Sharps and NFL experts are aligned on a best bet to open Week 7 when Sean Payton returns to New Orleans.
Thursday Night Football sets up a unique spot between the Denver Broncos and New Orleans Saints. Scheduled to kick off at 8:15 p.m. on Oct. 17, the matchup features a banged-up Saints club — and one that looks a lot different than the unit that started the season 2-0 in flying colors.
The Broncos, led by quarterback Bo Nix, boast a 3-3 record, while the Saints, spotlighted by running back Alvin Kamara, are looking to break a four-game drought.
Oddsmakers have set the spread with the Broncos -3, and the total over/under line is pegged at 37 points.
Both teams are heading into this matchup with plenty to prove, offering intriguing opportunities for bettors.
