If Springs was shelved again for a 2nd week in a row, I'd have less confidence. However, the Front 4 will be lacking a key cog (Taylor at 100%), and will have problems putting pressure on Drew Brees. The defense needs to continue to step up.

The Saints defense did give up oodles of yards to the Bucs, including 146 on the ground. But, Portis/Betts isn't putting much fear into opponents thus far, and Campbell looks like prey on the plains, waiting to be picked off by neighboring lions, tigers, hyenas, buffalo, etc.

As much as I'd like to use 6 of the last 7 home openers to my advantage, I just can't this week.

Saints 24
Redskins 9
