When we looked at the NFL schedule to open the season, no one had a tougher road than the New Orleans Saints. Every one of their first four contests was against playoff teams from the 2018 Season. True to form, those teams currently have a combined 11-5 record. The schedule makers seemed to want to find out if the Saints were still a real threat. After four games, the verdict is in and the answer is a resounding, yes!
I made my preseason prediction that the Saints would open the season 2-2. I’m very happy to say I was wrong!
