It is no secret that the New Orleans Saints are heavy underdogs on Sunday afternoon against the Washington Commanders, but how heavy a question is that?
According to surveys of Pickwatch97% of experts expect the Saints to drop Sunday’s game against the Commanders. This is the fourth highest deal of the week.
The only ones higher were the Baltimore Ravens vs. the New York Giants, the Cincinnati Bengals vs. the Tennessee Titans, and the Minnesota Vikings vs. the Chicago Bears.

But doubt does not come from nowhere. With Derek Carr out, the Saints will turn to the efforts of Jake Haener to take on Washington. On top of that, the commanders’ hot offensive will be difficult to stop.
There is a world in which New Orleans is finding a new offensive rhythm under Haener. If the Saints want to prove the skeptics wrong, they should hope that they are. This world.
