Excuse the dumb question, but does anyone know why they are favored? Are the Saint's starters sitting out?

It's the exhibition game, Drew Brees and the starters will not play for majority of the game. Can't treat this as a regular season matchup. i like Texans -2.

That's only too obvious. Seasoned degenerates clearly don't expect Matt Shaub and the HOU starters to play much either.

Yeah 10 minutes after the opening line of Saints -2.5 came out, it was bet down to Saints -1.5, and now it's at Houston -2.5. Thats a 5 point swing in a matter of 2 short hours.  Someone knows something.

After Ben Tate getting hurt and out for the season, maybe Kubiak will sit out the starters early too.

It's so obvious that dedending Super Bowl Champ. +2 at home opener is as sweet you can taste.

But this isn't a regular season after all.
