With the Saints these days I feel like I have a relative with a gambling addiction in financial turmoil who I know has placed a series of bets. I guess I want them to win the bets they have already placed because more losses will only make it worse, but I don't want them to spend another cent placing new bets and I don't think a few lucky wins prove they are well or competant or don't have a mental illness. I am happy for the Saints to win games but every time they double down and place a new bet, like extending Kamara or discussing stupid trades, I want Mickey Loomis to be committed to an inpatient treatment facility.

Salient points. The problem is, we just may be bad enough right now, to lose to the Panthers, and that relative will still be betting next week.

Another thing is that Adam Thielen is out and Dionte Johnson was traded so I think the Panthers are basically tanking at this point. If we somehow lose we then we are the worst team in the league by far. If we win it is not a ray of hope, it just means we are a bottom 5 team that can beat a tanking team that is the worst in the league. We really need to sell at the trade deadline whether we win or lose.

I will place a bet with you for the actual line on the game! The latest line is the Saints -7! Is 100.00 good enough?

You’re betting with your head, not your heart. Congratulations in advance.

That's 16 points different than your predicted spread. Didn't think you believed what you predicted. That was the point.

It’s my opinion and if I were 100% sure of any prediction I would be a trillionaire
