I am going to call it now: Saints carry a 3 game win streak into the bye week!

METAIRIE, La. – This will probably be one of the most universally agreed-upon predictions of the entire month. The New Orleans Saints are clearly better than their 0-2 record indicates, and they’re overdue for a victory after losing two road games in the final seconds. They’re finally at home, where their offense and defense are always more dominant, and where they went 8-0 last year. Their offense has been rolling this season. And the Minnesota Vikings are coming into this game with the NFL’s No. 32-ranked passing offense and without star running back Adrian Peterson.

I expect vast improvement from the Saints’ defense, which has underachieved so far. But even if this somehow turns into a shootout, I like Drew Brees over Matt Cassel.

All of that being said, however, the Saints have talked all week about needing to “prove it” on the field – something they haven’t done yet this season.

My prediction: Saints 34, Vikings 17.
