Rookie WRs Who Will Outplay Their Draft Value 📈
The Saints didn’t get off to their ideal start to the season last week, but wins are wins and beating the NFL betting line is beating the NFL betting line. New Orleans trumped the Minnesota Vikings 14-9 in the opening game of the season on primetime on Thursday night and have had some extra time to prepare for this contest.
It wasn’t the most stellar start in the world for Drew Brees, but there is no doubt that 27-of-36 passing for 237 yards and a score is good enough to win a lot of games.
It was a disastrous week for Reggie Bush, who not only is going to be forced to cough up his 2005 Heisman Trophy, but he is playing poorly to start the year as well. The former USC Trojan only had two carries for 14 yards and caught five passes for 33 yards in the victory.
Disaster. That’s the only way that the Niners’ 31-6 loss at Qwest Field to the Seattle Seahawks could be described, especially after taking a 6-0 lead and dominating the first 25 minutes of the game.
Running the ball was a huge problem for San Fran, which shouldn’t be the case considering the fact that its offensive line is full of relatively recent first and second round draft choices and that Frank Gore is one of the best backs in the league. He only rushed for 38 yards on 17 carries.
Alex Smith throwing two picks against no TD passes certainly didn’t help either for an offense that only mustered 263 yards of total offense on the day.
NFL Insider Tip : The 49ers simply love facing the NFL betting line on Monday Night Football, as they’re 16-5 ATS in their L/21 attempts!
The Niners haven’t won a game in this series since 2002, losing four straight since that point. The bad news is that the Saints are 10-2 ATS over their L/12 clashes in this rivalry. The good news is that San Fran has already received its wake up call. This is a gritty team that isn’t going to be afraid of the defending champs, and head coach Mike Singletary is going to be calling this one the biggest game of the season… and he might be right.
Take the points on the NFL betting line on Monday Night Football!
