It's must win from a practical sense than a literal one.

Set the tone for the year and we're not just playing a lot of people's favorite out of the South, we're playing a hated divisional rival. We're opening at home?

Oh yeah, we better win. I mean, imagine the butthurt that'd emanate from people if we lose this?

Clearly not a "must win" as neither team is eliminated from the playoffs with a loss. But obviously a W is better than a L - especially in division.

I'm gonna say that >50% of the pressure is on the Saints though. So much hype around Payton coming back and a new D coordinator AND playing at home. The pressure to me is MORE on the Saints to hold serve at home. Same can/will be said about ATL later in the year when they play at home.
