    Atlanta Falcons Are The Play Tonight!

    I know--the Saints are on fire, Brees, Kamara, etc. But scheduling and emotion greatly favor the Falcons tonight. The home team on Thursday always has an advantage, and the Falcons are in that dreaded must-win situation.

    This is an intense rivalry, but I'm going with the Dirty Birds tonight. Apparently I'm not alone as they have gone from +1.5 to -2.5. The line will probably be a FG by game time. Bet it now. ATLANTA -2.5

    As always, best of luck
    Harry

    I'm on it as well, Harry!......actually the line opened up at Atlanta (+2.5)....not that it really matters...this is my best bet of the week...I think the Saints will lose because they are on a short week and on the road against an angry Falcons team that lost a tough, hard fought game to probably the best team in the NFC against the Vikings...also the Saints are somewhat dinged up and the Falcons are relatively healthy...the "X" factor in this game will be Julio Jones...I think he goes off tonight after being shutdown by Minny...also Atlanta gets back CB Desmond Trufant who is out of concussion protocol...that will be a huge boost for the Falcons defense...

    Lol, if you think this line will go to a field goal you are a fool - no way it gets there if there is not injury news. The line move is likely people trying to manipulate the line to bet both sides at plus money.

    Hey, Moron, didn't you read Shari's post about not being a dik during the Holidays. I actually made my bet at Atlanta -1, but when I started the thread the line had moved to -2.5......and I still liked Atlanta.

    Rather than be a know-it-all Dbag like you're being in this thread, why don't you tell us who you like at the current odds of Atlanta -2/52?

    Lol, I don't think that saying betting a team at -2 that was +2 yesterday is a bad idea is being a know it all - it is common sense. I bet and posted my pick on this game 3 days ago - New Orleans +1.

    Why didn't you bet saints ml? What is the point of the+1? How likely are they to lose by 1?

    I bet the opening lines before there was a moneyline because I thought that line would move

    Sounds like you have a double standard. You bet N.O at +1 when you could've waited and gotten +2.5, but you say I'm a fool for taking Atlanta at the current line -1 when I supposedly could've gotten +2.5 yesterday. Why didn't you anticipate the line movements that you say we should have seen?

    Underrated defense vs an overrated offense. Saints D allowing 27% 3rd Down conversions last 3 games, including at Rams, could be an issue for Sarkisian tonight. And Atlanta’s D giving up 43% at home will be a problem for Quinn and Manuel.

    This guy doesn’t count pushes on his records because they “only change the percentage a couple points”. Think about that before arguing with him or getting offended.

    Lol, I don't count pushes because I don't track my win percentage daily, I track wins and losses. Pushes don't move my bankroll.

    Yeah square take, Saints defensive stats with a healthy Lattimore and Bradley against most shit competition don't matter here. Look at what New England and Minnesota did to this Saints defense. Rams moved the ball easily on the Saints.

    Yeah, fuking square - its called scalping. By the way since I'm hitting at over 58% in the NFL counting pushes - how about posting some picks instead of calling people names and giving out square takes. I would be shocked to see you make any money betting.

    Well since you asked I’m hitting 69% in the NFL but that’s not counting pushes or losses over 7 because that’s obviously variance and I don’t track my win percentage daily. Plus I’m not a drama queen who needs to post plays to stroke my unbelievable ego.

    Yeah, where are you tracking - you aren't in any of the NFL contests I can see- beat the prick or beat the bag. Sounds like another bullshit claim from a square who can't make shit betting. I don't have a big ego - not that I care, I post my picks to track them. I am also in great shape in my NFL futures wagers, many I have not posted here.
