The New Orleans Saints are making their annual lets-play-football-on-a-holiday spot later this evening. While Sean Payton and the Saints have historically fared well during their holiday games of late, that’s expected to come to a screeching halt tonight.
While the New Orleans Saints have had issues and injuries (including most recently to running back Alvin Kamara and the majority of the offensive line), the Buffalo Bills have been able to stay generally healthy. That could be a major reason why the Saints 6.5 point underdogs heading into the game (a margin that has only grown as the week has progressed).
