Broncos Hope to Continue Winning Ways Away From Home
The Denver Broncos are 3-3 this season, coming off of a home loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in their last outing in Week 6. Denver has dealt with a lack of consistency offensively this year, as a product of rolling with rookie quarterback Bo Nix. But Nix has shown flashes of brilliance this season and will look to move his team to 3-1 on the road with a win in this matchup. With wins over the Jets and Buccaneers on the road already this season, Nix and the Broncos defense have both stepped up at times away from Denver and they will aim to do so again on Thursday Night Football.
Saints Aim to Snap Losing Streak at Home
Lately, the New Orleans Saints have been playing some dreadful football. They have lost four games in a row, falling to 2-4 on the season. And with quarterback Derek Carr dealing with an oblique injury, the Saints could be without their starting quarterback for the second game in a row. Backup quarterback Spencer Rattler wasn’t bad in the first half of his first start as a Saint against the Atlanta Falcons. But things went off the rails for Rattler and the Saints defense in the second half of that contest, something they will need to prevent to get a win here.
Broncos vs Saints Best Bet
No matter who is starting at quarterback this week for the Saints, we will take New Orleans to win at home on Thursday Night Football. Asking Nix to deliver on a short week on the road in this Broncos vs Saints contest is a tall task for a rookie and we expect him to falter, while the Saints defense should turn things around after giving up 51 points to the Bucs in Week 6.
