This has to be the silliest schedule I've seen. Super early Bye, and we only have 2 division games before December, and then 4 in December! How is that even possible?

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
 
For those interested there is a great deal in Groupon right now for a trip to London the week of the game. It's $1000 and includes airfare, rental car, lodging. You stay in London 3 days the weekend of the game and then fly to Ireland for 3 days all included in the $1000. It leaves out of Boston or NYC so you have to fly there on your own dime but they have flights there for a little over 100.
It is a lot of money but usually you would pay 1000 for the airfare alone.

Bit of advice
Dont bother with car rental in London. Absolutely no need unless you are staying for more than a few days and want to go elsewhere


You'll have to get an oyster card(pre paid travel) to travel via train or london bus.

If any of you want one before you travel i can sort it out my end and send it to you if you have paypal. Just sort out how much you want plus the price of the card (think its £5) and ill sort it out so you can use it as soon as you get here.

The dolphins asked not to have a bye after London and to play at home week 1. They got their wish. the bengals wanted to play at home week 1. They got their wish. The ravens did not want a bye after London. They got their wish. And guess who also has a week 5 bye? Atlanta.

However, there were no reports that our FO asked to not have the bye after London and it's probably a good thing we got the bye considering who we are playing week 6.

Only two early starts in their time zone for the entire season...

Two consecutive Thursday games allowing for a ten day break before starting the month of December...

Five night time games...

Nine late afternoon games despite being in the central time zone...

Most difficult opponents will be faced at home...

Only one East Coast / West Coast visiting games scheduled, but both have late or nighttime starts...

And only early game start, and they're in the Central Time Zone, is last game of season when game will likely be meaningless as they'll have a playoff berth...

Can you guess the team?

My wife grew up there. No way in hell im driving in London. She can drive us out of town and I'll take over from there. I know what you mean though, I don't know why anyone would rent a car unless they were leaving London. Hell the cab rides are part of it.
