9 point dog
 
Wow... been a very long time time since anyone has been favored by this much over us..
I guess Vegas thinks we are as bad as our record

I may be inclined to take the +9... I hope it goes to 10.

If I would finally take a bet on the Saints. This would be it, but then I would loose that one with a score like this Saints 31 bay 3

may not be enough. pack d is much improved, pack o is deadly against the mentally and physically challenged.

I know I'm grasping at straws here, but I kinda wonder if this might be one of those games where Vegas kinda slyly moves people's money away from them, sets them up for a fall, by making the bet that LOOKS REALLY GOOD and casual people jump on it, but it isn't really what's gonna go down. Where Vegas has sorta looked at the game and figured it out. and knows it will be a closer game than people think, and is trying to use it to get the people's money.

People bet on the Packers and the points, thinking OMG, Packers rule, Saints suck, it will be a blowout -- then the Saints upset or they don't lose by the points, and Vegas wins. I smell something here. That is a lot of points to have the Saints down by, given the team's history and point totals, even THIS YEAR. But to a casual fan, Joe Schmoe betting in Vegas, it sounds like an awesome bet, to take Green Bay by 10. They're gonna crush the Saints, right? The Packers have been scoring in the mid 20s this year -- do people here really think the Saints are gonna score less than 10 or 14 in this game? Really?

I'm just hoping the Packers are unprepared because they're busy whining about losing that game against the Seahawks and they think they don't have to worry about us because we "suck" this year. It's kinda 50/50... either the Packers will be out to prove something or they'll be overlooking us and unprepared.

When was the last time we lost by more than 8? Seems like forever that we weren't at least within one score from tying or winning the game...

My sentiment or the fellows in Vegas who get paid for this SHAT...

Give me the Pack -9. Horrible to think this way, but the dogs need dogfood, you know...

I agree that the Saints being a 9 point underdog may be a reach, but Vegas may be on to something here. At least in theory, they may be thinking the Packers will come out strong and the Saints may have given up on their season. I personally think this will be a close game, but I am seriously the worst predictor of sporting events in the history of mankind, so who knows.

Well, now, at least, we know what a COACH is worth with respect to odds...

I'll take the Saints +9 all-day-long ... that's a lot of points to give most any NFL team, let alone one with Drew Brees.

Current line has the Saints +7.5. But, even at that number, as someone who has made a wager or two, it seems like Vegas is BEGGING gamblers to take the Saints. Caution is what I reccomend. However, Stanford +3.5, Saints +17.5, Patriots +6, looks like a good 10 point teaser. I'm personally just going to be watching as a fan and hoping for what I see as a miracle. WHO DAT!
