The Coach's 10* NFL Sunday GAMEDAY - CAR@NO
(NFL) Carolina vs. New Orleans,
Point Spread: -9.50 | -115.00 New Orleans (Home)
Result: Loss
The New Orleans Saints have failed to impress at home this year, losing to the likes of Cincinnati, Baltimore and San Francisco. They did beat the Packers pretty handily though, and they return home off an impressive win on the road at Pittsburgh. New Orleans should have little trouble blowing out the struggling Panthers today.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Cam Newton - Over his last five starts, Newton has thrown for five TDs and a whopping eight INTs. He hasn't been 100% healthy, battling lingering ailments all year long.

2. Drew Brees - He's coming off his best game of the season, throwing for five TDs in the win at Pittsburgh. He's averaged 384 yards with a total of 19 TDs winning all six of his home starts versus Carolina.

3. X-Factor - The Saints are 25-10 ATS in their last 35 home games.

Selection: This is a play on the New Orleans Saints (8*)
