NFL Announces Saints 2011 Regular Season Schedule

04-19-2011, 10:34 PM

Definitely a good thing that we don't have any Real late season, outdoor stadium/weather concerns, besides Minnesota. And isn't mid December still relatively early?

Total brain fart. Obviously Minnesota is not a weather concern. I was watching something on NFLN about their old, outdoor stadium. It must have clouded my brain!? My bad.

Our Bye week is well placed on that schedule, just in time for the last stretch of the season. Agreed it's a tough schedule, but I thought that at the start of 2009, look what happened then. We can't have any inconsistency like last year, we've gotta be on our game!

Hate this schedule. Almost impossible to plan a decent vacation around it. If they could atleast have placed the two away games in florida in back to back weeks.
Might be so bad that I don't get to see a Saints game at all.

I think it's a tough schedule but the Green Bay game should be a good one and yeah it's in Green Bay we knew we was going to have to go up there and at least it will be early in the season and we don't have to worry about the weather, the three game in the row on the road worrys me a little. I think the schedule will show what kind of team we have and are we up for it.

I guess I'm in the minority then... I love the schedule.

At least the three straight road games are pretty close, geographically. Not like we will be going coast-to-coast.

And agreed, the first two games will really set the tone for us, we absolutely have to get off to a strong start.

I like the bye week myself. Week 11 is a good spot to take a rest a prepare for a final run. At that point we should know what we are working with and who we can count on and who needs backup. Just give me some solid defense that holds teams to 20 or less; we'll end up 12-4 or better.
