The New Orleans Saints were 13-3 last season and have continued to, on a yearly basis, do a few things better than any other franchise in the NFL.

Somehow, someway the New Orleans Saints improved this offseason. While a few teams in the NFC South decreased the margin between themselves and the Saints, New Orleans certainly became a more skilled organization.

It all started early in the offseason when the team added Emmanuel Sanders. With a few 1,000-yard seasons and Pro Bowl appearances to his name, Sanders will be a welcome addition to a dominant Saints offense led by future first-ball Hall of Famer Drew Brees.

On top of Sanders, the team drafted Zack Baun who had a terrific career at Wisconsin. He’ll help out on the defensive side while first-round draft pick Cesar Ruiz helps shore up the team’s offensive line.

With those players and many that have consistently put in work for the black and gold, the Saints will look to win their fourth straight NFC South title. If they do so, it will be a divisional record. They’re currently tied with the Carolina Panthers.

They’ll easily claim the division if they continue to do a few things that have made them a dominant franchise for the last few seasons. That said, let’s dive into four things the Saints are among the league’s best in.
