Summary:
Early in the season each team has shown a prolific offense and a terrible defense. This game could be an old fashioned shootout with the last team in possession winning the game. New Orleans has dominated this match-up in recent memory winning 15 of the last 20 head to head games. Ultimately I like New Orleans at home by a field goal.
