This team needs a nickname

All great teams of the past have had great nicknames, such as " Monsters of the Midway" or "Purple People Eaters", or "Greatest Show on Turf",or even "The Dome Patrol". Each one of these teams have had something that made it unique. What makes this team unique, in my opinion, is that any player on the team could be the star of the week. Last game, seven touchdowns by seven different players. The two games prior were won basically by the defense. One commentator said that the Saints were playing "left handed", when our opponents take away our strengths, we find a new way to win. I like that analysis. Our opponents are having trouble "game plannning" against a team that if different every week. It's a good feeling to know that we can win even when Drew doesn't throw a single touchdown, or when one of our running backs in out, or when one of our receivers is double covered.
So, what would be a good nickname for the best Saints team ever? That's your homework. I'll take the best 10 and make a poll for an official vote.

Naturally, you must suspect me to attack with Capa Ferro
…but I find that playing in black and gold cancels out Capa Ferro. And I know something you do not know. I am not left-handed…

Dome Patrol Deux
is my fantasy team’s name. It doesn’t have to be just the LBs it can be the whole team…
Along that line
but not really a nickname, I keep thinking instead of the “Who Dats”, we’re the “Yeah Buts” according to the media. Every freaking week, win after win, “yeah but…(insert excuse here)” It would be funny if it wasn’t so frustrating.

Someone on BigBlueView put up a poll
asking how many points the refs cost them. Values ranged from 10-24.
Unfortunately, they did not include an option for costing the Saints 14 points (Pierre’s TD and Shaper’s pick six).
Yeah, but, but… the refs suck. Yeah, but the Saints wore white jerseys, which is always the Giants road jerseys. Even the Jets fans weren’t as sore losers as that.
I just finished watching the game again
and the Giants did get jobbed on a few plays. Harper should have been called for interference, and I didn’t see any holding at all on that touchdown throw to Brandon Jacobs. Figure 4 points lost right there, and figure maybe another 3 if they gave the Giants the interference call. That’s another touchdown. Then figure that if the score was already 48-27 when Carr came in, that the Saints wouldn’t have played such loose defense, and it comes out the same as before.
Could, woulda, shoulda. Boy, do I remember what that feels like.
Super Bowl 44: "If you play in this league and it's not your goal, there's something wrong with you." -- Marques Colston
No there was no holding. You are quite correct about that. What you neglect to mention was there were two other penalties they could have called instead and failed to call. They could have called illegal lineman downfield. And they could have called illegal block in the back. Actually there was likely a third option as I’m pretty sure I saw tripping as well. (Yes I have Game Rewind too, and I watched that play again… multiple times.) So I’m not sweating that one, the play was dead regardless of how it happened. It would have been nice for them to have called an accurate penalty instead, but the TD was still bogus crap anyway.
The failure to call interference on Harper was pretty bad call, but there’s no guarantee they would have gotten points out of it. And there were a few other bad calls that didn’t go their way as well.
But there were ALSO bad calls that didn’t go our way as well. I’ve watched games of 11-on-17 before. This was not one of them. There were mistakes by the officials. Everybody with a brain wishes there weren’t, but it’s a fact of life that there always will be. I just prefer to avoid having them all work out to help a single team (even mine, as it cheapens the victory). Even if they are unintentional, and we all know full well that the odds they are not so are extremely microscopic. And in this game, the refs made a few mistakes but they did not all help the same team. Nor was there even a hint of making blatantly horrible calls “the other way” in an effort to “make up” for a bad one earlier. And since that’s about as close to perfection as we’re likely to get in the real world, I’ll take it.
To give you an example, last year in England there were an outright ton of horrible calls. Ticky tack PI calls out the wazoo, and plenty of other phantom calls as well. But they went against both teams fairly evenly so far as I could tell. So that was just poor officiating. But in the Atlanta away game the refs were beyond horrible, and just about everything they called was on us when Atlanta was guilty of more and worse and not called on it. That was 11-17. If the Giants fans foolish enough to think the refs gave this game to us have the stomach for reality, I dare them to go watch that game and see what I mean. They will realize then that this game was in no way remotely related to it.
Of course, I know full well that most of those Giants fans will say I’m biased and ignoring facts. And they would be part right… but only about the first part. But so are they, and it is they and only they who are guilty of the second part.

