re: Herd thinks both Falcons and Saints

I think a game will separate them either way. I think the winner has 10 or 11 with wc getting 9 or 10.
Posted in the o/u thread that as of opening day last year teams with 13+ wins repeated that 3/32 times with all 4 teams who did it in 11 falling short last year. Now 3/36. Combine that with the NFC south history and falcon fans looking for another runaway will likely be disappointed. It's just insanely hard to win huge numbers of games in consecutive years.

It is very hard to win a huge number of games in consecutive years, but the NFC South has the extreme benefit of playing the AFC East this year. Outside of New England, nobody in the AFC East is a threat.
I'm an idiot and listed the wrong stuff, but we get to face the NFC West, but Arizona and St. Louis are locks for W's.
The Falcons and Saints are so much better than Carolina and Tampa Bay that it's not even funny. They will struggle against teams like St. Louis and Arizona, but I fully believe that the Saints and Falcons should win those at least by 10.
ETA: Outside of 2009 (When Matt Ryan was injured for a game and a half), the Falcons have won 10+ games every season since 2008. New Orleans has 10+ wins in every season since 2008 except 2008 and last year. Between the other two NFCS teams, Tampa is the only one that had a season with 10+ wins and that lone season came in 2010.

I definitely don't think the Falcons win 13. I like to think most falcon fans would say the same. Schedule is just too rough.
