The New Orleans Saints are coming off of their BYE week and they will be taking on the Buffalo Bills. It doesn’t sound like C.J. Spiller will be playing in this game, so Fred Jackson will get a lot of the action out of the backfield for the Bills. The Bills will also have Thad Lewis taking control under center again. The New Orleans Saints should be well rested for the game. They have had a lot of time to think about that loss that they gave away to the Patriots and they will be looking to finish their game off this time around.

Bills Player to Watch: Thad Lewis

Even with the injuries at the quarterback position, the Bills have been able to keep their games competitive. Thad Lewis has been a big reason for that. Lewis has done well in the absence of EJ Manuel. He has completed 62.5 percent of his passes for 418 yards and a couple of touchdowns.
Saints Player to Watch: Drew Brees

How will the Saints bounce back after that tough loss to the Patriots. It will be up to Brees to get this team rolling out of the gate and put that game on the back burner. Brees is one of the league leaders in passing with 1958 yards passing for 14 touchdowns.

The Saints are at home and they are looking to get that bad taste out of their mouth. They are coming off of a BYE week and they will be rolling in this game. Drew Brees and the offense will have the ball moving up and down the field and the Saints will come back strong.
