My contention is that the Saints are not nearly as dominant
as what the public thinks they are on the road playing top ranked talent, and
in open air stadiums. They have played only
one playoff team on the road in an open air stadium, and lost (GB). Even against mediocre opponents on the road their
performance dropped off significantly, and add the open air stadium factor,
they get even worse.
Overall scoring:
The Saints are behind the league leading Packers in total
pts scored by only 13 pts for the season.
In the SuperDome:
·
@ home the Saints average 41.6 ppg
Saints away from
the SuperDome
·
They average 27.25 pts per game on the road. (14.35 less pts per game than @ home)
·
In open air stadiums they average 25.8 ppg (15.8
ppg less than @ home)
·
At home, their average scoring margin is +22.6
pts
·
Away their average scoring margin is +2.75 pts
(a difference of almost 20 pts per game)
·
In open air stadiums, the Saints scoring margin
is +1.4 (that is against 5 teams with only 2 teams with winning records: Tennessee and Green Bay)
In
open air stadiums:
·
The Saints are 3-2 for a combined score of 129-122
(average score of 25.8 to 24.4)
·
The Saints have played only 1 playoff team
away/open air: Green Bay and Lost 37-42
·
They average 25.8 ppg in open air stadiums (vs
Green Bay, Jacksonville, Carolina, Tampa Bay, Tennessee.)
·
Only 1 of the Saints last 10 games were played
in an open top stadium, and not counting that game; the Saints averaged 36.7
ppg, and that one game away/outdoors?
Tennessee where they hung on to win 22-17.
Vs Quality teams:
·
On the road Vs. Top 10 pass defenses, top 10
defenses, or vs top 10 pass offenses the Saints are: GB L 34-42, Jacksonville W
23-10, STL L 21-31, Atlanta W 26-23, 2-2 with a negative combined score of 104 to 106 (ave. score of 26 to 26.5).
