2) Will the New Orleans Saints repeat as Super Bowl champs?

Very recent history says no. The Saints were the fifth different team to win it all in the past six years. Then again, the Saints did seem to improve in the offseason, particularly on the defensive side with the addition of a first-round draft pick, Florida State CB Patrick Robinson, and free agent DL Alex Brown and Jimmy Wilkerson. The Saints already have one of the best offenses in football with no real questions other than who will be Drew Brees' backup at quarterback. And let's face it: If Brees goes down, the Saints are in trouble anyway. This isn't to say New Orleans will become the first team to repeat since the New England Patriots of the 2003-04 seasons, but they seemed as poised any team since them to do so.
