10* New Olreans +3
(NFL) New Orleans vs. Arizona, 09/13/2015 12:05 PM, Score: 19 - 31
Point Spread: 3.00 | -120.00 New Orleans (Away)
Result: Loss
The New Orleans Saints will be on the road in Arizona in Week 1, and I like New Orleans getting points. New Orleans has traditionally struggled on the road, but this game will be played indoors in a dome, and weather will not be a factor. The Saints were 4-4 on the road last year, and three of those four losses came in games decided by three points or less.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Quarterbacks - The Cardinals may be excited to have Carson Palmer back, but Drew Brees led the league in passing yards last season. The last time the two faced each other Brees threw for 342 yards and three TDs, while Palmer threw for 187 yards and a pair of interceptions.

2. Still Loaded - Sure the Saints lost Jimmy Graham and Kenny Stills, but they are still loaded on offense with Brandin Cooks, Marques Colston at receiver, and Mark Ingram and C.J. Spiller in the backfield.

3. X-Factor - The Saints have covered the spread in four of their last five road games.

Selection: This is a play on the New Orleans Saints (10*)
