might be in a generally weak conference in the NFC, but the NFC South should still present a challenge with the Tom Brady-led Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+2.5) and the rival Atlanta Falcons (-1.5) always playing the Saints tough. The Carolina Panthers (+1.5) also exist.
It should come as no surprise that DraftKings has the over/under betting line for the Saints’ 2022 win total at 8 games. But, on the back of an elite defense, the Saints could exceed expectations.
Football Outsiders, which coined the statistic “DVOA,” had the Saints ranked 4th in total DOVA in 2021.
