Ross Jackson said he was on a plane to LA for the game tonight and it was packed with Saints fans. The Rams' stadium, SoFi, is notorious for hosting large numbers of opposing fans, often in numbers greater than their own fans.

I think it's huge to have Olave back for this game.

Everything points to a Saint's loss tonight. That why I'm picking the Saints to cover at least, if not win outright.

If our defense shows, we have a punchers chance.

It's all on the Lines tonight. Double team #99 on offense and pressure Stafford on defense.

Not sure exactly what's been going on with Aaron Donald, but his numbers have been way down over the past seven games. He's only managed 2.5 sacks and 10 QB hits over that stretch. These are well below his career averages. I'm wondering if the injuries he endured last season, forcing him to miss six games, have somehow affected his effectiveness.

Maybe one team or the other scores 70 points in a rout. Or the whole thing ends in a 17-17 tie. All possibilities are on the table because of the wench that is Thursday Night Football.

Stupid greedy NFL. Risk losing NFL players due to lack of recovery time--

Let's not forget that the players make 48.8% of all the revenues that the league generates. The players depend upon that greed to keep bringing in ever increasing paychecks with the ever skyrocketing caps.
