Week 10 | New Orleans Saints, No. 4
The Saints are a little like the Seahawks in that as long as Drew Brees is under center they’re a playoff contender. This New Orleans team is loaded on both sides of the ball though and if not for a monster run by George Kittle last season in New Orleans, the Saints might’ve been the ones facing the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV. New Orleans is a top-five NFL team as long as they’re healthy, and they should be in the mix all year.
Key quote:
“Two acquisitions makes them stronger, one on each side of the ball — receiver Emmanuel Sanders, who signed a two-year, $16 million deal to bolster a receiver group that had been Michael Thomas and the Pips, and cornerback Janoris Jenkins, who excelled in New Orleans after the Giants released him last December.”
