New Orleans Saints
While the Saints were definitely not one of the best teams last year, their offense still ranked No. 1 overall. Veteran quarterback and future Hall of Famer Drew Brees threw for 5,208 yards and 37 touchdowns for starters.
As an entity, the Saints offense recorded 6,816 yards, which broke down to 426 per game. Ranking just one step below Atlanta in scoring, the Saints averaged 29.3 point per tilt. There is not a lot here to suggest that Brees and Co. are going to stumble backwards in 2017, even minus wide receiver Brandin Cooks.
It’s worth noting that Brees has thrown for no less than 4,870 yards and 32 touchdowns since 2011. He has worked with various personnel during this period and the job always gets done. This season around, look for second-year receiver Michael Thomas to continue to thrive. He put up 92 catches for 1,127 yards and nine scores in his rookie year.
Winning more games would be the icing on the cake for the Saints this year. They certainly have the tools on offense to make it happen.
