NEW ORLEANS, LA – OCTOBER 26: Aaron Rodgers /

This is one game that Who Dat Nation will have circled on the calendar for sure. A trip to Lambeau field is always a special game. Moreover, beating the Green Bay Packers on the road is a tough task. Even more, the Saints will more than likely be huge underdogs in this game. Even with the two game winning streak.

The Green Bay Packers are still one of the favorites in the NFC once again. In fact, in 2016 the offense was ranked in the top five in the league averaging 27 points a game. Furthermore, the total offense was in the top ten as well. The Saints should be able to put up some points though. Green Bay’s pass defense is 31st out of 32. Watch an air assault by Drew Brees and company. He may end up tossing it over 50 times in the game.

Unfortunately, the turnovers will end up biting them. The home crowd ends up being the difference. All things considered, the Saints play admirably but fall a bit short. The game ends up being a nail biter but the Packers survive.

Final: Packers 24 Saints 23
