NFL.com Game Preview ESPN Game Preview Saints vs. Ravens | Week 7 Preview (2:35) Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks preview the Saints at Ravens Week 7 matchup. Ultimate Game Previews: Saints at Ravens (2:42) Prisco and Quinn Previewing the Saints and Ravens in Week 7. Unstoppable Force Saints Face Immovable Object Ravens We’re about to enter Week 7 and the Baltimore Ravens defense has not allowed a second-half touchdown this season. The same defense just set a single-game franchise record with 11 sacks of poor Marcus Mariota. With the 21-0 shutout win over the Titans, the Ravens improved to 4-2 straight up and against the spread. Their Week 7 opponent, New Orleans, is coming off its bye. The Saints are 7-3 straight up and 8-2 against the spread in their last 10 games after the bye, but just 3-7 SU and 5-5 ATS when playing on the road after the bye. Baltimore opened as a 2-point home favorite, but that has grown to BAL -2.5 as bettors believe the Ravens defense can slow the Saints. New Orleans’ moneyline is +114 and the point total is 50. @SDS No demands whatsoever and still mad respect for SDS and the Moderators here, but I still just would like to repeat that this should be pinned. Yes, it is not Bills related, but we obviously like talking football here and it is nice to have a forum for big games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playoff implications matter from here on out. I think the following order has more interest than the Saints Ravens. 1 New England @ Chicago 2 Cincinnati @ Kansas City 3 Los Angeles R @ San Fran ** 4 Carolina @ Philadelphia 5 New Orleans @ Baltimore 5 Minnesota @ New York J ** CJ Bethard Pats v Bears lost IMO a lot of its luster as Mack I don’t think will be playing. (He hsnt practiced all week) Take away pressure on Brady and he will carve that D up like a Thanksgiving Day Turkey.

If the Flacco that played against the Browns shows up, the Ravens are cooked. To me the bigger matchup in this game is the Saints defense vs the Ravens Offense. What units will show up? Browns D is pretty damn good! If that team ever got competent coaching they be very hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 NFL Week 7: Previews and Analysis of Each Sunday Game by Andy Benoit 2 hours ago SAINTS AT RAVENS, 4:05 P.M., FOX The Ravens, who have allowed the fewest points per game, love to rush five and play zone coverage with six. This is commonly called a “fire zone.” The Saints, who have scored the most points per game, have two staple plays that naturally attack fire zones: slant routes, where top receiver Michael Thomas excels, and backfield screens, which running backs Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara execute extremely well. Slants and screens get the ball underneath, away from that fifth Baltimore pass rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 Week 7 NFL Score Predictions: A Guide to Best Games, More Saints (4-1) at Ravens (4-2): 4:05 p.m. ET, Fox Point spread: BAL -2.5 | Matchup quality: 80.9 (of 100) Mike Triplett's pick: I'm tempted to pick a loss here for the Saints since they're on the road and facing the NFL's No. 1 defense. But I can't bet against Drew Brees accomplishing something he wants to add to his career bucket list in felling the Ravens, the only team he has never beaten in his 18-year career. And the Saints actually have been very good outdoors lately, with a 5-2 record over the past two years. Expect Brees to lean on his RB duo of Alvin Kamaraand Mark Ingram to get this one done. Saints 25, Ravens 22 Jamison Hensley's pick: The Ravens are coming off a franchise-record 11 sacks, but they'll be hard-pressed to get to Brees. He gets rid of the ball quicker than anyone in the league, which creates a big problem for Baltimore. Since the start of the 2015 season, the Ravens are 11-17 (.392) when recording two or fewer sacks in a game. Saints 30, Ravens 27 FPI win projection: BAL, 60.4 percent. Brees is second in the league with a 79.2 Total QBR this season, but he goes on the road to face a Ravens defense that has allowed the lowest Total QBR in the league (44.2). The Ravens lead the league in defensive efficiency and are allowing an NFL-best 8.5 points per game at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
