LOOK: The New Orleans Saints’ 2022 schedule is here

Finally: the New Orleans Saints have announced their schedule for the 2022 season, including three prime-time kickoffs and an international game in London. Expectations are high for New Orleans despite a tumultuous offseason that saw Sean Payton step down as the team’s longtime head coach, replaced by Saints defensive coordinator Dennis Allen; now, the team is looking to improve on their 9-8 record from last year and get back to the postseason.

That’s easier said than done, especially considering the hurdles in front of the Saints. They’re scheduled for nine games with teams returning from the playoffs last season, and they won’t get a chance to rest during their bye week until Week 14. Plus, the year starts out with three NFC South rivalry matchups before a long road trip overseas. A rough start to Allen’s tenure could sink their season before it has a chance to get off the ground. Still, the Saints have built an experienced team that should compete each week. Here are the games on their 2022 schedule:
