Here’s what I don’t get re Saints ranking predictions

The first 5 or so games of our schedule are tough. If we can manage a winning record in those games, the expectations will be reset way higher. If we start out 2-4 or something like that, the prognosticators will come out and talk about how right they are, but it won’t mean the season is over. It’s just how the talking heads play the game.
3-3 is the floor. The Saints cannot afford to even lose one division game in that stretch and still expect to be in it in the end.
