Should Carr not play this week, we’re looking at a matchup of rookie quarterbacks in Nix and Rattler in this contest. While one would look at the Saints and say “hey, they scored 27 points last week” but a closer look takes the shine off that somewhat. Of the Saints’ points, seven came off a punt return while two other drives started within the Tampa Bay 30-yard line and led to 10 points. In the second half, they were unable to do anything as far as putting points on the board. Now, they have to face a Denver team that has been pretty solid on the defensive side of the ball this season. The Broncos aren’t any great shakes offensively but they had won three straight before falling to the Chargers. Throw in that Olave and Shaheed are out for New Orleans and the weapons are a little thin for the Saints. Look for Denver to go on the road and rely on their defense to come up with the victory in this contest.
