Sportsbook: Saints open with second-best odds in Week 1

The New Orleans Saints are heavily favored to win their home opener for the 2019 NFL season, per online sportsbook BetOnline. The Saints will host the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, and they’ve picked up a lot of early confidence. They’re favored by 7.5 points, with an over/under of 54 — the highest score prediction of Week 1. That implies a final score of 31-23 (rounded from 30.75-23.25), with the Saints winning handily.

Only one team is favored more strongly than the Saints: the Philadelphia Eagles, who will host Washington in their home opener.
