I think after looking at this game that the Falcons is the selection.
I think this line is way off and is partially set with the fact that New Orleans is a fast, sleek, athletic, team with star player potential.
When people think of New Orleans they think of last years cinderella team and the beating they gave Dallas last year on national Tv and perhaps Seattle this year.
Saints are laying -3.5 and they are very one dimensional team. I give an edge to defence to the Falcons and an edge to offence for the Saints.
A lot of what the Saints did was with REggie BUSH. ALthough he was not very succesfull, his presence in there made the D's adjust and play the perimeters and be weary of blitzing cause a screen pass could kill them.
Falcons if they had a decent QB, with a decent offence would be in first place no doubt about that. This is a team that has just not scored a lot of points but had chances for sure.
Teams that play New Orleans the first time struggle with them usually especially if they cannot handle all the motion and gadget plays by them. Some teams cannot keep BUSH off the edge and they get beaten. I think that the Saints are easy to figure out as they are a One man show in COLSTON, stop him and stop HENDERSON from the 2 deep bombs BREES will throw and you stop their Offence.
I think with no threat of really running that well, it will be easy to pressure BREES and cover COLSTON.
Also Saints have the worst DB in the league in Jason DAVID, Falcons will have big play opportunities vs this guy, every other teams #1 wideout has had a 100 yard game and long td's like over 50 yards. I hope Roddy WHITE can beat this guy deep. Saints are weak vs the Pass, anyone remember what Reggie Wayne did to them in the first week, Andre Johnson, Joey Galloway, Tory HOLT all abused DAVID, beating him for long Td's.
When I look at the game I see the following:
ATL is playing at home- advantage ATL
ATL has the better D- Advantage ATL
Saints has better O- Advantage SAINTS
ATL run ball better- Advantage ATL
I think the Saints are favored for their potential to explode on O, which they have not done consistently this year. I really think the loss of BUSH and the loss last week will hurt them. They remind me of CHICAGO and pHILLY teams that always have a must win game every week and then fall flat on their face. There will be plenty of support for the Saints because the public is in love with BREES and COLSTON.
Atl should get a win in these last 3 games, and this is as good a week to do it, in my opinion as it is a revenge game vs a team that you already outplayed and is missing their best offensive weapon.
Bottom line- I cannot take a one dimensional team, with a bad pass D with the worst DB in the NFL starting for you. Anyone who does not think REDMAN can pass well, look at Luke MCKNOWN he ripped them apart, this pass D has problems, it is very ver bad vs the pass.
Taking ATL +3.5 and also a unit on the Moneyline
