Week 3: Saints at Broncos

It doesn't get any easier for the Saints this week as they travel to Denver to take on the 2-0 Broncos.

Denver is one of the highest scoring teams in the league and had an exciting win last week against San Diego with a late 2-point conversion. The Denver offense will test the still injury affected Saints defense.

This week the Saints defense will be without Scott Fujita, Aaron Glenn and Antwan Lake. The good news is that safety Roman Harper and cornerback Randall Gay are listed as probable. Even better news is that cornerback Mike McKenzie wasn't listed on the injury report.

Look for a shoot-out game with the Saints trying to show some sort of running game. The defense will try to pressure Jay Cutler into making a mistake or two and special teams could be a big factor, since both offenses can move the ball up and down the field.

Prediction:
Saints 33
Broncos 30
