Did someone make the Saints an offer they couldn't refuse?

[bodyforlife]

If there's not a horse's head in Drew Brees' or Sean Payton's bed, how the hell can they only be favored by 3 over the 49ers?

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

Lol thought same thing off the bat. Then realized kaeperknicks like only team he plays well against is the saints lmao


Oh and take a look at brees and sean peytons record vs nfc west on the road. I remember from when they were top of the NFL they were struggling vs those teams.

I just gotta wonder how any of that stuff applies now. This Niners team is nothing like those in the past. And it's clear that Kaepernick has regressed.

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

Hmm. Kaeperknick has regressed. But history repeats itself. Probably because nfc west teams front 7s are always strong. And saints like to establish the run on the road for a 5"11 quarterback. Would make sense. But yea sanfran secondary is not good

My thoughts exactly in terms of not being sure if any trends apply now, especially with some comments afew weeks ago signalling that 49ers aren't interested in even winning anymore this season.

I would take the Niners. This Saints team has shown how it loses games despite having an elite QB. Beating Seattle doesn't make them a good team.
They definitely aren't worth 9 points if the game were at home

I could see them being double digits favorites over the Niners at the Superdome.

 

[bodyforlife]

Up to 4 1/2 and touched 5. Looks like it's getting closer to what I expected the opener to be all along (around 6). Regardless of the outcome of the game (and I doubt I'll be touching it), that original spread was a joke.

 

[chonce]

With a line like this I don't even worry about Xs and 0s.

But, it is worth noting that the line had moved with the money, so no reverse line movement (which would make me feel better about SF).

usually they are all good fronts. However since Bowman went down SF dead last front 7 in the NFL, NFL worst against the run and by a wide margin.

If Kaep goes off, that is SF's only hope. He might with the Saints D being inconsistent and sometimes just plain terrible.

Saints getting some big pieces back to the secondary tomorrow including two corners.

 

[kid31]

Niners arent good but they're not going 1-15. Someone will fall to them in San Fran, at some point.

 

[savage55]

Under is the play in this one

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

Didn't like seeing aaron lynch out. I think kaep has a good game though..not sure if it's enough to win or cover

I don't think the Browns will go 0-16 either. But there's no relevance to saying that and handicapping a game. Unless of course the strategy is just bet on them until they win. That's a good way to go broke also.

 

[OfficialSono]

No Carlos Hyde.

But if the line is moving UP in the "right direction" with the public..shouldn't that indicate that the Saints would "usually" be the right play? This game also has me scratching my head.

In addition to the fact that if you were told you could bet a team at a +3 or take a +4 1/2 or more, I think most people would take the latter. Why wouldn't you? I just thought the line was a bit off and apparently I was right (regardless of the outcome of the game).

 

[OfficialSono]

The Saints seem to be getting healthy and have put together a good run in the last 4 games the usually below par defense didn't look all that bad against Seattle and they get 3 key pieces back in the secondary today on the contrary the Niners who are struggling in general seem to be getting worse and to compile their misery 3 of the better players miss out for them today with injury.


It should be a blowout.


Saints 37 - 10.
