How will the Saints do this year?

I say they win the division and go 11-5. They added Sharper and drafted Jenkins @ Corner. Tracy Porter will be healthy and Usama Young is making a transition to one of the safety positions. They also have a new DC. Their secondary was the problem on D. They were good against the run.

They really haven't done much to boost the Defense and they play against the AFC and NFC east divisions this year so they could go 8-8. Being able to score doesn't mean as much when you aren't able to stop the other team. Probably the NFC south winner will be the Panthers because of their running due or Buccaneers who have the biggest chance of being a suprise team this year with many offensive weapons added and a good O Coach and D coach anything is possible like the Dolphins and Falcons showed last year. Right now everything is just speculation.

Saints-11-5 win division

Panthers-9-7

Falcons-9-7

Buccaneers-5-11

They'll be a wildcard contender. The other wildcard slot belongs to one of the teams in the NFC East.

Even if they make it to the playoffs, they'll get knocked off in the first round.

7-9

9-7 or 10-6 wildcard team

10-6 wildcard

No better than 10-6. They wouln't make the playoffs though. Either the Buccaneers or Panthers will win the division.

Drew Brees will put uop good numbers though.

11-5 win NFC south

6-10

but brees still puts up crazy numbers
