For me I think it'll be the Falcons. They have a good o-line and are committed to running the ball. They only passed the ball 18 times against the Panthers. The Titans had success running the ball and I'm surprised they didn't run more seeing how close the game was.

Bucs. Their D is solid and Baker is good enough to have a 300+ 3TD day. He is also bad enough to have a 150 yard 3 INT day. Hopefully we get the bad twice. Odds are in our favor.

Atlanta. I think we sweep Carolina and Tampa and spilt with Atlanta.

I think Carolina - we have a track record of making young/rookie QB's look all pro

Even under Dennis Allen? I know that was a thing with Payton. I have a lot of confidence in this secondary.

it hasn't just been a CSP deal, it has just been history. teams we have no business not beating the brakes off of, always have a tendency of playing like a SB contender.

couple winless or 1 win Cleveland teams come to mind.

we should handle Carolina easily, but history makes me feel cautious of the game.

Atlanta will give us trouble if we can't stop the run. Their QB and D suck, but it won't matter if they are running for 5 yards a pop.

Carolina always plays us tough, but they are a bad team. The Bucs will fade.

The coaches in Atlanta are smart enough to pound the running game at us all day; unlike the Titans staff.

Falcons because of Allgeier and Bijan. It still won’t be enough.

all of them - we have the most talent and should go 5-1 or 4-2. But division opponents play each other tough because they scheme against one another year-round. unlike the jags or something who scheme against us for a week.

Yep, this is the answer. Saints have a horrible record against rookies.

The saints were so self-destructive last season and it showed up the most in the Tampa and Carolina games. You could argue the Falcons, but we swept them.

The Week 1 game they had to kick down the backdoor to win it.

You can gash the Saints run D for a big play. But you’re not gonna run it down their throat the whole game.

Not happening.

I think they can run it well enough to stay ahead of the sticks and could have drives that chew up a lot of clock, which puts more pressure on the offense to score each drive. I think it's a team that you can't afford to start out slow on offense or you'll be playing into their strengths.

Frankly I think Carolina's defense might give us trouble on offense. Saints left side of the oline is a problem and they could very well keep it close to where manlet Bryce Young burns us. We lost to this trash twice with Darnold and Mayfield at QB. It don't get worse than at.
