Sportsbook Websites Odds Give Saints An opportunity Due to Schedule

July 30, 2010 · By writer

The Saints are reigning Super Bowl champs and the sportsbook has them as the second choice in NFL betting at SBG to win this year’s competition.




History is against the New Orleans Saints though as only the Denver Broncos and New England Patriots have defended their Super Bowl title since the 1995 season. The schedule could help the New Orleans Saints however as they’re likely to be favored in sportsbook online probabilities in their first 10 matches this season.

A hugely determined Dallas team who’s seeking to be the first team in NFL history to play the Super Bowl at their home stadium is going to cause problems for the New Orleans Saints. The Dallas Cowboys hold the record for the most Super Bowl appearances as well as the most NFC championships, and they’re the richest team in the NFL. So they might find some resistance still between them and the 2011 Super Bowl, even if the New Orleans Saints make it from the NFC South, which they are anticipated to do.

It ought to be noted that no team has ever won back-to-back championships in this division since it started in 2002, although the New Orleans Saints are the favorite to win the NFC South. The Saints are going to have a target on their backs all year as reigning victors. The great news for the New Orleans Saints is that they’ve got one of the least difficult schedules in the NFL. They’ve got just 5 matches against squads that got to playoffs last season.

A rematch of the NFC Championship game against the Minnesota Vikings will commence the season for the New Orleans Saints. New Orleans is a four-point home favorite in that competition. History is on the side of the New Orleans Saints, although it is not going to be an easy match. Reigning Super Bowl winners starting at home have fared nicely the past few seasons.

In what figures to be a letdown spot after playing the Vikings, the New Orleans Saints will visit San Francisco in Week 2. However, the New Orleans Saints will be preferred since they’ve won the past 5 meetings against the 49ers. Week 3 is a very challenging home competition against the Atlanta Falcons and then another possible letdown competition against Carolina. The Saints have a two-game road trip that looks winnable with matches at Arizona and Tampa Bay. They then sponsor Cleveland and Pittsburgh before proceeding to Carolina. The New Orleans Saints then have their bye week prior to hosting the Seahawks. The Saints hardest match figures to be at Dallas on November 25th. They then go to Cincinnati in what will be a challenging match since the New Orleans Saints usually don’t fare well in cold weather. They then come home to sponsor St. Louis before another challenging cold weather competition at Baltimore on December 19th. Before completing at home against Tampa Bay, the New Orleans Saints then have to go to Atlanta in a game that could decide the division.
