1. The Saints win their ninth straight game

This prediction is another surprising one, but it’s an exciting one nonetheless. The New Orleans Saints could be on their way to winning 9 straight games and the only thing standing between them is the Philadelphia Eagles. Even with them playing the former Superbowl Champions, they’re still the ones we’re talking about. At least, we Saints fans are talking about them.

Regardless, the Saints have proven they’re more than the hype. This 2018 squad is one of the most complete teams in the league. Not only do they have a star quarterback but a talented o-line, a dynamic running back duo and easily one of the best receivers in football. Add that with a much-improved defense full of both experienced veterans and young guys who learned quick. Let’s not forget about their special teams unit, too.

Overall, the 2018 Saints are poised for greatness. As trivial as it might seem, facing off against Philly is just a small step. They’re so close to clinching a playoff spot and hopefully, their ticket to the NFC Championship. Maybe even the Super Bowl but right now, they’re worried about beating the Eagles.

Last week’s performance should give them all they need. Every time the Eagles would move forward, they also find a way to go two steps back. As long as the Saints stay confident and pressure Wentz, they’re almost guaranteed a win.
