The Saints (3-2) grabbed their biggest win yet of the 2023 season, beating the Patriots 34-0. The Saints defense grabbed two interceptions to help out a two-touchdown performance from Derek Carr. Alvin Kamara finished the day with 80 yards and one touchdown. The New Orleans D was all over New England, letting up just 156 total yards of offense on the day.
The Texans (2-3) saw their two-week winning streak ended in a two-point loss against the Falcons. CJ Stroud passed for 249 yards and a touchdown, but the Texans struggled to get a run game going. Tight end Dalton Schultz scored the only touchdown of the game for Houston, and while the Texans shut down Bijan Robinson, they struggled against Kyle Pitts and Drake London on the defensive side. Stroud remains in contention for an OROY award.
While the Saints put together a complete performance against the Patriots, the Texans, at home as underdogs, are too hard to pass up here at +2.5.
