Saints - 7 @ Jaguars

[brahmabull117]

any thoughts on this play??



Road Favorites of 7- 9 points in the NFL are generally a terrible play (only winning about 65-70% of the time) but I'm still thinking about teasing this game or even playing it straight up



The jaguars had a terrible defense last year and, even though they have put up decent numbers this year, they haven't faced anybody on the same level as drew brees. New Orleans has looked fantastic since that game 1 loss... Brees is just throwing darts all over the place and the saints have scored 70 points against 2 good defenses (bears and texans)



the saints are also 14-3 on the road heading back to their superbowl winning season (6-2 last year), so they do seem to be one of the few teams that is a safe bet in situations like this



any thoughts?

I actually got -6.5 on Tuesday, I see this game as a blowout.

[mstone897]

I got it at -7. They don't have to travel too far and Jacksonville isn't exactly the loudest place to play. I'm sure New Orleans isn't thrilled with the way their defense has played and will be looking to take advantage of a rookie QB. Jaguars can't get near the Qb so far this season so Brees should have time to do work.

agreed, though 2 of the 3 opponents the saints have faced have been great offensive teams



they should play much better this week

[KapKing]

played saints -3 at -210 in a parley

[brahmabull117]

jaguars starting CB is out for this game



saints get their best receiver (Colston) and their best pass rusher (will smith) back in this game



this is a money pick for a teaser, even if the jaguars somehow keep it close, there's no way blaine gabbert can beat drew brees in a teaser

[Mrecko21]

kinda seems too easy, i cant imagine many people saying oh saints best wr and defensive player is back this week i'll take the jaguars plus 7 please,

taking a QB rookie against a good defense that can bring a lot of pressure with different schemes is a very big gamble



the only real safe play in this game is putting the saints in all your teasers, I just don't see any that Blaine gabbert can beat Drew brees if the game is close late

[hitman09]

yeah, yeah, pounding the Saints this week, next week is fading time.

[Mrecko21]

losing to the browns and seattle last yr, makes me a bit paranoid about this team,

[thebestthereis]

Jaguars cover, good luck!

[BABBA-GEE]

saints easily cover, Gabbert throws 2 INTS...I see 38-17...Saints Dominate

[yD]

This game will be more like NE-Miami week 1, than NE-Buf last week. Swallow the points. Jags suck, Saints roll.

last year was a fluke year though, I think saints win 12-13 games this year

[bigsmitty]

Agree with LT on this one-NO at -6.5. Cheers
