How the saints get the eagles, rams, steelers at home? Eat a fat dick

The same exact way y'all got the Eagles at home in 2015, the Steelers at home in 2014, and the Seahawks at home this year.

It's called the "schedule rotation" and I'd wager you don't know how it works.

Our home-away schedule is the direct opposite of y'alls with the exception of those two same-place finisher games (Rams/Seahawks both at home and Vikings/Lions both on the road).

When we last played the NFC East in 2015, we played the Giants and Cowboys in New Orleans and traveled to the Eagles and Redskins. On the contrary, you guys hosted the Eagles and Redskins in Charlotte and traveled to the Giants and Cowboys.

Same thing with the AFC North in 2014: we hosted the Ravens and the Bengals in New Orleans and traveled to the Steelers and the Browns while y'all hosted the Steelers and Browns and traveled to the Ravens and the Bengals.

Y'all and the Falcons have the same home-away schedule (@ PHI, @ WAS, vs. DAL, vs. NYG, @ CLE, @ PIT, vs. BAL, vs. CIN, vs. NFC West team, @ NFC North team) and us and the Buccaneers have the same home-away schedule (vs. PHI, vs. WAS, @ DAL, @ NYG, vs. CLE, vs. PIT, @ BAL, @ CIN, vs. NFC West team, @ NFC North team).

It's not "random" in the least bit. It's all pre-determined on a 3-year cycle for NFC teams and 4-year cycle for AFC teams. For example, next year the NFC South plays the NFC West and AFC South. Y'all schedule will look like this...

vs. SEA, vs. LAR, @ SF, @ ARI, vs. TEN, vs. JAX, @ HOU, @ IND, vs. NFC East same place finisher, @ NFC North same place finisher

While ours will look like this...

@ SEA, @ LAR, vs. SF, vs. ARI, @ TEN, @ JAX, vs. HOU, vs. IND, vs. NFC East same place finisher, @ NFC North same place finisher

Let me know if something needs more explanation.

The Saints will only lose 1 or 2 more games at most.  10-6 won’t win the NFCS.

We will win the division, historically we peak Nov-Dec and will have enough tape to figure out how to shut down NO offense, if we limit them to 20 points we got it.

That’ll pretty much be what it comes down to. Currently y’all are giving up 21.8 ppg defensively and we’re scoring 34 ppg offensively. One has to give.

I could see a split possibly happening due to playing twice in 3 weeks, happened to us last year when we played Atlanta twice in 3 weeks, the home team took both games.

The Saints, in their last 10 games, have their five toughest games at home (Rams, Eagles, Falcons, Steelers, Panthers) and five away (Vikings, Bengals, Cowboys, Bucs, Panthers).

The Panthers likewise have five home (Ravens, Bucs, Seahawks, Saints, Falcons) and five away (Steelers, Lions, Bucs, Browns, Saints).

The Falcons get the short end of the stick, as they have just THREE of their remaining NINE games at home (currently 0-2 on the road). Their three home games are vs. Cowboys, Ravens and Cardinals, whereas their away games are against Redskins, Browns, Saints, Packers, Panthers and Bucs. 

This appears to be a setup for the division title coming down to the last game, in New Orleans for the division crown, provided both teams stay the course. 

Love how you listed us as a tough team for the saints when they beat our ass 3 times last year like it was nothing
