Well here we are again, Week 6....this week we have the New Orleans Saints (0-4) visiting the Seattle Seahawks (3-2). On paper these teams are very much equal so lets break it down.

Saints are entering Week 6 winless since last season which is strange since they basically have the same squad as last year. Week 1 they faced the Colts a game that was supposed to be a Super Bowl preview, the Saints faltered allowing 41 points, they then allowed 31 twice in weeks 2 & 3 to the Bucs and Titans, their closest game this season was last week when they allowed 16 points to the injury plagued Panthers.

Brees has one passing touchdown with a dismal 9 interceptions while posting a 57.4 rating, Reggie Bush has two TD's while a 2.9 average is okay his attempts are low with only 50 for the season.

The Saints have not yet found their groove in 2007 while they were poised to be a serious contender for the NFC. This week will not be any easier as they travel to the Pacific Northwest where the Seahawks have only lost 6 games since the 2003 season.

The Seahawks are coming off quite a week. They were humbled by Pittsburgh 21-0, their first shut out in 7 years in a game that lost Branch for two weeks with an ankle sprain and forced Mack Strong into retirement.

The Hawks defense has been very impressive this year holding many high scoring offenses down an example would be the Steelers only scoring 21 points when the defense was on the field for 41 minutes. Their offense has been less than impressive though Matt's QB rating is in the 90's it is their running game that is just killing them. Seattle is flying under the radar of most teams at 3-2 but with 4 of the next 5 games at home they could rally and be 8-2 however that will take dedication to improving the offense and establishing a running game. Mo Morris should be back this week and take alot of pressure of Shaun.

Quest Field will be loud this week and with a nervous Saints team that should result in several penalties and hopefully a few mistakes that will help Seattle win this game. My prediction is Seattle wins 28-10.
