2010 New Orleans Saints Schedule

2009 Review:

The New Orleans Saints finished the 2009 season on top of the NFL world by defeating the Indianapolis Colts in Super Bowl XLIV. The Saints in ’08 were just 8-8 and in 2009 the logged an impressive 13 victories which was a franchise record, going from worst to first in their division. During the season the Saints started out winning their first 13 games and ended the season on a 3 game losing streak, and many wondered if they would have the ability to bounce back, needless to say they did. The Super Bowl victory was the first ever in Saints history. New Orleans is looking for more of the same but you know what they say it is a lonely place at the top and everyone is looking to knock off the champs. New Orleans has a bull’s eye on their back so they must be ready to play every time the step on the field. They are looking for more of the same from Drew Brees who was truly dominant at the quarterback position and the rushing attack helped to free up the passing attack which made for a well balanced attack. The Saints are looking to resign many veterans during the off season so they can make another championship run.

2010 Preview:

This season the Saints are looking to repeat as Super Bowl champions which is never an easy task. They have Drew Brees back running the show at quarterback and receivers Henderson and Colston making big plays down the field and running back Pierre Thomas keeping the running game steady. I think the Saints have a lot of tools to repeat, but the pressure to repeat could be too much. The defense must have the same intensity and passion they showed last season which is hard to duplicate. The Saints will have a great run but I think they come up short for a repeat.

2010 Prediction:

New Orleans Saints: 11-5 (1st place in NFC South) playoffs
