How Many Regular Season Games Are the Saints Likely to Win?
Oddsmakers at BetPhoenix have the Saints winning 10 or more regular season games at -125.
CBS Sports writer Sean Wagner-McGough predicts the Saints will win the NFC, and here is why.
He writes:
As the calendar turns from summer to fall -- more importantly, from meaningless football to meaningful football -- the Saints should be regarded as the favorites in the NFC over the Eagles, Vikings, Rams, and Packers. It has a lot to do with Drew Brees, Alvin Kamara, Mark Ingram, and Michael Thomas, but it has just as much to do with a budding defense and the additions they've welcomed into the ranks.
He adds: Defense made the leap, added reinforcements, Offense can attack in so many different ways and there are questions about the other contenders.
Those questions include whether the Eagles can stay healthy. They are already entering the season a bit beat up.
And then there’s the Vikings:
The case against the Vikings is interesting. Although they upgraded at quarterback by switching out Case Keenum for Kirk Cousins, there's actually reason to think that they might experience worse quarterback play in 2018 than they did in 2017. That's not to say that Keenum is a better quarterback than Cousins (he's not). It just means that Keenum played the season of a lifetime a year ago and Cousins might not be able to recreate those numbers (and Keenum likely wouldn't have been able to either, for the record).
