That's because their defense is averaging 25 pts. a game but against high scoring teams (Bucs, Redskins, Broncos and 49'ers) and their offense averages 27.75 pts. per game.
The Vikings on the other hand averages 20.5 pts. on defense against (Packers, Colts, Panthers and Titans who score 30 pts.) but their offense is only putting up a mere 17.75 pts a game.
The most pts. the Vikes have scored thus far is 20 against the Panthers while the Saints have scored 32 albeit an atrocious defense in the Broncos.
Bottom line is Gus is not going to beat the Saints and knowing that, the Saints will just stack the box against AP. However; that being said, I hope both defense cough up many points as this will bode well for me in my fantasy football league
