Will the Saints go marching in to perfection?

Brees Has Saints On Undefeated March

Brees Has Saints On Undefeated March

The Saints pulled off a remarkable victory over the Washington Redskins  yesterday to keep their hopes alive for a perfect season. They trailed the entire game and by ten in the fourth quarter. They tied the game and eventually won it in overtime. They had no business winning the game, but you have to be lucky to be 12-0 at this stage in the NFL season. One question comes to mind; Can they win their next four games and be perfect.

Their next game is at Atlanta. Atlanta has injuries to Matt Ryan and Michael Turner; so they will be hard pressed to beat a good and fortunate team like the Saints. From there it is Dallas at home. The home cookin’ will be something to see as they go for 14-0 against  America’s team on a Saturday night. It they win that one, they have Tampa Bay at home and that should produce another victory that could put them one victory from perfection. Their last game is at Carolina. This is a game that intrigues me to say the least. How much will the Saints have left in their tank if they are still unbeaten?

I think the Saints have a better than average shot to pull off a undefeated season. They have a great quarterback in Drew Brees and seem to have lady luck on their side. It would make for a great story in the land of Mardi Gras. Imagine the partying that will go on in the Big Easy if the Saints pull off a perfect season. The Miami Dolphins could have company in that respect. It makes the NFL season that much more interesting down the stretch.
