When breaking down the 2024 New Orleans Saints schedule, the term "easy" is relative.

The Saints are tied with the Falcons for last in "strength of schedule," a statistic that gauges schedule difficult by using the prior year's win/loss record. As Mike Detillier explained Thursday morning to WWL's Tommy Tucker, that figure isn't all it's cracked up to be.

"The schedule is really skewed with this 'easy' stuff, because of the fact you play the worst team in the NFL twice and last year the second worst team in the NFL once," Detillier said. "That’s how that 'easiest schedule' thing got pieced together.” ...

Saints will play two teams coming off of bye weeks in 2024

NFL teams always want more time to prepare for their next game, but the inverse is also true — it’s frustrating whenever an opposing team is getting more time to rest and plan for them. Fortunately for the New Orleans Saints, they’ll be playing just two teams coming off of bye week breaks in 2024. And both of those matchups are scheduled for kickoff at the Caesars Superdome.

The Cleveland Browns will be off in Week 10 before traveling to New Orleans in Week 11; last year, Cleveland limped into the playoffs with an 11-6 record after injuries sidelined starting quarterback Deshaun Watson...

Every away game on the Saints 2024 schedule

The New Orleans were able to walk out of 2023 without any cold-weather games. This is something Saints players and likely fans were happy to see. In 2024, they won’t be as lucky. The Saints take a trip to New York in early December, but that isn’t it. It gets worse when they have to travel to Lambeau Field to play the Packers on Monday Night Football. Those temperatures will likely be below freezing a couple days before Christmas.

Outside of a few cold-weather games, the Saints travel schedule isn’t too bad. They don’t have more than two road games consecutively. They only have one trip to the west coast and one trip to the northeast, so the traveling is kept to a minimum. Tough games against the Packers, Chiefs and Cowboys are road contests, however, with two of three being on prime time.

As the head coach of the Saints, Dennis Allen is 7-10 outside of the Caesar’s Superdome. Here are the games he needs to win on the roaad in 2024:

Every home game on the Saints 2024 schedule

Unlike last year, the New Orleans Saints play more home games than away games this year. Their extra AFC opponent is a home game against the Cleveland Browns. With an advantageous bye week, the schedule makers were kind to New Orleans. After a Week 9 contest versus the Carolina Panthers, the Saints don’t have to travel again until Week 14 against the Giants.

New Orleans also has their home games well timed around prime-time games. After traveling to Arrowhead for a Monday Night Football game versus Kansas City, they return home on a short week to face the Buccaneers in the Caesar’s Superdome. New Orleans’ other road prime-time game is sandwiched between two home games

Dennis Allen is 9-8 in his New Orleans Saints career at home. Here are the games he must win at the Caesars Superdome in 2024:

Saints' reunion games valued drastically different by NFL schedule makers

There are two games on the New Orleans Saints schedule this season that feature prominent reunions, Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders. There could be a third game if you include C.J. Gardner Johnson returning to town with the Philadelphia Eagles. However, his departure was three years ago and injuries have kept him from playing the Saints in the previous two years.

The Raiders and Broncos are prominent reunions, but they are being treated drastically different. Sean Payton’s return to New Orleans is obviously a much bigger deal and is being treated as such. The Saints and Broncos face...

CSC Poll Results: Which remaining free agent should the Saints sign?

In this week’s CSC poll, we asked our readers which remaining free agent they would like to see the New Orleans Saints sign:

After 157 votes, former Commanders and Bears LT Charles Leno won with 34.4% of the vote. Clearly in favor of bringing in another tackle, even after drafting Taliese Fuaga in the first round of the draft, Leno is a free agent after spending three years in Washington and seven in Chicago. The Saints could bring Leno in as a veteran backup to Trevor Penning who could step in whenever needed if Penning struggles or any lineman misses time. Despite being a 7th round...

Predicting Saints' 2024 record with game-by-game picks

The NFL released its schedule of games for all 32 teams this week, so now we’re able to look at the New Orleans Saints’ slate and make an educated guess at how their season may turn out. Can Dennis Allen improve on last year’s 9-8 finish, his first winning record in five years as a head coach in the NFL?

It isn’t going to be easy. While the Saints have some winnable games lined up, they’re going to be put in some difficult situations in prime time against familiar opponents and Super Bowl contenders. Still, the NFC South is vulnerable, and that’s going to give New Orleans a chance to make some noise and maybe sneak into the playoffs.

Depending on where you look, most sportsbooks have the Saints at 7.5 wins this season. So are you taking the over or the under? Here are our game-by-game picks for wins, losses, and the final record:

The NFL officially released the 18-week schedule for all 32 teams on Wednesday, revealing a tough start for the New Orleans Saints.

Although the Saints will open the season by hosting the Carolina Panthers, who bolstered the worst record in the NFL in 2023, their next five matchups will be tough. The Saints will travel to Dallas for their Week 2 matchup with the regular season merchant Dallas Cowboys who have posted three consecutive 12-win seasons. New Orleans will continue to face NFC East opponents when they host the Philidelphia Eagles in Week 3. The Eagles have made the playoffs in...
