Free Sports Picks Analysis: New Orleans and QB Drew Brees (2006 yds, 16-6 ratio, 107.6) will hold a big edge over Carolina QB Jake Delhomme (1262 yds, 5-13 ratio, 59.3) and Carolina’s offense (#1-#23). For all of the talk of New Orleans having a vastly improved defense they only hold a slight advantage over Carolina (#20-#23). Carolina has a decent pass-rush with DE Julius Peppers flying off the edge and should disrupt the Saints aerial game. Carolina’s power-running game with RB DeAngelo Williams (792 yds, 4.8, 5 td) and Jonathan Stewart (449 yds, 4.9, 4 td) should be able to have some success against the Saints run D that allows 4.4 yards per carry Carolina’s passing game will be stifled by a Saints D that allows a 53.3 passer rating but they may use some Wildcat formations to maximize their running attack.
