More MMQB: 42 Minutes of Frantic Finishes | Week 1 Takeaways: Wentz, Saquon, Belichick | Checking in on Top Draft Prospects
It’s interesting to me how the Saints are kind of lurking.
They won the NFC South four consecutive years from 2017 to ’20. Last year, even after losing Jameis Winston to a torn ACL in midseason, and in their first year post–Drew Brees, they were able to cobble together a 9–8 season. This year, they don’t have Sean Payton, either. But they still have a boatload of talent, and a lot of the infrastructure from the Payton era remains in place.
