New Orleans Saints: 3 Bold predictions for Week 10 vs. Bengals
1. The Saints beat the Bengals by 10+ points
Unsurprisingly, the Saints are clear favorites this week. Hell, they’re probably clear favorites for the rest of their games. Nevertheless, the team now has a chip on their shoulder and they definitely don’t intend on losing any time soon. After their huge win over the Rams, it’s only fair to predict them beating the Bengals.
This week’s prediction is a little bit different, though. Against the Bengals, I predict the Saints will beat them by at least 10 points or more. Last week, the Saints beat the Rams by 10 and before that, the Vikings by 10. It’s only fair to assume they’re going to beat the Bengals by the same margin or maybe even more.
With A.J. Green out with a toe injury, the Bengals are already at a disadvantage and their defense is playing horribly. For the Saints, it should be an easy win. Considering how many points they put up against the Rams, there’s no way they won’t outscore them by at least 10.
Even with the Bengals 5-3 record, the Saints are unmatched. Unless the game is riddled with mistakes, the Saints are almost guaranteed a win. As long as Drew Brees and company keep putting up big numbers, there’s no stopping them. Maybe they’ll get taken down by a division rival, but the Bengals won’t knock them off just yet.
