    Week 7 of the NFL season begins with an interconference game between the Denver Broncos and the New Orleans Saints, two teams looking to get back on track after mediocre starts. The game marks the return to New Orleans for new Denver coach Sean Payton, who coached the Saints for 15 years.

    Denver’s three-game winning streak ended with a loss to the Chargers, dropping the Broncos to 3-3. Meanwhile, the Saints have lost four straight since their win over the Dallas Cowboys.

    This will likely be a battle of rookie quarterbacks, as the Saints’ Derek Carr is likely out due to injury, making room for Spencer Rattler. Former Oregon star Bo Nix is ​​at the helm of the Broncos.

    The game is expected to be competitive and low-scoring as the Broncos are the away favorite by 2 1/2 points. The over-under of 37 is the lowest of the 15 NFL games this week.
