The Saints, in their last 10 games, have their five toughest games at home (Rams, Eagles, Falcons, Steelers, Panthers) and five away (Vikings, Bengals, Cowboys, Bucs, Panthers).

The Panthers likewise have five home (Ravens, Bucs, Seahawks, Saints, Falcons) and five away (Steelers, Lions, Bucs, Browns, Saints).

The Falcons get the short end of the stick, as they have just THREE of their remaining NINE games at home (currently 0-2 on the road). Their three home games are vs. Cowboys, Ravens and Cardinals, whereas their away games are against Redskins, Browns, Saints, Packers, Panthers and Bucs. 

This appears to be a setup for the division title coming down to the last game, in New Orleans for the division crown, provided both teams stay the course.

I'm glad the Saints face Dallas with Amari lol but looking at that schedule it's brutal for the Saints still have a hungry Eagles strong Rams Bengals getting hungry with a few losses Dallas fighting for their life the Steelers and Vikings and to face us after the Sweep last year smells like trouble tbh.

Yep. 10-6 could win the division

The Saints easily have the toughest schedule left, especially with Dallas having Cooper now. Atlanta has the easiest with the caveat of road games. They also have the disadvantage of being 2 losses behind us and 3 behind the Saints.

We just need to keep winning and have to win the home games. If we can hold at home then 2-3 on the road (Bucs and Browns) has us in playoffs.

Yeah Dallas is a sleeper team that can light up NO now they have Cooper. We faced them at the right time because Shaun Lee and Cooper should be 100% to face the Falcons.

Sucks that even a few of the Saints away games this year are being played in domes. Brees having to play outside in the cold vs. playing in his precious domes are a world of difference.

Yeah, Brees is 2-0 in his last two games where the game temperature was below freezing. Also having the #1 rush defense in the league that travels very well helps. You’re going to need a better excuse.

I love hating on the Saints but I just checked Drew Brees stats this season.    WTF.

We’re really taking care of the ball uncharacteristically well this year. It’s crazy even for us Saints fans to take in.

He’s currently on pace for career high (and some NFL record) numbers in completion percentage, yards/attempt, adjusted yards/attempt, passer rating, QBR, game winning drives and 4th quarter comebacks. The last two thanks to our shaky secondary.

In addition to career lows in interceptions, TD/INT rate, and interception rate.

We’re running lots of high percentage passing plays, he’s not forcing many throws as he often has in years past. All on top of pounding the rock and bullying teams in time of possession (trying to keep our defense off the field and well rested).

Our offense is currently 1st in time per drive and plays per drive and are 3rd in yards/drive and 2nd in points/drive. Our defense is currently 19th, 25th, 28th, and 29th in those same categories hence why we’re trying to keep them on the sideline with prolonged offensive drives.

      I think we pick it up and then someone else ends up emerging as the QB next year and we end up cutting him in year 5 and eating it.  That would be the most on brand thing to happen.

      Film on Panthers defensive failure. Same scheme issue over and over

      Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
