I don't really have a great field on this one yet... maybe lean NO by line only, but I do think of all the teams NO could have drawn detroit probably the worst for them.

saints were on the road last year, big difference

and the lions are the BEST draw for the Saints

a one dimensional offense that cant control clock

True the saints can only win games vs teams with weak defenses BUT then again LIONS lost to 2nd string of packers !

and it was a balmy spring like day in GB in Jan !

but 10 1/2 points is too much to give this new hungry lions team !

Sainst did dumb thing last game leaving Brees in to pad passing yards to stay #1 ahaed of brady

look at thier last 3 games of year vs losers @ vikings 42 - 20 wasting offensive fire power could have won and covered with 30 points thats 12 points of offense wasted and hundreds of yards of offense

next game at home vs Falcons 46 - 16 oMFG

only a 7 1/2 chalk could have done it with 24 points

then the big losers panthers 45 - 17 Cmon - man

133 points scored in 3 str8 games only allowed 53 that means they outsored 3 oppenets by 80 points divide by 3 games = 26.6 points per game

hmmmmmmmmm - 10.5 vs lions !

Lions look like a poor man's version of the Saints.

The game one month ago was respectable, early in the fourth quarter Lions were driving for the tying score before things fell apart.

if Lions don't take bad penalties, offensive pass interference, etc., no reason this one can't stay close.

Detroits secondary is bad which their pass rush covers up. Against a quick strike offense they don't stand much of a chance to win. Saints have been unbeatable at home averaging 40 per game.

But lions can score some points too so a backdoor cover is very possible. Game is a pass for me bit I lean saints.

if the Lions can allow Matt Flynn to do what he did, imagine what Brees can do

and big difference between going on the road @ Seattle vs at home in the Dome

The Lions could only put up 17 points in their last trip to New Orleans in December. Since then, things have only gotten better for the Saints, and worse for the Lions. This Lion defense gave up 28 points to Minnesota and 27 to the Raiders. Together those two teams do not have the offense that the Saints have.

I would think people had learned to not bet against the saints at home over the past several weeks.
This is the playoffs Brees will light it up.
High scoring game and a saints cover. Not sure? tease it for the saints but I think they have this

I meant more that I could see the Lions beating them rather than any of the other options.

well saints have a few players out due to injuries one is RB Ingram

and mark my words i posted results before about teams that lost to the bucs in season of never winning a superbowl ! EXCEPTION Saints the year they won it all just didnt play final 3 games of year definetly didnt play @ Panthers they were a 9 point dog vs a losing team !

Saints and Falcons both lost @ Tampa bay early season i drew a RED X through both teams soon as that happened !
DON'T Be shocked if Saints lose to Lions ! IF thier pass rush can get to brees knock down some passes hit him and take him off his game HE is just like anyother QB in this league !

I bet we see huge line moves by sunday in every game 1 1/2 to 2 points
