Atlanta Falcons vs. New Orleans Saints

Atlanta Falcons to beat the 12 point spread against New Orleans Saints

After being tested by the Miami Dolphins last week I feel the Saints are going to have another tough game against the Falcons. The Saints defense was exposed last week by Miami's running game and I see the Falcon's Mike Turner to have a break through game. After last years pro bowl season Mike Turner has had a down year, but I see him coming through here with over 100 yards.

The Falcons have more to play for in this game than the Saints because they are trailing them by 2 games in the division standings. This game is Atlanta's "Super Bowl" if you will, because if they don't win this game it will be very hard for them to win the division.

Look for Atlanta's QB Matt Ryan to have comparable stats to the Saints QB Drew Brees as this game is closer than the experts think.

Atlanta Falcons +12 -105@bodog

[Sharkl11]

I don't grasp what SF/Indy result has to do with the potential outcome of this game, or how it being on MNF relates to Saints ability to cover the spread.

This from the same person though who cannot understand how the Carolina team that hosed me last week vs. BUFFALO goes to Arizona and handles the Cardinals (and pretty impressively at that) managing to break it off in me again but, just....the opposite way. Whatever though. I bet Saints on Tuesday, SBROdds.com shows line opened at Saints -9 but I never saw no 9. I'm seeing 11.5 and some 12s now and 5Dimes is showing -13.5 as I type this .

Atlanta is rushing for 3.6 yard avg per rush attempt (26th in league) 102.8 yds/game (19th in league). Saints rush defense: 4.0 yd. average allowed per rush (13th) giving up 92.3 yds/game (8th).

Atlanta pass defense allowing 250.7 yards per game (26th in league), rush defense allowing 4.6 yards per rush (also 26th in league).

How is it Brees isn't gonna light these dudes up?

The above from Stats.com http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/foo...ns-saints.html

more there of course and at http://www.sbrodds.com/MatchupsForm....9&rotation=233 debatably better stuff


From Saints website:

Brees has 27,956 passing yards for his career, which places him in 44th place all-time in NFL history. With 34 yards passing he will move past Terry Bradshaw into 43rd place. With 235 yards he would move past Ron Jaworski, one of the ESPN color analysts that will be working the game.

Yeah....the Superdome may get a bit loud . First time theres been a Saints team with this much real potential.

[JAHgger4noz]

GL guys but -11.5 is just too much for a MNF game. I dont think double digits fare too well the last couple years on MNF but with an offense like Brees and company, that -11.5 could easily be shattered....like ZBOIZ predicted score.

But I'll take those tasty-almost-dirty-dozen points....and watch an entertaining game. I'm sure I'll be in the minority but that's a load of pts for a primetime, national game. Man, not that much respect for Atlanta's D. NO's offense is downright scary but Atlanta can pile up some points too. Also a big Division game.
Just get the game started. Cool down the beer, pile on the wings and ribs and play that MNF theme song. Atlanta +11.5

[20Four7]

Saints 48

Falcons 21

I'm dead serious with this score. Atlanta pass defense is not that good, also that dome will be rocking!!

more like saints; 32
Falcons 23

[BrownTown]

I put Indy offense 2nd to NO offense. NO offense has more options that is very true. I say that NO has to start off with a lead and make Atlanta throw the ball to play catch up. If Atlanta gets an early score then they could play ball control and keep NO offense off the field. The key to beating New Orleans is ball control and a early lead.

Wasn't this the Jets gameplan against the Saints?

How'd that work out?

[zubzub]

GL guys but -11.5 is just too much for a MNF game. I dont think double digits fare too well the last couple years on MNF

Again, I don't get how one bases a wager on stuff like this. Its, like, "The Beat Goes On" wagering strategy? Just makes no sense to me. How exactly does whatever ahs happened on MNF over whatever period of time have any bearing on this football game?

I'll take those tasty-almost-dirty-dozen points.... Atlanta +11.5

You need multiple books ("outs"), shop for the best number, there were 12.5s all over the place when you posted this, and consider betting dogs as near to kickoff as possible. Often get the best number(s) then. Not always but often enough.

[Pin Fish]

Saints -9.5 (bought 1.5)
Over 53.5 (bought 1.5)
Parlay Saints and Over

I think the Saints got their wake up call last week against the Phish. Now they are at home .........the dome will be rockin and so will D.B. and company....Atlanta has lost too many on their defense this year due to injury and FA and it shows...a little concerned about a back door cover but I see this game 40's for NO 20's for ATL


Now I just have tro hope Lang is not on the Saints

[Skidcom]

Seems high to me too IMNSHO

[ZBOIZ]

Up to 12.5 now

[lakerboy]

3-0 Saints final.

[Housemoney]

Need some advice from the experienced gamblers. I have a dime on the Saints -9. Yesterday put me @ $700 in the hole. The line keeps moving up and I might have to consider a middle. How big of a middle do you need for it to become the smart play.

[paco]

Starting to think ATL is the play

[investor]

the spread will still jump higher... i think i'll wait till right before kick off and take atlanta and the points.

[Gundog]

You are right on Investor the spread will jump higher, everyone is laying the wood on N.O.
At this point in time i think N.O. is the team TO Beat in the NFL.

[paco]

10 point 3 teamer with atl +23, saints -3, over 45
