4. Saints Will Record At Least 2 Turnovers
The Los Angeles Chargers defense is supposed to be one of the strengths of the team. Thus far on the year, they haven’t been as opportunistic as many expected. While, they did intercept Tom Brady for a touchdown, they have only forced 2 interceptions on the year.
The defensive front has recorded 6 sacks through the first quarter of the season and will need to get pressure on Brees in this one if they want to have a chance to win.
Joey Bosa leads this team with 3 sacks and on Monday Night, I expect him to have 2 more. One of those will be a strip-sack.
The other turnover will come through the air as I think Drew Brees will throw one interception in this game. The Saints are expecting WR Michael Thomas, to make his return in his game. The Chargers will have to be aware of both Kamara and Thomas, so forcing turnovers will play a crucial factor in this one.
