2020 NFC South Predictions: New Orleans Saints
Saints Odds to Win 2021 Super Bowl: +1200
Saints Odds to Win NFC Conference: +550
Saints Odds to Win NFC South Division: +110
The Saints have won the NFC South three years in a row, and needed freakish plays in back-to-back years to knock them out of the 2017 and 2018 postseasons, while last year’s 13-3 record wasn’t good enough to keep them out of the Wild Card round and another disappointing finish.
This could be Drew Brees’ final season and the front office is preparing for that possibility, adding veterans Emmanuel Sanders and Malcolm Jenkins into the fold for immediate help.
The team was short on draft capital due to past trades, but this is a roster without a lot of needs.
2020 NFC South Predictions: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Buccaneers Odds to Win 2021 Super Bowl: +1200
Buccaneers Odds to Win NFC Conference: +700
Buccaneers Odds to Win NFC South Division: +150
There was a lot of talk about Tom Brady being washed up last season as he played alongside a limited group of skill position players in New England.
We’ll get to really put that notion to the test this season as he works with Bruce Arians to feed the ball to the likes of Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, O.J. Howard, and the returning Rob Gronkowski.
On the other side of the ball, the Buccaneers front office was able to keep Ndamukong Suh, Shaquil Barrett, and Jason Pierre-Paul in the fold to solidify the defensive line for a unit that steadily improved throughout last season.
2020 NFC South Predictions: Atlanta Falcons
Falcons Odds to Win 2021 Super Bowl: +5000
Falcons Odds to Win NFC Conference: +2500
Falcons Odds to Win NFC South Division: +800
The Falcons just haven’t been able to find that magic they were a few years ago when Matt Ryan led the team to the brink of a Super Bowl victory before that epic collapse. The team shuffled in and out a bevy of players but the roster will look largely the same.
Drafting A.J. Terrell in the first round addresses maybe the team’s biggest need – cornerback. Beyond that, this team is going to need explosiveness in the passing game, and that’s going to mean Calvin Ridley making the third-year leap alongside Julio Jones in the passing game.
2020 NFC South Predictions: Carolina Panthers
Panthers Odds to Win 2021 Super Bowl: +15000
Panthers Odds to Win NFC Conference: +7500
Panthers Odds to Win NFC South Division: +1200
A lot has changed for the Panthers in just one offseason. Coach Ron Rivera is out and Baylor offensive whiz Matt Rhule comes in. He’s tabbed Teddy Bridgewater as his quarterback, bringing in Russell Okung to protect that investment, and Robby Anderson to help stretch the field.
Defensive mainstay Luke Kuechly is out along with several other familiar faces on that side of the ball, but Rhule and co. drafted nothing but defensive players to rebuild that unit.
Obviously, there’s a lot of faith in the offensive holdovers, with Christian McCaffrey, D.J. Moore, Curtis Samuel, and Ian Thomas providing plenty of skill at their respective positions.

It’s easy to get caught up in the height a marquee free agent or compelling draft class brings with it, but football is a unique sport in that so much of a team’s success is dependent on chemistry and the players’ ability to play alongside one another and within the team system.
Peyton Manning was able to find immediate success in Denver, but Manning’s Broncos didn’t have Drew Brees and the Saints to compete with. We know what the Saints will give us, while the Bucs come with a lot more uncertainty.
Any sort of growing pains from the Bucs will allow the Saints to take control of the division, and with the hype Brady carries with him, New Orleans is a tremendous value at their current price.
