Warren Sharp has the Saints #1 with the easiest schedule, but has us listed as 9.35 win total. Falcons are listed at #2. Panthers are #4. Buccaneers are #17.

Most of our division has the easiest schedule. I still think we can easily have a 12-14 win season with Carr and the offense we have. The question will be how will injuries and staying healthy affect that outcome as well as coaching.

The 49ers have the 5th easiest schedule and my gut tells me we are going to be competing with them for the top spot. I really don't see another team in the NFC really standing out now that Rodgers and Wilson are in the AFC.

What are your thoughts? Do you think we will finish top in the NFC?

The AFC East plays the NFC East. The AFC West plays the NFC North. The AFC North plays the NFC West. The AFC South plays the NFC South. Hard generally equals dominant quarterbacks. The good quarterbacks are loaded into the AFC East, West, and North and NFC East. Most of the teams the Saints play also have an easy schedule. I would bet the over on the Saints for the same reason you bet on the best team in a bad college conference or a high school team that dominates 4A but does not have to test itself against 5A teams. The Eagles have a tougher schedule than last year. The Saints have an easier schedule this year. In 2022 the NFC East played the AFC South and the NFC North. In those 8 games the Eagles went 8-0. This year the NFC South gets that schedule.
