Saints' 2024 Schedule Deemed Easiest in the League

AsylumGuido · 01-29-2024, 12:18 PM

This may come as a surprise to some local pundits, but based upon the resulting records from the 2023 season the Saints have the easiest 2024 schedule in the NFL.

The end of excuses for this staff.

Rez is right, however, that this season past, our SOS needs to be reassessed in the light of the playoff performances of the teams the Saints faced on their supposed easiest NFL schedule in 2023.

Yeah. That's why I've always thought the strength of schedule comparisons were fairly meaningless. It only takes a key injury here or there, or a surprise breakout player or two here or there, or a great draft to throw a wrench into the projections.

The bottom line is, we are unable to withstand any wrench thrown at us. Another year, another chance to watch better teams play football in the playoffs.

Let's see who the new OC is before we declare an early championship.

I doubt many teams have the Saints game circled as a probable loss.

Easy now… we’re coming out of the first decade of our “rebuild”. Give it time…
