"I feel like we as a team do have a valid chance of competing in the playoffs again. Although we are a very different team than the Saints, their playoff success this year should inspire teams like us to prove the rest of the league wrong. I felt like this Super Bowl game proved a lot of naysayers of the running game wrong. As demonstrated by Joseph Addai, Reggie Bush and Piere Thomas, there is no way to win a championship on passing alone. I think our rebuilt offense is a good fit for the modern day playoff picture. If we can add more play-action and long downfield passes into our game plan, and with a more experienced offenisive line and a strong defense, I think we will have a legitimate shot at winning the AFC North once again and maybe even go all the way to the Super Bowl."
