Packers: 3 bold predictions for Week 3 game vs. Saints

Three bold predictions for the Packers ahead of a huge Week 3 showdown.

After two victories to begin the season, the Green Bay Packers have a daunting task ahead as they visit the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in a meeting with the New Orleans Saints. This should be an entertaining contest between two teams aiming to get back to the Super Bowl.

There are some parallels between the two teams. Both have future Hall-of-Famers at quarterback. Both QBs have one Super Bowl ring and are still aiming to get back to the big game. Both teams also have star running backs who are as talented as pass catchers as they are between the tackles. It’s also possible both teams will be missing their star wide receivers in this game.

Green Bay enters Week 3 looking to earn another huge road victory, maintaining its undefeated start to the season. New Orleans aims to get back on track after a disappointing road loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday night. The Saints are at home but they are also playing on a short week.

What can we expect from this matchup, which is easily one of the toughest on the Packers’ schedule? Will the Packers remain undefeated? Here are three bold predictions for the Packers in Week 3.
