Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
We are going to London for the game

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
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. |
Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
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. |

Wow, wonder who Roger likes?
Sun, Sep 10 vs Giants 7:30 PM Sun, Sep 17 @ Broncos 3:25 PM Mon, Sep 25 @ Cardinals 7:30 PM Sun, Oct 01 vs Rams 12:00 PM Sun, Oct 08 vs Packers 3:25 PM Sun, Oct 22 @ 49ers 3:05 PM Sun, Oct 29 @ Redskins 3:25 PM Sun, Nov 05 vs Chiefs 3:25 PM Sun, Nov 12 @ Falcons 3:25 PM Sun, Nov 19 vs Eagles 7:30 PM Thu, Nov 23 vs Chargers 3:30 PM Thu, Nov 30 vs Redskins 7:25 PM Sun, Dec 10 @ Giants 3:25 PM Sun, Dec 17 @ Oakland 7:30 PM Sun, Dec 24 vs Seattle 3:25 PM Sun, Dec 24 @ Eagles 12:00 PM 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? |

Cabs are not cheap in London
The underground train service and red buses will get you anywhere you need to go. You cant pay cash on the buses anymore though. |

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
I'm going to go conservative while also doing the unexpected. I'm going with 7-9
|
Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
12-4, easily
|
Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
Really depends on this draft and remaining FA signings. Before the draft, I'm feeling 11-5...

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
I would be kind of happy with 10-6. I am really also disappointed with the lack of division games being played until December It gets tougher I think as the season is wearing down and can depend a lot more on who will be available to play. Tired of Roger constantly screwing this team and doing his best to make it a tough on this team as he can. Just wish something could be done about Him. You would think Benson would have someway to get his attention. Maybe Roger has a hard on for Him also. I wish that all of the fans who hate Roger could find a way to come together and demand his outage even if it meant boycotting or protesting in some way.

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
Also the division games are the most physical and important that puts pressure on the guys physically and emotionally and jamming them altogether like that is just is a F#%@ing crime.

Do we really think Goodell sets out to give the saints tough schedules when his job along with Howard Katz is to approve a schedule made by Mike North and two other men. We have had easy schedules and we have had hard schedules. Atlanta does not have any easier of a schedule either. And it is actually a good thing to play division rivals late, we need to learn to beat teams outside division to have the momentum in division games. Outside and superior records affect most division games. We played three division games in the first half of 2015, we went 1-2. The only division games late that's a problem is Atlanta twice in three weeks. |

Re: 2017 New Orleans Saints Schedule
Damn. This is a tough schedule!
We start on the road then play the Super bowl champs. The first four games are not just tough matches they are difficult opponents and we are notorious for slow starts. With all the new faces on defense it's a tough row to hoe early on. Later in the season we play three games in like eight or nine days I believe(I don't have the schedule in front of me. |

...playing a road game then playing in England in the fourth week with a Week 5 Bye (why isn't this in the middle of the season?)... ...playing a Thursday road game on the road in ATL and then having to face them seventeen days later... ...not to mention having to play in Buffalo, then two weeks later having to play in the other LA... Definitely earn your mileage this season if you're traveling with the team... |

Anybody thinking about making the trip to Lambeau for the game against the Packers? I'm thinking about having my old man come up and taking him and it would be cool to maybe meet up with some fellow Who Dats!

Getting out the gate quickly will be paramount for the Saints. Three away games in four weeks is tough.
