MNF 10* BEST! (2-0 YTD)
(NFL) New Orleans vs. Las Vegas, 09/21/2020 8:15 PM, Score: 24 - 34
Total: 51.50 | -115.00 Under
Result: Loss
I'm playing on NO/LV UNDER the total. Brady took some criticism for poor play in his Tampa debut. However, I believe that the Saints defense deserves the credit. This New Orleans defense is loaded and they'll give a lot more QBs trouble than just Brady. Of course, the Saints offense is also dangerous. However, they do mix in a healthy amount of running plays (ran the ball 34x in Week 1) which helps to keep the clock moving. As for the Raiders, you know that they're also going to run the ball with regularity. Yes, they got into a high-scoring game against Carolina. Scoring points figures to be a lot more difficult for them this week though, which means that they're going to have to improve defensively if they want to compete. After scoring 30 in their opener last season, the Saints managed just nine points in their road opener, at LA. That game stayed well below its high O/U line. I believe that this one will also prove lower-scoring than most will be expecting.
