Thanks to the NFL scheduling formula, the New Orleans Saints already know who all of their 2023 opponents will be — well, except for one. We’re hours away from finalizing the slate of games. Their final remaining opponent will be either the Los Angeles Rams or the Arizona Cardinals, depending on which team finishes in third place within the NFC West.
So stay tuned for an update. Because the Saints finished in third within the NFC South, they’ll face same-ranked teams from the NFC East, NFC West, and the AFC East. They’ll also play the entire NFC North and AFC South in addition to their usual two-game series with their NFC South division rivals.
So which teams does that include? Here are all of the squads the Saints will face in 2023, plus those two pests out west:
