Saints Bye Week History

1 Attachment(s)

I recently uploaded this graphic to a page on my site dedicated to NFL bye weeks and thought you guys would like it.

The infographic details how well the Saints have performed historically following a bye week (last 5 years) and also how well they play against other teams returning from a bye week.

Re: Saints Bye Week History

What was going to be considered the easier part of the schedule certainly looks more daunting...

Detroit clobbered us the last time we came off a BYE and played the Lions, so that's a concern...

The Lions just beat Minnesota 14-7 in an ugly death-cage match fight, where the Vikes lost Dalvin Cook...

Looks like we're gonna need the BYE week to scout and take these Lions very seriously as a balanced threat...

Re: Saints Bye Week History

We are at home though and are 5-0 at home off the bye since 2007. That said, we almost lost to Carolina last year, so we're not rock solid off the bye. In all honesty, AP has a positive history against this team but he won't get enough carries and he may have lost a step. Is Kamara the answer? Lions couldn't stop Freeman.

The only time we played Denver in 2012 we got destroyed. That table says we won which is incorrect.

Biggest thing in this BYE is that our guys can come out of this week stronger, healthier and with more film time on them...

Yep, thanks. That one should have been obvious, huh? I've corrected it on my site.

I was at that game. "Destroyed" is putting it mildly. It was a long walk back to the car.

Remember that game in 68? "They may have won the game......"

Glenn in his second year has been able to develop Crawley and a couple of other players.

Still, none of these games look like a gimme'. :couch:

Even our BYE is gonna be a touch, Hurricane Nate...

Well, maybe the team can shelter at Saints HQ and gets extra film study done...

This schedule, when all is said and done, will be one of the most daunting in the NFL by season's end...Either way, if we want to be the best, bring all comers...

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 11:37 AM.
