Saints 2012 schedule

OldMaid · 12-29-2011, 02:57 PM

Minus the division games, there are about five teams there the Saints did not play against this year.
Looks like an okay schedule to me and pretty much the same.

Home: Philadephia, Washington, Denver, Kansas City, San Francisco.

THE GOOD
We get to play Tebow!!!

THE BAD
We have to play Green Bay and Lambeau AGAIN
Would love to see them in the Dome...

Aggravating that we can't give Green Bay a DOME welcome! Ugh....why do we have to keep playing them at their house??? That stinks. I wanna take this up with the schedule maker!

They did the same thing to us with the bears, took like 4 years to get them into a game at the SD. I don't think any of it is set in stone yet as far as home and away, I would expect there to be a few tweaks.

Atlanta, Carolina, and Tampa Bay, we all know one game home and one there. Here is the rest:

Home: Philadephia, Washington, Denver, Kansas City, San Francisco.

Away: Dallas, NY Giants, Oakland, San Diego, Green Bay.

Away schedule looks brutal. Carolina is going to be a force next year if Cam keeps it up. Phili will be Phili, and they always play hard. Oakland seems to be figuring it out and Dallas, San Diego and Green Bay are definitely not cakewalks. Hopefully we will continue to improve our defense in the offseason. I am not too excited about next years schedule.

Have to admit the thought of obliterating dallas in their wonderfully gaudy trillion dollar dome and fans,, appeals to me greatly

If I'm not mistaken the TV ratings for the last Saints/Cowboys Turkey Day game were through the roof, I would not be surprised to see that one be a Thursday Thanksgiving Day game on national TV.

seems like we should be at Philly and home to GB, based on the rotation system
I'm guessing the Super Bowl, Thanksgiving, and MNF will dictate some of this
