AAA's Week 1 10* NFLX TOTAL OF THE YEAR (+$9,000 NFL LAST SEASON!) - Opening Night!
(NFL) New Orleans vs. New England,
Total: 39.50 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
This is a 10* Week 1 NFLX TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the UNDER between the New Orleans Saints and the New England Patriots.

What's the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of these two teams? We immediately gravitate towards the two future Hall Of Fame QB's in Drew Brees and Tom Brady, a couple of the best gun-slingers of all time. Brady of course is suspended for the first four games of the season, but is able to participate in the preseason without any issues. He'll see little if any time today. That's the same thing for Brees as well.

New Orleans: The Saints finished 7-9 and third in the tough NFC South last year. Clearly New Orleans needed to make some moves on the defensive side of the ball, so its first pick in the draft was DT Sheldon Rankins out of Louisville.

New England: For the first four weeks it will be all about "managing" the game for Jimmy Garoppolo, who clearly won't be asked to do too much, while also required to minimize any costly mistakes. The preseason will be all about getting Garoppolo and the rest of the team prepared for the first four weeks.

The bottom line: This is a game which will be played almost entirely by back-ups and wannabes. Both teams have a lot of different things to work and focus on, but actually winning the game isn't one of them. This is obviously a meaningless contest for both the Saints and Patriots. We think special teams and defensive play grind this one down to a lower-scoring UNDER.
