00:00All right, Monday Night Football tonight will close out week number 16.

00:09It will be up in Lambeau for the Saints and the Packers this evening.

00:14Saints, of course, have had all kinds of problems this year.

00:17Well, I guess they did.

00:18They started 2-0.

00:19Remember when the Saints were going to the Super Bowl back in September when they got

00:23off to that 2-0 start?

00:25It has not been good since.

00:27They're 3-9 since then and find themselves in bad shape.

00:31The Packers are 10-4 and they will be on their way to the playoffs.

00:36The Packers tonight lay in a big 14-1 in this game.

00:42A total 43-1.

00:44Spencer Rattler will start for the Saints tonight.

00:48I actually think they can cover the number.

00:50I think the Packers will take them lightly.

00:53I think they'll screw around.

00:55Same way you saw yesterday.

00:58The Pats did it with 14.

01:00I'll take the 14.

01:01I don't think Rattler's that bad.

01:03I think he can throw the ball.

01:05And I know they got other issues.

01:06They got injuries, etc.

01:08But I bet the Pack played down to them and don't blow them out.

01:12I think they won't cover.

01:14Yeah, what worries me with the Saints is I don't think Rattler's that bad.

01:20I don't like that they're not going to have Kamara.

01:23Kamara does so much for them.

01:25And him not in there makes me worried about them moving the football consistently.

01:30But 14-1, we saw it yesterday with the Patriots.

01:33It's a very big number.

01:35And I have this for you, of course.

01:36You love numbers.

01:37Monday Night Football in the last 20 years, double-digit favorites on Monday Night Football.

01:44Not great.

01:4529%.

01:4613-32-2 against the spread.

01:50So the dogs bark in these spots on Monday night, especially late in the season.

01:57So we will take our chance there with the Saints tonight.
