Saints Set Sights on 16-0

New Orleans Saints (12-0) Head Coach Sean Payton said on Sunday that he will look to go undefeated, even if the team clinches home field advantage before the season ends.

After the Vikings loss on Sunday night, the Saints now have a 2-game lead for the best record in the NFC. With Atlanta’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, the Saints have clinched the NFC South crown.

This is good news for the fantasy owners of Drew Brees, Pierre Thomas, Marques Colston and the rest of the Saints as the fear of Saints’ players sitting for the fantasy playoffs is now diminished.
