NFL.com says the Saints won't make the playoffs

Bill said

True, but it’s also a ‘handwriting on the wall’ league.
There is literally zero reason to select the Saints as a playoff candidate at this time. Unrealistic expectations are for starry-eyed fans… not for sports writers.

With the Saints’ brutal early schedule, realistic fans should consider a 7-10 record this year to be a great accomplishment.

Reading this thread….lol

Most of these ledge dwellers assume that every team in the NFL is in great shape and has great coaches and coordinators and are 3 deep in depth at every position. And have probowl QBs and WRs. Guess what. Every team has issues, that’s why they say any team can beat any team in the NFL. Theres parity throughout, ever hear that? The difference between a win and loss is a few plays and a lucky bounce or two. How many games did we get blown out of? NONE in the last 3 years or maybe longer. So thinking the Saints are going to get blown out all year is more of a reflection of your own negative character nature or a lack of knowledge of the competition.
