| The Saints are one of only five teams that have | | | | are expansion teams and have not been in the |
| never been to the Super Bowl the teams are as | | | | NFL for even fifteen years. The Saints however |
| follows. | | | | have been an NFL team since 1967. So why |
| - Detroit Lions (Won 4 NFL championships and | | | | haven't they ever been to the Super Bowl? Quite |
| went to the NFC Championship in 1991) | | | | frankly it is because they have never been good |
| - Cleveland Browns (Won 4 of 6 NFL | | | | enough. Some say it has been because of a |
| championship appearances and went to 3 AFC | | | | curse, others say because of the fact that they |
| championships 1986, 1987, and 1989) | | | | have never had all the right players at the same |
| - Jacksonville Jaguars (Expansion team and went | | | | time, but I say that they have just never had a |
| to 2 AFC Championships in 1996 and 1999) | | | | good enough team. |
| - Houston Texans (expansion team, and never | | | | Now that the Saints has what is considered to be |
| made the playoffs) | | | | the best roster in the team's long history what will |
| - New Orleans Saints (Went to 1 NFC | | | | happen now? What will the excuse be if they do |
| Championship in 2006) | | | | not make it to a Super Bowl this year? Honestly |
| This is pretty bad especially when you consider | | | | there will be no excuse, it is now or never for the |
| the fact that two of the above mentioned teams | | | | Saints so it had better be now! |
