Opinion: Predicting every game of the New Orleans Saints 2020 schedule
Games 13-16:
Week 14 has the Saints traveling to Philadelphia in December in what could be a snowy game vs the Eagles.
The Eagles will likely be in a close competition with the Dallas Cowboys for the top spot in the division so I expect them to come out hot. However, the Saints have always been good vs the Eagles and I think they’ll win this one 24-14.
Week 15 has the Saints playing host to the Kansas City Chiefs. This will likely go down as a classic battle as Brees is getting set to retire and Mahomes is looking to take over as the new top dog in the NFL.
I think the two teams will go back and forth and both defenses should certainly be left off your fantasy football teams. I do however think the Chiefs will win this one 42-41 but a rematch in the Super Bowl could be a legitimate possibility.
Week 16 has the Saints hosting the Minnesota Vikings on Christmas Day. It’ll be a quick turnaround for both teams as they’ll have just five days between their last game to this one.
In what is likely to be Drew Brees’ final home regular-season game, I don’t think there’s any way the Saints lose this one. The Saints will get their revenge from the 2019 playoffs and win this one significantly 31-10.
Week 17 has New Orleans traveling to Carolina to play the Panthers. This could be a resting game for some Saints starters depending on how the rankings look, but I think the Panthers will surely be on the bottom of the division.
The Panthers will likely be looking to get the season over with and New Orleans will win significantly 42-28.
