Pete Prisco picks Saints over Eagles
We are doomed, even though his reasoning is spot on
The Saints are the only team in the NFC playoffs ranked in the top* 10 in the league in both total offense and defense. Yet here they are on the road as an underdog. I think that's a mistake. Yes, the Eagles have done some really good things on offense with Nick Foles, but they finished last in the league in pass defense. Drew Brees and his receivers have to be salivating at the idea of facing that secondary. The Saints have never won a playoff game as a true road team in five tries. That's concerning. So is the fact that they are playing outside. They've struggled at times in the weather with this offense. But I think the fact that the Eagles' defense is so bad against the pass will offset that. I will take Brees over Foles in a shootout. Remember, this is the first postseason game for Foles. That matters. Prisco's Picks - Week 18 - CBSSports.com |
