Headline: Saints Look For Elusive First Win at Home versus San Diego
Who would have thunk it? Not me! The New Orleans Saints look to snap a miserable four game losing streak when they host a confident Chargers team coming off a win last week in Kansas City. It’s not that the Saints have been a total disaster – it is the defense that has been absolutely dreadful and not giving its offense a chance.
The longest Mardi Gras celebrations ever to take place in the city of New Orleans began last February when the Saints bested the Indianapolis Colts to win their first-ever Super Bowl down in Miami.
After watching the way the team performed last week in their preseason opener against the New England Patriots, it seems as though the hangover from those celebrations may still exist among at least a few of those players.
Two teams who probably thought they would be doing a lot better at this time will lock horns on Sunday, as the San Diego Chargers (3-4 SU, 3-3-1 ATS) play the New Orleans Saints (3-4 SU, 4-3 ATS) in an NFL contest that will kick off at 1 PM ET at Wembley Stadium (natural turf) in London.
The San Diego Chargers (3-4 SU, 3-3-1 ATS, 4-3 O/U), have alternated wins and losses in each of their last four games.
The New Orleans Saints (3-4 SU, 4-3 ATS, 4-3 O/U), have done them one better – alternating wins and losses in each of their last five games.
