Tennessee (+3.5) vs. New Orleans: You trust this defense on the road? I wouldn’t trust the Saints defense against Billy Joe Tolliver and 10 folding chairs. I’ll give Gregg Williams credit for at least failing each week in a different way. He’s tried the 4-3, the 3-4, not blitzing, blitzing, and still teams drop 400 yards on the Saints as easily as I just crushed a family size bag of Doritos.

To all of you screaming, “The Lions only scored 17 points. That’s all that matters!” The majority of the Saints best defense against Detroit involved waiting for the angry and confused Lions to set themselves on fire. If I accidentally set my curtains ablaze and my house burns to the ground I can’t call it stage one of house renovations.

The Titans are 22nd in yards per game and 21st in points so in theory they shouldn’t be unstoppable. The problem is Chris Johnson is back and the Saints give up 4.9 yards per rush. I fully expect the Saints to slow Chris Johnson and allow receivers and tight ends we’ve never heard of to look fantastic.

Tennessee on defense is middle of the pack in yards per game but sixth in points allowed. Drew Brees will look mortal, the defense will look like it always does, and the Saints will experience death by field goal.

Titans 27-24
