Smell the Ashes
I think the Saints are going to have an down year just go against expectations.
How many times have I seen teams go from one of the worst teams in the league, to having one of the best records in the league, then go to being average the next. Happens every year.
Just off that, I'll say the Saints will go around 8-8.
They'll do well but I'm not going to automatically put them as top contenders in the NFC. They had alot going last year with being back in NO, and easy schedule. I dont think thats going to happen this year. I think they're going to do alright, but not what they did last year. I think teams will be ready for the Saints and play them as an tough oppenent than last year on where teams (partly during the first half of the season) treated them as cannon fodder.
