Poll: Are the Saints the team to beat in the NFC?

Of the four remaining teams in the NFC side of the playoff bracket, the New Orleans Saints just might be the most feared.

Fresh off their wild-card round defeat of the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, the Saints will next visit the Minnesota Vikings in the divisional playoffs while the Philadelphia Eagles meet the Atlanta Falcons.

Of that quartet, the Saints have the most revered and experienced quarterback in future Hall of Famer Drew Brees. Meanwhile, the rushing duo of Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara can stand up to the Falcons' Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman. And New Orleans' defense has shown marked improvement this season, finishing ninth in takeaways.

So, are the Saints the team to beat in the NFC?
