Saints Tend to Cash in as Underdogs

The New Orleans Saints are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as a betting underdog with four outright upsets in their last six games as a dog. The Saints visit the New York Giants this Sunday looking to avoid an 0-2 SU start.

Drew Brees has notoriously been a stronger quarterback at home than he has been on the road in recent years. Last season, Brees threw for just nine touchdowns and had six interceptions in eight road starts, compared with 23 touchdown passes and five interceptions at home. Brees' road passer rating of 87.7 was 24.8 points lower than his rating at home.

This game opened with the highest total on the board, and that could spell trouble for the New York Giants. In their last six games that closed with a total of 51.5 points or higher, the Giants are 0-6 SU.

On the other hand, the Giants are 10-0 SU in their last 10 games as a favorite of four points or more, with a 5-2 ATS record in their last seven such games.
