Yeah, I typed it.  The New Orleans Saints is the best team in the NFL.

Yes, I know the Packers have the best record in the league.  Yes, I know the Packers beat the Saints earlier in the regular season.  However, it’s not the record that makes a team.

Simply put, the Saints are playing the best football of any team in the league right now.  And while the Packers are extremely hard to beat in Lambeau Field in January, I like the Saints best against the Packers best.

And I would put money on it…
