The spread is a little bit misleading IMO. The Saints lost in one score games vs the Cards and 49ers who are both decent. They got blown out vs the Seahawks, but it was 21-0 in the first quarter in a way that probably won't happen again exactly like this:
- First drive is turnover on downs at midfield, Seahawks drive half the field for the TD (had an unnecessary roughness on what would have been a 3rd down stop).
- Second drive is a punt that Seahawks return for a TD
- Third drive is a blocked punt recovered at the 11 yard line, Seahawks punch it two plays later.
And once you're down 21-0 that's pretty much it unless you are a really great team like the Bills or Eagles. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bills win by 10 again and everybody is upset.
