Barry Hirstius: New Orleans Saints vs. Houston Texans 2019 Season Opener: 5 Bold Predictions

I think this will be a nail biter. We should blow them out, but we most likely will come out the gate rusty and let them linger around in the game.

Not so sure. Brees has had one series in preseason and looked to be in Pro Bowl form. Also consider that they basically ran the 2018 playbook of Thomas, Kamara, Thomas, Kamara. If the offense can play like that on Monday and open up the playbook, a little bit of defensive rust shouldn't be a big issue.

I never know what I’m going to get from the Saints Week 1.

My bold prediction.....Murray will have less than 10 yards. Heard it here first folks

Good thing for us ... we have ELITE tackles.

Even if he would be half of what he was he'd still be better than most.
Big, strong, physical and relentless. Never stops. I usually watch a couple Texans games every year just to see him play.

Depending on the reason that might be okay.
