Free Betting Pick: New Orleans Saints -9
The New Orleans Saints are coming off a tough loss at home against the San Francisco 49ers, but the one positive is their offense was moving the ball without much of a problem against one of the better defenses in the NFL. The Saints offense should have no problem repeating their success against the Colts defense as Drew Brees has this team playing at a high level, especially considering Indianapolis will have a tough time matching up with Michael Thomas. The Saints will need to get Alvin Kamara involved in the offense as he has been quiet this season, and I expect Sean Payton to continue working Kamara and Taysom Hill into the game plan. The Colts offense has been up and down this season, but this will be more so about the Saints finding their footing after giving up 48 points last week. Final Score Prediction, New Orleans Saints win and cover ATS 35-21.
