The Saints are relevant at 3-4, and in the hunt at 4-4

We have to win 10 games. That's the number.

There are too many teams in the hunt and the Falcons are almost assuredly going to win 10+ and get that 5th seed.

Have you seen the remaining schedule for the Saints?
Home games: Giants, Titans, Panthers, Lions, Jags
Road games: Redskins, Bucs, Texans, Falcons

We will be favored in every one of those games except possibly the Panthers game (in which I think Saints will be a slight favorite when that game happens) and the road Falcons game.

I am predicting the Saints will win 8 of the last 9 to finish 11-5.
