4. Saints offensive line will have a bad day against Giants pass rush

The Giants do have one advantage against the Saints, and that is they face off against a depleted offensive line.

New Orleans was dealt brutal news this past Monday, when reports indicated that starting left tackle Terron Armstead will be out for several weeks due to an elbow injury suffered against the Patriots. Not to mention that center Erik McCoy missed the past two contests due to a calf injury, and it is unknown if he will be ready to play in Week 4.

Winston has been under constant duress in the past two weeks, after going untouched against the Green Bay Packers in Week 1. The former first-overall pick was sacked four times against the Panthers and three times against the Patriots. They now face a Giants team that did record six sacks through their first three games. Rookie Azeez Ojulari will be a name to remember, as he recorded a sack in each of his first three games.

With a porous offensive line, the Saints will likely give up five sacks on the day.
