The 2017 NFL Schedule is out, and here’s a look at the Saints slate for the upcoming season, with the home games in bold:
Sep. 11 at Minnesota Vikings (Mon) 6:10 PM
Sep. 17 New England Patriots 12:00 PM
Sep. 24 at Carolina Panthers 12:00 PM
Oct. 1 at Miami Dolphins (London) 8:30 AM
Oct. 8 BYE
Oct. 15 Detroit Lions 12:00 PM
Oct. 22 at Green Bay Packers 12:00 PM
Oct. 29 Chicago Bears 12:00 PM
Nov. 5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 12:00 PM
Nov. 12 at Buffalo Bills 12:00 PM
Nov. 19 Washington Redskins 12:00 PM
Nov. 26 at Los Angeles Rams 3:05 PM
Dec. 3 Carolina Panthers 12:00 PM
Dec. 7 at Atlanta Falcons (Thu) 7:25 PM
Dec. 17 New York Jets 12:00 PM
Dec. 24 Atlanta Falcons 12:00 PM
Dec. 31 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers 12:00 PM
What’s Good about this Schedule: If this team is going to be in the playoff mix, two of the final three are at home, games against the Jets and a huge game Christmas Eve against the Falcons.
What’s Bad about this Schedule: Three of the first four games on the road, including games at Minnesota in prime-time and a game in London. It doesn’t get much harder than that.
