Packers: Saints game in Week 3 will be important early-season test

The Green Bay Packers will be expected to be in the NFC race again this year. Will they be able to compete with the other heavyweights in the conference?

We’ll get a good idea early in the season. In Week 3, the Packers head to the Superdome to meet the New Orleans Saints, winners of the NFC South three years running.

The Saints have one of the deepest rosters in football and have dominated in recent years, going a combined 37-11 since the start of 2017.

Saints go from strength to strength

New Orleans should’ve gone further than the wild-card round last season, there’s no doubt about that.
