Parsons' **Cards/Saints** ATS ROUT
Nick is already enjoying a strong NFL post-season having gone 3-1 (75%) with his Wild Card Weekend plays; he'll look to continue that positive momentum all the way to Super Bowl XLIV! This game has all the makings of an ABSOLUTE ROUT; find out which teams "Brings Home The Bacon"! Cards? Saints? Get the answer here!
For a number of different reasons I believe we're getting good value on the home-side in this situation:
While I believe last week's high scoring game was an aberration, Drew Brees and company will be licking their chops after having the week off to heal up some nagging injuries and after watching Aaron Rodgers shred the Cardinals depleted secondary.
Facing an Arizona defense that gave up 500 yards on two occasions this season and let the Packers rack up 403 through the air would seem to have Brees salivating.
Keep in mind that Arizona is 1-4 ATS its last five games vs. New Orleans.
On the other side of the field: The Saints (13-3) didn’t put up 51 points this season, but scored 45 or more four times in the first six weeks and at least 35 three more times in starting 13-0; although they stumbled down the stretch, I expect with the extra week off that Brees and company will come out as efficient as ever.
Remember, New Orleans is 13-3 SU its last 16 and always plays tough in front of the home town crowd; 10-3 SU its last 13 at the Superdome.
Bottom line: No need to overanalyze this one; the Saints are well-rested, get home field advantage and get to play a tired and banged up Cardinals squad; look for NEW ORLEANS to move to 4-2 ATS this season vs. teams with a winning record and for Arizona to fall to 0-2 ATS vs. NFC South division opponents!
