NFL Network predicts outcome of every Saints game in 2022

NFL Network’s Adam Rank forecast the records for all 32 NFL teams, and he didn’t take a favorable view of the New Orleans Saints. Despite their gutsy performances against the reigning NFC South champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the past, he’s predicting a worse finish than last year without Sean Payton at the helm in New Orleans.
