Usually its 53.5 or 54..5 is usually the norm between these two. 56.5 is probably thr highest you'll see.
Sip on that plus money honey!

I think the same could be said about NO playing the Jets last week. It was 24-19 at the two minute warning but the Saints did just enough to win the game. I think the total will be in the low 50's for this game. (52) Atlanta was very lucky to win at home in the first meeting and I fully expect NO to come out on fire at this Sunday. At this point I definately like NO to win the game but not sure about covering the 5.5. Still have lots of homework to do before commiting to anything.

One last comment is that Atlanta just doesn't look right this season. Just when they take a step forward, they take one back again. With all the injuries to Tampa's D last night by rights that game shouldn't have been close....but it was.

 

You learn more from losing than winning. You learn how to keep going.

Bryce Petty-led Jets played the Saints close on Sunday @ NO, 5 point game late in 4th before Ingrams' 50 yard TD run

New Orleans also looked a bit sloppy this week turning the ball over 3 times (i gave -16.5 so i watched this game closely lol)

I think the mistakes are fixable for Saints, 2 of the turnovers were WR fumbles, Falcons defense will have trouble with the Saints offense

On the other side, Atlanta is finally realizing they need to give Freeman 20 touches per game, i know Coleman was out, but Freeman been busier since missing really 3 games to concussion and has been running hard since, what scares me is the health of Julio, he looked like he was an old man after each play he was involved in

Id give an edge to Saints this week, being at home, but im looking elsewhere of my bets, better games on the docket to bet

PB I have watched a lot of the saints this year.  They are much stronger defensively than in the past years.  Love their secondary.   They are super agreesive under Dennis Allen.  They put a lot of trust in man coverage especially in their blitz happy scheme.  Lattimore on a bad wheel took out Julio last game.  They do however struggle against the run.  I think Matt Ryan should be able to eat the blitz alive if they get run game and play action off it going.  Leading toward high scoring game.  

Saints on offense were slowed down vs the the rams after kamara ripped off an early 1q run and then did a decent job against the two rbs rest of game.  Key to stopping their offense is to stop kamara and Ingram in the passing game.  Without kamara vs Atlanta last time their offense struggled mightily. Jets did a good job of it last week in the 2h for a time and then Brees started focusing on connecting with Michael Thomas who is underrated in my opinion.  I wonder if Atlanta will be able to shut down backs again or if kamara goes off?

I’m with you thinking adjustments will be made by both offenses and should be a high scoring game

The thing is, the Saints put the effort in and basically won that Falcons game, given away by the refs. So you have to believe they can beat them 2x in a row. Hopefully they don't send someone to take out Kamara again. The spread doesn't scare me personally though, i think if the Saints take it, they take it hard

I'm hearing Morelli will be throwing flags on the Eagles during the Saints/Falcons game. Should be confusing for everyone.

Something definitely wrong with Julio Jones, not only physically but I think he's also worn down mentally. He's not finishing his routes like usual and has dropped a lot of balls. And Matt Ryan's throws to numerous guys have been late and/or inaccurate. Neither are playing with confidence.

Not sure about an over in this match up but if it goes over it won't be Matty " Ice "throwing TDs it will Be the Bree's putting the freeze on the the Ice this time around no lucky last minute interceptions this time just a little revenge at home and Brees and the boys win convincingly !!!

Guys please help me with this one. This seems to good to be true, Saints -5.5. I'm serious, I have to be missing something. I just don't see ATL hanging within a TD of the Saints at home at this point.
Anytime I feel this sure it scares me but I think anything under 7 is a great bet.
