The New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers have taken very different paths in the 2022 offseason. The Saints have overhauled a roster that produced just nine wins a year ago, failing to make the postseason for the first time since a three-year dry spell from 2014 to 2016. The Buccaneers, on the other hand, spent the offseason keeping the proverbial band together, setting up the defending NFC South champions to make one more run at a Super Bowl with Tom Brady under center.
This past week we got to see the New Orleans Saints' full schedule release, which includes 3 primetime games & a trip to London. With this, we now get a chance to see who the Saints will be opening the season against and how the last games of the schedule could impact their chances at a playoff push. In this article, I will be going over my first 5 thoughts regarding this schedule, and how they may affect the Saints' chances at a playoff run throughout the season.
Over the past few days, the Panthers have now been linked to both halves of the former Saints power duo of Sean Payton and Drew Brees.
