New Orleans Saints vs Denver Broncos: Bold Predictions for the Game

It’s a pretty common occurrence for fans and analysts to make bold predictions about a game or season. If the prediction doesn’t come true, then that’s OK - you said it was bold! If it DOES come true, though... now you look like a genius!

So in that spirit, some of the Canal Street Chronicles writers were asked to share with me a bold prediction for the Week 10 of the regular season for the New Orleans Saints: at home versus the defending Super Bowl Champion Denver Broncos. This is their chance to look brilliant!

Here are a few of the bold predictions provided by some of the contributors at Canal Street Chronicles:

• Rankins Breakout - Rookie DT Sheldon Rankins gets two sacks in the game.
• Ingram back-to-back - Mark Ingram has a second straight week of 150 yards on the ground.
• Broncos D has first - Saints are first team to get a 100+ yard receiver in a game against Denver’s secondary.
• Need for Snead - Willie Snead is the Saints leading receiver.

Here are my three bold predictions for the game:

• Broncos offense held to less than 200 total yards.
