The Saints were concerned when their quarterback, Drew Brees, had a cracked rib and a collapsed lung injury while facing the San Francisco 49ers last Monday. There’s a possibility that Brees might be sent to the Injury Reserve slot, and Jamie Winston will replace him temporarily.
The oddsmakers siding on the Saints’ abilities gave 4.5 point favorites to these teams. Many bettors find them a good pick despite the doubts of lacking a reliable quarterback player.
Green Bay Packers
With Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams’ synergy in their fake passes, the Green Bay Packers will eventually rise. After their synergy’s performance was proved against the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday, the team might need to work more in their passing attacks and uneven plays, which can give them advantages in their later games.
The team remains on the 5th rank in the NFL leaderboard, with seven wins and two losses, and will face Indianapolis Colts this coming Sunday.
