Los Angeles has a very strong QB rotation for the preseason in Justin Herbert and Chase Daniel. Daniel has thrown for 228 yards, three TDs, and no picks in two preseason games. The offense has averaged 20 points behind a deep wide receiver corps featuring Josh Palmer and Michael Bandy. They're an underdog to a New Orleans squad that has sleep-walked through two exhibition games, losing 17-13 to Houston and 20-19 to Green Bay. Saints starting QB Jameis Winston is dealing with a foot injury and won't play. QB Andy Dalton skipped Week 2 and has played just one drive while third-string QB Ian Book played the whole game last week and threw for just 113 yards with an interception. The defense lost both starting safeties in the offseason in Marcus Williams and Malcolm Jenkins, and the run defense has struggled this August allowing 99 and 178 rushing yards. They are on a 1-4 SU, 0-5 ATS preseason run and are 1-4 ATS in their five preseason games as chalk. Back Los Angeles.
