Did anyone else see this comment fro Peter King today, are national expectations that low for the Saints this year?

To schedule the Saints or Bears or Giants here (all Bucs home foes this year) doesn’t seem smart because any of them could be a game that’s over by halftime. Not so with Buffalo or Dallas. The Bills could go to Tampa and win the opener, and the Cowboys, with Dak Prescott leading an explosive offense, would be able to go toe-to-toe with the Arians/Brady offense. We’ll see, but those are the two sexiest home foes for the Bucs, and I think one of them will open the NFL’s 102nd season.

Read the part about Dallas and he loses even more credibility

Bills vs. Bucs is a pretty good matchup. Cowboys vs. Bucs? What a joke.

I can't imagine that America wouldn't be interested in a matchup between Brady and the former #1 draft pick that he replaced as QB, who himself will be taking over from a first-ballot hall of famer in his first start as a Saint in a division battle between last year's division champion and the team that knocked them out of the playoffs and won the Super Bowl.

exactly right, although I’d rather not open with them. Biggest issue with his comment is might be over by halftime, I mean really

I hope we don’t. I don’t want Winston starting his first gm agsinst that defense

Or Hill for that matter.

Got that right!

 

[Saint-CJ]

Got that right!

Ok, so maybe that’s what he meant

 

[49erKiller]

There's a reason his mamma named him Peter.

 

[SuperSaint]

The media is going to miss the boat big time on the Saints this year, we're going to 'surprise' everyone!

 

[Misipsaintfan]

There is not many, if any, of the talking heads that I really listen to. Sure for entertainment chris simms is #1 for a good laugh but peter king never crossed my radar. However today I got a good chuckle out of him so good job.

 

[Saintsphere]

I'm not bothered. We were the sexy team the last three years. We just lost our HOF QB and a ton of utility players. Of course there are going to be a ton of people down on us this year.
