Next 3 games.......must wins?????

Atlanta has succesfully gone thru the difficult part of the schedule. I don't see them losing more than 3 games the rest of the season:

Nov 5 @Detroit
Nov 12 Cleveland
Nov 19 @Baltimore
Nov 26 New Orleans
Dec 3 @Washington
Dec 10 @Tampa Bay
Dec 16 Dallas
Dec 24 Carolina
Dec 31 @Philadelphia

The saints schedule is tougher now, we have difficult visits at Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Dallas and New York:

Nov 5 @Tampa Bay
Nov 12 @Pittsburgh
Nov 19 Cincinnati
Nov 26 @Atlanta
Dec 3 San Francisco
Dec 10 @Dallas
Dec 17 Washington
Dec 24 @N.Y. Giants
Dec 31 Carolina

The saints should improve dramatically if they want to get to the play-offs. If you look at the schedules of the rams and vikings makes you think if there is a chance of a wild-card in the conference.

Having a more difficult schedule, however, can be a good preparation for the future.
