00:00Meanwhile, great job by the New Orleans Saints.
00:05Very surprising start for them.
00:07Not just winning, but winning and blowing teams out.
00:09This week, they get the Philadelphia Eagles.
00:11It's been that kind of season, not just for the Eagles, but for everyone else.
00:14If you're a favorite in the NFL, beware, you're probably going down.
00:18This week, the Saints are two and a half point favorites, Vinny, as they take on Philadelphia.
00:23And the total is 49 and a half.
00:25And I think the odds, the reason why they are what they are here is because the Saints
00:30simply over the last two, three games, you know, even dating back to last year, Vinny,
00:34they did not show this at all.
00:37So I guess I would ask you, is what they've shown even close to legitimate, averaging
00:41like 45 points a game?
00:43Well, I think the Panthers game may not be a surprise because how bad that defense is.
00:48The Cowboys game was a surprise, but maybe the Cowboys defense is not what it was last
00:54year.
00:56The Eagles defense has stunk so far with Vic Fangio.
00:58They have a lot of trouble stopping the run, which the Saints have been doing at a smash
01:02level here with Alvin Kamara to start.
01:04That's what's happened here.
01:06The Saints have rediscovered play action.
01:08Kamara's running well.
01:09Derek Carr's been in uncomfortable situations.
01:12He's throwing downfield with confidence, Rasheed Shaheed, and Chris Hlawe.
01:17So this is going to be a very fun game to watch.
01:19There'll be a lot of points here.
01:20I think A.J.
01:21Brown not being on the other side.
01:23The Eagles are going to have to compensate for that, but I expect it to be a high scoring
01:26game.
01:27The best number I feel confident about here is that total.
01:30I think there's enough defensive lapses on both teams with these quarterbacks playing
01:35well that I think you'll see it go up, but I do actually like the Eagles than this one.
01:40I think this is a little bit of a gut check type game for the Saints to say, OK, how good
01:45are we at this point?
01:46But look at Jalen Hurts.
01:48I think he's the factor here that changes the game with his running ability, and I think
01:52we saw that become a big factor last week.
