Undeterred by Michael Thomas injury, 90% of experts pick Saints over Raiders

With superstar wide receiver Michael Thomas expected to miss several weeks due to an ankle injury, it would be understandable if NFL experts weren’t riding too high on the New Orleans Saints in their upcoming game with the Las Vegas Raiders.

But that’s not the case. With or without Thomas, 90% of experts surveyed by NFL Pickwatch are picking the Saints to win again in Week 2. Just 10% of those in the know are siding with the Raiders on Friday. So that could be a good confidence boost for Saints fans.
