Drew Brees has never beaten the Ravens. It’s the last team in the NFL that can say that. This is likely his last chance to do so and has a good enough team to pull it off. The lone issue is he’s in Baltimore where the Ravens are always tough to beat. They have the #1 defense in football and a battle-tested offense that won’t be in awe of the Saints defense.
NO 20, BAL 26
Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins
These two teams tend to always play close games. It’s been a weird part of that rivalry for a long time. However, the matchups just don’t favor the Redskins right now. Their passing game is banged up and the Cowboys defense is rounding into one of the best in the league. Unless they can stop Ezekiel Elliott, it could be a long day for Washington.
DAL 27, WAS 17
Los Angeles Rams at San Francisco 49ers
The 49ers gave a spirited effort last week in Green Bay but came up short. It’s for that reason they shouldn’t be overlooked in this game either. Division games can be unpredictable. That said the Rams offense is humming and the San Francisco defense is simply undermanned. Unless C.J. Beathard can put up some points, this feels inevitable.
