Line: Saints by 2 1/2

Packers: Green Bay ran the ball against the Bears last week, and may have to do it against the Saints to win as well. Packers' defense has scored seven TDs, three short of NFL record.

Saints: Drew Brees will be challenged by a tough Packers secondary, but if Reggie Bush makes it back from a knee injury, the offense could have a big night.

Player to watch: Packers Greg Jennings has 48 catches, five TDs. Saints receiver Lance Moore (52 catches, five TDs) has TD in past three games.

Injuries: Saints running back Aaron Stecker (hand) is out for the season.

Prediction: Saints 34, Packers 30
