Saints are third in the NFC South win total over/unders
We have a better idea of where each NFL team stands going into 2024, and so do oddsmakers. DraftKings Sportsbook has released their lines for wins in the 2024 season. Similar to power rankings, it is still a very early prediction. Teams have yet to go through the NFL draft, and those selections often play a pivotal part in how teams are viewed heading into the season.
The New Orleans Saints are currently set at over/under 7.5 victories. There are only eight teams that have a lower win projection. Once again, this falls in line with power rankings that had the Saints in the bottom eight of the NFL.
So this means the Saints will likely be viewed like this going into next season unless they have a highly regarded draft class. They have to earn stronger expectations after underperforming in two years with Dennis Allen at head coach. Finishes at 7-10 and 9-7 haven’t been good enough to reach their stated goal: the playoffs.
New Orleans’ win projection ranks third in the division. The addition of Kirk Cousins has skyrocketed the view of the Atlanta Falcons. They are tied for the second-highest over/under in the NFC (10.5). Tampa Bay finds themselves slightly above New Orleans at 8.5. The slight difference between the two is reflective of how last year played out. The only team in the division the Saints are ahead of is the Carolina Panthers, whose over/under is set at 4.5.
