The Saints desperately need a win as they are 0-2 and this will be their first home game of the season so they should be inspired to play well.  The Titans are 1-1 on the season and they are the kind of physical football team that gives the finesse Saints team fits.   The Titans will attack the Saints on the ground as the Saints are allowing 125.5 yards rushing per game.  Chris Brown (209 yards rushing), LenDale White (130 yards rushing) and Vince Young (75 yards rushing) will likely follow their offensive line right down the field as the Saints linebackers are soft.  Look for the Titans to take a few shots down the field to Brandon Jones and Roydell Williams as the Saints allow opposing QBs to have a 137.1 Rating.

The Saints will likely try to pass to take advantage of the Titans secondary which is allowing 248.5 yards passing per game.  The Saints would like to get the lead in the air and then grind out a victory on the ground with Reggie Bush and Deuce McAllister.  If the Saints get the lead early it will take the Titans out of their preferred mode of transportation on offense which is the running game.

PREDICTION:  I think the Saints will play a good football game on Monday Night and I think the crowd will inspire them to win the game by a field goal.
