Barry Hirstius of Big Easy Believer‘s prediction: Toss up

"It’s a toss-up. The Lions beat the Saints at the Superdome last year, a game that in years past the Saints probably would have won easily — with or without the Lions having Megatron. The Saints should be improved over what they’ve been in recent seasons, but they’re nowhere near being one of the top-tiered teams in the NFC that they were several years ago. It will be a “winnable” game for either team, when they finally meet."

Lions’ record: 2.5-11.5
