2012 NFL Schedule: Teams Sure to Ride Schedule to Hot Start | Bleacher Report


I could see us taking all these even Green Bay, they'll have a short week and our D should be much improved!!!!

A strong start this year is VERY important. If we can weather the storm of the worst of the suspensions (still waiting to hear about players, grrrr) then get Vitt back with a reasonable record, we will be in much better shape to finish the season strong. If we stumble and are limping along, it will be very difficult to come back from that without Payton. This is definitely the year that the Saints really can't afford to drop any games that they "should" win. Games like Carolina, KC, Oakland and so forth are MUST WINs now.
