NFL Week 7 Picks: Cleveland Browns Vs. New Orleans Saints
When: 1:00 p.m. Sunday, CBS
SB Nation Browns: Dawgs By Nature
SB Nation Saints: Canal Street Chronicles
Breakdown: This game could get ugly in a hurry. The Saints on offense are excellent, particularly passing the ball. Their running backs are banged up but that shouldn't be a huge issue. On defense the one-win Browns have done somewhat well but they don't have any threat on offense to counteract that. It appears QB Colt McCoy will start, once again, after a decent week last week. I don't see this game being very close.
Player to Watch: Colt McCoy. The very slight chance the Browns can follow through on this upset means Colt McCoy needs a huge day. He made a couple of mistakes last week but as a whole I was impressed in his first start against the league’s top defense. If -- and it’s a huge if -- he can get going, then this game will be competitive.
Line: Saints are 14 point favorites.
Prediction: That’s a huge line and I’ll roll with it. Take the Saints in a big win by at least two touchdowns.
