| Happy Friday, and welcome to the Saints Insider Newsletter for May 12, 2023. Now, you can start making your plans for this fall. The NFL released the schedule for all 32 teams, meaning we are getting a step closer to your favorite time of the year. The schedule is highlighted by three prime time games and the season opener in the Dome against the Tennessee Titans. Saints writer Luke Johnson gives you a breakdown of the 2023 schedule. Columnist Jeff Duncan weighs in on the schedule, calling it one of the easiest ones in franchise history. It’s hard to argue with that. Here’s Jeff’s column on the friendly slate the Saints have this season. And finally, here’s my annual game-by-game predictions column after seeing the schedule. Warning: I’m pretty optimistic because of how easy I think the schedule is. That’s all for today. Check back throughout the day for updates. And also be sure to check the site again on Saturday when the media will have access to Saints’ rookie mini-camp. As always, thanks for reading. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Until next time.
