Why for the first half....got some reasoning behind this or just throwing it out there

I would rather win something in 90 minutes and not wait for a full 3 hours. I would also win with a tie at halftime. I can still lose on a game tied and goin into OT. I look at how teams do in first half of games. Last week, browns covered the spread against the falcons in the first half and the eagles covered the first half spread against the 49ers. Eagles are really banged on the offensive line and at QB. Falcons failed to score a first half touchdown last week at cleveland. Falcons will score a first half touchdown on sunday and that is all that will be needed for a first half cover.

I like the falcons in the first half.

Eagles won last meeting 34-7 in 09. Falcons were without Matt Ryan, Michael Turner and DT Peria Jerry in that game. Falcons defense has improved with the return of Jerry this season. Eagles are really banged up on offense and defense. Eagles have defeated falcons five of last six meetings. Falcons also had an east coast game against the browns on sunday while the eagles played a sunday night game at san francisco that did not finish until approximately midnight. This is huge advantage for the falcons. Falcons were held without a touchdown in the first half against the browns last week. Falcons trailed 7-6 at halftime to the browns. Falcons settled for 2 field goals in the first half. Falcons are goin to score a touchdown in the first half. Falcons probably score 2 tds in the first half. I also think falcons are going to win a blowout.
