The NFL season is quickly approaching! Mandatory Mini Camps are here, and the Hall-of-Fame game between the Los Angeles Chargers and Detroit Lions takes place at the end of next month. We’re taking a look at all 32 NFL teams and our best bets for each prior to the 2025 season kicking off. The New Orleans Saints are up next, so let’s take a look at this edition of the 2025 NFL Best Bets: New Orleans Saints.
Big changes in New Orleans as Kellen Moore comes in fresh off winning the Super Bowl to take over as the Head Coach. Derek Carr retired, and the Saints selected Tyler Shough with the 40th overall pick in the NFL Draft. Alvin Kamara isn’t getting any younger, and Chris Olave comes with injury concerns.
2025 NFL Best Bets: New Orleans Saints
Saints Under 5.5 Wins (-135)
This is an easy one for me. I don’t typically advocate for tanking, but this team is horrible. Lose games and get Arch Manning to pair up with Kellen Moore. Yes please. It’ll be hard for the Saints to even sniff six wins this year.
2025 NFL Best Bets: New Orleans Saints
Saints Record After 5 Weeks – 0-5 (+450)
Sorry, Saints fans. It’s hard to see the positives here in New Orleans this season. Starting Tyler Shough isn’t scaring anyone. They face Arizona, San Francisco, Seattle, Buffalo, and the Giants to start the season. All teams that should be a fair bit better than them.
Alvin Kamara Over 750.5 Rushing Yards (-110)
Kamara is one of the few solid options for the team to lean on, and he doesn’t have much for competition. He’s only not reached this total one time since 2018.
