this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Plus an easy game against San Fran You mind explaining why SF is an easy win? Have you seen them in action or do you just assume that they pretty much suck?...

Home dogs historically are 75% beating the spread. I don't know if the positive historical trend has any bearing on the future, but it might be time to drop a few quid on this one.

good point, but before you drop those quid, keep this in mind:
In the last three years, the Saints are 12-13 against the spread as an underdog, 4-10 ATS at home, and 2-3 ATS as a home underdog of 3.5 to 7 points (they are currently 4-point underdogs). Of course, the X factor in this game is that it is the first game back in the Superdome, which I believe will give us the emotional edge. |

One can't really go by what the Hazbeen teams had done. During his tenure we had home losing seasons each year save for the playoff team his first season; and most definitely disregard last season where no matter where we called home, we were away. His undisciplined attitude rubbed off on the team and they couldn't stay focused at home. This is going to be a completely different year.
