payton’s.

That’s OK with Payton, who gave up about $250,000 of his own annual salary to lure Williams, the longtime defensive coordinator, from the Jacksonville Jaguars. Payton had seen what Williams could do, not only strategically but in the locker room. Williams likes to challenge his players. Williams likes to challenge himself.

Williams likes to push the envelope.
