Which of the following five opponents do you think the Saints will face in Week One.

Bucs
Falcons
Dolphins
Packers
Cowboys
 
Bucs.. All about the money. They want to see Winston against his old team. Post Brees era begin. Might be a Thursday night opener
 
bucs home opponents,

cowboys, giants, bills, dolphins, saints, falcons, panthers, bears.

i dont think any of those would draw as much as a saints/bucs opener.

so i'm gonna say sept 9th, TNF, saints @ bucs.
 
That's what an unconfirmed leak has been showing. Cowboys vs Bucs on Thursday Night.
I'd be happy with that...I hate having to open against the Bucs.... seems like we've had to do that a few times over the last handful of seasons.

Although, I thought the league was trying to set up division opponents opening week and the last few weeks of season. For the divisional standings intrigue.....

So maybe, Falcons/Panthers vs Saints week 1 at Superdome.
 
Bucs at their home. The RG and the NFL are going to want to send the Saints a tough message and put us in the L category early and do what they can to keep us there.

My money is on the Bucs, but not for the reasons you think.
Like it or not, the Saints have become a marquee franchise in the 00s.
Add that with Winston going back to his former team against Brady, and a guaranteed important game on opening night, it’s a ratings win.
 
I say Falcons. How many times have the Saints had the same opponent open the season back to back?
 
My money is on the Cowboys - after all aren't they America's team...
 
Kind of hope it's an OOC opponent heavy the 1st 4 weeks.
 
Pretty sure I heard a leak on AM radio that it will be the Bucs. I was driving, so I could have heard wrong. Thought I heard Saints/Bucs and Panthers/Falcons. Like I said, I could be mistaken
