Coming off a huge road win over the Vikings, the New Orleans Saints are hosting the undefeated Los Angeles Rams. Here are 3 bold predictions for the game.

It feels like deja vu for the New Orleans Saints. Last year, they had two exciting games against the Minnesota Vikings and the Los Angeles Rams. The same can be said about the 2018 season. After a huge victory over the Vikings, the Saints are hosting the Rams at home in Week 9.

Last season, the Rams were the ones hosting the Saints. With the situation in reverse, it gives a definite edge to the Saints. Additionally, it’s their chance to snap the Rams winning streak as the Rams did for them last year. We could also be witnessing the future NFC Championship matchup, too.

As far as Week 9 goes, this is one game you won’t want to miss. For the New Orleans Saints, it’s their chance to prove they’re the leaders in the NFC. The team has been overshadowed for years and it’s finally their time. Most notably, it’s time for Drew Brees to get another Super Bowl before he retires.

Enough about the future, let’s focus on the now. Going up against the Rams is the Saints’ chance of proving themselves, to prove that it’s their time. The team has gotten close in the past, but only has one Super Bowl victory. Hopefully, they can keep the momentum going against the Rams.

Heading into Week 9, there’s a lot to be excited about for the Saints. If they win, it could change the entire playoff picture for the NFL. Once again, let’s not get too ahead of ourselves. Here are three bold predictions when the New Orleans Saints face off against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.
