The Raiders are unfortunately on a down turn… The Saints on
the other hand are on a upswing having won 2 of their last 3 games to get to
one game under .500. So what will happen as the two teams going in different directions?
But just as the Saints stopped the Atlanta Falcons dreams of a perfect season.
So shall the Oakland Raiders step up to the plate and do what is right at home
and beat the Saints and get a moment to shine in the sun. This is a winnable
game for the Raiders and hopefully they are up for the task. Carson Palmer can
pick apart the Saints defense and win a shootout with Drew Brees. But we will
have to see on Sunday for that wont we???....
Game #10 – New
Orleans Saints at Oakland Raiders
Offense: NO B/OAK B+:
Both of these offenses are hot and rolling. This says that this will be a
high scoring game. But the defenses will get some stops that’s why I stopped at
28. But this will be a game that will see both starting QB’s throw for over 300
yards and will throw for multiple TD’s.
But the thing that is going to determine this game will be both teams
running games because I think that the Raiders can slow down the Saints running
game. And I also think that this will be a game in which the young Raiders RB’s
can shine against this Saints defense that hasn’t been as good as in recent
years. So look for a big day from the running game…
Defense: NO C/OAK C-:
Now once again this is a area where both teams have the personnel to get it
done on the defensive side of the ball. But neither team’s defense has really
lived up to the hype this season. I think in this game the Saints wont be able
to move the ball against this Raiders defense on the ground and Drew Brees will
be forced into a couple of mistakes throwing the ball. The Saints defense will
not be as effective and therefore will allow for the big day that I spoke of in
the previous paragraph. This will be a fun game to watch with plenty of ball
flying around so I know I will be tuning in…
Final Score: Raiders
28, Saints 21
