2017 NFL Picks, score predictions for Week 10
New Orleans Saints (6-2) at Buffalo Bills (5-3)
The New Orleans Saints are on a roll right now. They’ve tallied six straight wins, doing it in a number of ways and looking terrific in the process. Unfortunately for the Buffalo Bills, they haven’t been nearly as impressive in recent weeks.
That’s not to say the Bills have been bad by any means. As you can tell by their 5-3 record, they’re doing work this season, having pulled off their own string of strong wins while victimizing other competent teams. Unfortunately, it’s been their lack of reliable offense that has kept them from truly soaring in 2017.
Speaking of offense — the Saints have a ton of it. In fact, they’re currently second in the league in overall offense, and seem to be moving the ball with ease no matter the means of transportation. Obviously Drew Brees is doing his thing, but the combo of Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara is also producing consistently in the ground game.
It’ll be close because of the Bills’ opportunistic defense, but Brees and Co. will make enough big plays to secure the “W” in Week 10. A second-half scare, though, will keep things in perspective for the Saints.
Prediction: Saints win 24-14
