We have two explosive offenses merging tonight in the NFL opener that will be a high scoring game.

Aaron Rodgers has all his weapons in the passing game back from the Super Bowl winning team and it’s a unit that put up over 30 points per game in their 9 home games a season ago.

Green Bay will spread the field and Rodgers can pin point a target because he has excellent complimentary receivers to his big deep threats in Donald Driver and Greg Jennings.

Jordy Nelson has emerged in this Packers offense and now the team strengthens with the return of Jermichael Finley at tight end.

The Saints add a new dynamic to their offense with running backs Darren Sproles and Mark Ingram added to their mix.

Ingram and Sproles can keep opposing defenses off balance as they must account for Sproles speed in the passing game after the catch and with Ingram’s ability to run between the tackles.

It’s that inside outside threat in the backfield that was missing in last year’s club.

Jimmy Graham is a big target for Drew Brees at tight end and has the size and hands to make that difficult catch in third down situations.

Offenses shine tonight.

Bet New Orleans Saints and Green Bay Packers over 47 1/2 points.

As we now move into the third week of the NFL preseason you will see starters play deeper in the second half.

Behind Drew Brees and his explosive cast around him the team has looked good moving the football up and down the field.

Led by Pierre Thomas and first round pick Mark Ingram that Saints running back corps has looked good as the team in the preseason is putting up 125 offensive yards per game.

The Raider defense has not defended the run this preseason as the club is giving up nearly 175 yards per game on the ground in the preseason which will set up big plays from Drew Brees and company in play action situations.

Too much offensive talent from the Saints offense and the Raiders will not be able to compete on the scoreboard in front a national audience.

Bet New Orleans Saints -4 1/2 points.
