The Broncos are off one of the most impressive wins of the season as they made historic Monday Night Football comeback to beat the Chargers. The Broncos rode that wave of energy into a bye week and that is good news for the Broncos. 2012 NFL teams coming out of the bye are on a 7-2 against the spread (ATS) before the Monday night game and the Broncos are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following a bye week.

Peyton Manning is a master at quarterback and he is even better when he gets extra time to prepare for a team. The Saints defense may be one of the worse units in all of football.

The Broncos are weak against the run, but can defend the pass. The Broncos enter this week’s matchup against the Saints with one of the NFL’s better pass defenses. They rank No. 10 in passing defense, allowing 215.3 yards per game, and No. 18 in run defense, allowing 118.2 yards per game. This will not be a problem as the Saints have the league’s worst run game this season. They’re averaging only 76.2 rushing yards per game.

The Saints have a great offense, but will have to score nearly every time if they hope to outscore the Broncos. The Saints are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games in Week 8 and their defense will fail them once again.

The Broncos crush the Saints and easily cover the number with a double-digit victory.