Great idea! rec'ed it!
I’ve thought about this some over the past few weeks but haven’t come up with anything. I was thinking at one time it would be cool for someone to write new lyrics and record a version of Lynard Skynard’s “They Call Me the Breeze.” Change it to “They Call Him Drew Brees.” Of course the next line would have to be something like, “he keeps throwing down the field” or something similar.
Whatever it is, it seems like it should be something like Earth, Wind, and Fire to describe the RB crew, but that one wouldn’t be original. How about “Crime and Punishment” as in it’s a crime our offense is sooooo good and with the punishment coming from the GWD (Gregg Williams defense). Nahhhh, it should be something New Orleans related.
I don’t know. So far, I’ve got nothing.

Being a steelers fan we have had some great team nicknames
the Steel Curtain, the Super Steelers, Blitzburgh, but we haven’t given the new team a great nickname yet. But for the Saints was thinking Bourbon Street Saviors
"Polamalu’s lineage can be traced through several roots. Chuck Norris mated with an Amazon Queen, and on the other side, Tony Hawk mated with Mother Nature. The two children of these spawned and fused in a tantric love session to create Troy Polamalu. The mother however died as he tore through the birth canal with a spin move."

We should nickname our WRs the Noids, so opposing DBs would avoid them.

telling you Bourbon Street Saviors
from a steelers fan that could be the new Steel Curtain in terms of nicknames that refuse to go away
"Polamalu’s lineage can be traced through several roots. Chuck Norris mated with an Amazon Queen, and on the other side, Tony Hawk mated with Mother Nature. The two children of these spawned and fused in a tantric love session to create Troy Polamalu. The mother however died as he tore through the birth canal with a spin move."
Mechem on the roots of Troy Polamalu
Defensive nicknames
have kind of gone by the wayside since the 1970s. Both the 1985 Bears and 2000 Ravens, two of the most dominant defenses in the history of the game, didn’t have one.
"Paralyze resistance with persistence" -Woody Hayes
85 bears didn't need they just brought back Monster's of the Midway
true the ravens didn’t have a nick name but I quess Ray didn’t think of one. Bourbon Street Saviors is good you have to admit

sounds like a bunch of busybody old women trying to rescue drunks. It doesn’t sound at all like a badass bunch of football players. “Steel Curtain” does. “Monsters of the Midway” does.

A Streetcar Named My Foot in Your Ass
will definitely get people’s attention.
aww, screw it. Let’s just call them 9-11. #9 for for Brees, 11 guys that can all score TDs, and the phone call your team will need to make when your defensive coordinator has a heart attack.
Oh yeah, and they kicked the shit out of New York. (too much?)
i'm feeling 911
but I think it could be extended to the defense as well good Offense nickname but the defesne can play as well as the offense can it’s not the greatest show on turf and the defense I don’t know who played on that defense. you need a team nickname

Okay, this is a little subtle, but bear with me.
“53.”
Why? Because of Drew’s “This. Is. New Orleans!” pregame chant. Comes from “300,” right? 300 Spartans, 53 Saints.

I've got two, Category 5 and Bayou Bullies
I think Category 5 is good. It’s the strength of a hurricane that has led to the strength of our city’s people and team. It suits us all.
And Bayou Bullies for obvious reasons. Winning by two touchdowns or more every week kind of qualifies as pushing people around imo.
The people who say, "Winning isn't everything," don't win very often.
If stupidity is a cancer, you're terminal.
When you die and go to hell, you come back as a Jets fan.
Keeping with the hurricane category theme...
…how about Force 11 (Force 10 is the maximum gale force rating)
Even comes with a theme song:
