Expert Monday Night Football Analysis: The Saints have dropped two straight at home but their overall body of work at home can’t be overlooked. With blue-chip signal caller Drew Brees (95.9 passer rating) the Saints are 17-2 in their last 19 outings at the Superdome. The Ravens have played their usual brand of hard-hitting defense but their secondary has looked shaky (20th defensive passer rating). 6’7″ Saints tight end Jimmy Graham will be uncoverable and Brees’s ability to make plays outside of the pocket will thwart the Ravens quick pass-rush. Ravens vs Saints Betting Odds Total is at 42.0 points at BOVADA.LV

Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco (90.7) has benefited from the explosive receiving combination of Steve Smith and Torrey Smith but Flacco will not have enough ammo to top the Saints on their turf. This should be a playoff type of atmosphere and Brees will turn in a brilliant performance with his team backed into a corner. Bet the Saints to cover the short spread in a shootout.
