NFL odds, Week 3: New Orleans open as more than touchdown favorites over Cardinals

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I hope the game is a carbon copy of the '09 Divisional Playoffs game!! Not much love for the Cardinals. The Arizona Cardinals will head on the road and take on the New Orleans Saints. Vegas opened their betting line ...

NFL odds, Week 3: New Orleans open as more than touchdown favorites over Cardinals

Not much love for the Cardinals.


The Arizona Cardinals will head on the road and take on the New Orleans Saints. Vegas opened their betting line and the Cards are not given much of a shot. To open the week of betting, the Saints were favored by 7.5 points. The over/under for scoring opened at 48.5 points.

Since the open, the line has already moved. One sports book has the line now at -9 in favor of the Saints, while most of the others moved in the Cards' direction, holding currently at seven points even.

So far, Arizona is 2-0 against the spread. As 4.5 point underdogs in Week 1, they lost by only three. Last week at home, Arizona was a one-point underdog. Of course, they won outright, rallying to a 25-21 victory.

If the line ends at higher than seven, I would take those points and wager on Arizona, who is proving to be a tough team. They appear to be a team that will keep games close, regardless of whether they win or lose.

I'd take 7.5 points all day long.

With all of our injuries on defense and our recent offensive struggles (relative I know), we'll be fortunate to win this game.

Take the points. Until Brees et al. get their acts together in the red zone this game may be a trap.

I was more worried about the Saints losing to the Bucs than I am of them losing to the Cardinals.

38-17 Saints

If we play like we did last week this will be a tough game.

Drew MUST solve his INT problem or its going to be a long season.

I think the cards will score a bit more on that carpet. But we'll pull out the win...

Saints 27
Cards 24

Agree with 300P and 100R

There are much better plays this week than this game. Take the Seahawks with a teaser instead.
