The New Orleans Saints want to get back in the playoffs in the worst way in 2016 after missing out on the postseason in each of the last two seasons. After going 7-9 last season, can Drew Brees and company reach their stated goal or will the 2016 season produce another year of being mired in mediocrity?

2016 Regular Season Win Total Odds
Over/Under 7 Wins
Analysis: I’ve got Drew Brees and company losing home games against Carolina, Seattle and Denver while dropping road games against Kansas City, Carolina, Carolina, Tampa Bay, Arizona and Atlanta to finish at 7-9 and Push against their regular season win total odds.
NFC South Division Odds
+800
Analysis: The New Orleans Saints went 7-9 last season to finish in third place behind Carolina and Atlanta a year ago.

NFC Championship Odds
+2500
Analysis: The Saints are no doubt, offering a huge return as a +$2500 pick to win the NFC Championship, but that’s because, it’s not going to happen unless hell freezes over.
Super Bowl 51 Odds
+5500
Analysis: Can you picture New Orleans getting past Carolina, Seattle, Green Bay or Arizona in the NFC? If they do somehow manage to reach Super Bowl 51 to represent the NFC, could the Saints ever beat New England Patriots, Pittsburgh or Cincinnati? Hell to the no! Save your long shot Super Bowl pick for another team with more legitimate hopes – and an actual defense!
